November Update

We are trying to keep everyone as up to date as possible with the time we have, we recently sent out our November update email and have included an excerpt below.

November Update 2009 Well we can’t believe it, but our lecture phase of the DTS is half way through. We have been putting into practice everything we have been learning by living a life wholly given over to Jesus in a community plagued by poverty, drug addiction and broken families. In our time making friends on the streets here in Kona we have seen 7 people come to know Jesus and many healed including the immediate healing of chest pain, and a girl in our class have the deafness in one of her ears completely healed! Learning at the University of the Nations has been an incredible experience. There are over 400 students this year from over 40 different nations, in 35 years this Kona YWAM Campus alone has sent over 50,000 missionaries out to the nations. We live in the GO Centre, one of the oldest buildings on the campus on a floor with the other married couples on our DTS, living in community certainly brings its challenges but also has incredible benefits, like getting assistance removing large insects! Our eyes are beginning to turn to South Africa now, even as I write this, we will be joining our team for our first vision and strategy meeting this evening. Would you pray with us as we ask God what it looks like to go and serve the township communities outside Cape Town with the love and truth of Jesus in a way that partners with what God is already doing in that place. We want to sow seeds selflessly for the benefit of the Kingdom in that place, desiring first to bless those communities before seeking a ‘positive outreach experience’ as we know the latter will always come to pass when the first and second commandments are put at the fore in all we do.
