The dirt between our toes as we trudged through the mud tracks; the squinting of our eyes as another dawn succeeded to take our breath away; the brown tan on our skin after a long day in the sun: The daily attire of Zithulele.   After a month spent in the Transkei, I have a new definition of "having your world flipped upside down". On the first of March it was travel day - our team of fifteen people were half asleep in the bus and little did we know what lay ahead. It was a month where most of...

God is good!!! Praise HIS name!!! This week we had the most amazing time ever! We (the Yellow team) started to bond in a way that is only from God! He worked so awesome!!! I can not express it less!!!!! God worked with us this week in the Old Testament! So I read alot there, in Exodus, Leviticus etc. I was taught about the sacrifices, the specific ways in which God worked then, is the same way He works now!!! He is the SAME NOW, YESTERDAY< and FOREVER!!!!!!!! So it was awesome to learn new stuff, but why? Always why?...

Chile - Dreams come true Surprise Waka waka .. back in 2010 Soccer world cup we watched Uruguay vs Chile. Dressed up in red white and blue we chanted CHI CHI CHI LE LE LE Viva Chile!

China has been AMAZING. I was able to get a camera when we left Malaysia - so I thought I'd put up a photo blog:)   Leaving Malaysia we made lots lo friends on the train- though the train trips can ger very tiring- and the trains are usually jam-packed! Our team won the last challange and were able to go eat KFC- and we met a brother- it was really cool.     In China we had to catch a 32 hour train to another province the next morning. The hotels were...

The past week we've been traveling from Morocco to Senegal.During our trip since Tiznit we've had a quite an adventure. Our stay in West Sahara was amazing as we were welcomed by friends, which not only encouraged us, but also gave us the chance to pray and minister to them. We ate camel meat, for supper and watched a video clip on how the west Saharan people live in the desert.The desert culture is quite unique and it is said that there aren't any believers. The vision for West Sahara is to keep a foot in the door between North-West...

What a wonderful God we serve! Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 I’ve had it on my heart for a very long time to do a mission trip with some teens.
