And so we are off! Here we go! We go because we are called, we go because there is a need and we are willing to meet that need, we go to proclaim that there is only one way to a full life, a life of meaning, but above all we go because we are loved and long to share that love. We long to see His Kingdom come and we believe with everything in us that the gospel is the power to save and so we go UNASHAMED. We go to live in all the promises that have...

Guyana: land of many waters (especially in rainy season), many many musquitos (also known as the national bird of Guyana), ALOT of jungle and ALOT of sand... Overall Guyana was one of my favorite countries so far. Guyana is like a little India in Africa but situated in South America. The beauty of the jungle is something you only dream about or see in movies. The people: le-gen-da-ry. Just to give some insight into this statement. One day our faithful mode of transportation, an old school bus, failed to start and we needed to be at the pastor's village in...
New Zealand is really great, in the physical I mean. We spent our first week in the Algies Bay Cottages, right next to the ocean. God just came and blessed us with a place where we only had to pay for the first night, with the rest of the week for free. God is so great! Our first week in India was spent in the wonderful Himalayan Mountains where we did a Veritas Bible Study module. But our whole team really needed this rest as after the Mountains we traveled to the Emmanuel Missions orphanage in Kota where we spent...
During the year you have read about a Luke 10 journey which the other teams have done. During the month of August, we as Northbound, went on our Luke 10 journey, also known as a faith journey. So this is the Lime teams journey of how God provided and what we learned through all of this.
What an experience we have had both as a team and personally during our time in Turkey. It was the country we have been in the for the longest amount of time but also the country that felt as though time flew and I would have happily stayed longer given the chance! So Istanbul was hot and humid and a little too much for the senses to cope with, but our reunion with the half of the team that spent July in Croatia whilst we were in Bosnia and Herzegovina made it all worthwhile. We had so many stories to...
Date: 23 February 2009 Place: Transkei / Alabanza, South Africa Our last couple of weeks of preparations was very blessed by a visit from Joe of Scotland, a great man and prophet of God. He taught us of Spiritual Gifts, especially the gift of Faith. In impossible moments our Lord will show His countenance before man who earnestly seeks Him. With these weeks of getting ready, my last hope of getting the necessary funds were getting low... no matter what we do, it is only the Lord who knows what we need and when we need it. The departure...
Yip, it's been quite a long road from Morocco, through Mauritania, down to Senegal!! And even though we didn't do it with 4by4's we made it, alive and well by public transport! God has been so faithful to us... Here's some pics... This was our view MOST of the time... We had a coffee break once ... GREAT, cheap, Mauritanian coffee!!! The ferry from Rosso, Mauritania, to Rosso, Senegal - crazy Africa!!! YEAH!! Did I mention something about public transport??? This is it - ALHAMDOULAHI - Praise God...
Sandra Louens thailand-hong kong This is my first time in the east and to be in hong kong and experiece the culture and people I just fell in love with it. the people are really friendly and always ready to help. during our time here God just really answered our prayers. we met a lot of people, talked to a christain women and had the opportunity to share the gospel with someone who don't yet know the Lord. one story that stand out is when we met a group of workers in a croc shop, it was awesome to share...
Half built houses, dusty road, dangerous traffic and no toilets…
Peru…
It was absolutely, so incredibly beautiful.
Getting Baptised After God brought so much freedom and healing in Guatemala, getting baptised brought even more joy and a new peace. But this is only an introduction to living in the Spirit all the time – the old Betty goes under the water and a supernatural thing happens in the Spirit and then a new creation comes out from the water. Thank you Jesus J
