Amazon Adventure

It was certainly a trip that we were excited about…we had been holding our excitement for this experience for what seemed like forever and the time had finally arrived. We were going to spend 4 days and 3 nights on a boat on the Amazon river, sleeping in hammocks and engaging in conversations, while simultaneously looking out onto the waters and into the mystery that is the infamous Amazon rainforest. What a dream. The Lord had opened this door for us and we knew that He had a plan…like He always does of course. We arrived on the boat on Day 1, set up our hammocks and took a moment to...

Peru

How beautiful it is to be brought face to face with people, languages and cultures that are so different. Every country is richly painted with colours of its own, every language with uniquely shaped sounds we’ve never heard before… Our encounter with the Quechua people up in the mountain village of Inkawasi was one of many experiences, that opened our eyes to the vastness of cultures that walk on this earth and the various traditions that root themselves in each of those cultures. One of the things we experienced most during our time In Peru, was seeing believers that have emerged...

A Moment of Praise – Intro

We are overflowing with gratitude and we wish to impart unto you the reasons we are developing what I believe is unwavering faith. Let this be a moment of praise. To look back...

Bolivia

Bolivia

Our team experienced Bolivia a little bit different than it did all the other countries. Initially, when we were praying for our route, we felt that the Lord’s plan for us in Bolivia wasn’t ministry amongst hosts…we had gotten direction that Bolivia is where we had to go but simply to pass through. So we did a classic Global style, Luke 10. We split up into groups and headed out to get from Santa Cruz to La Paz in 6 days hitchhiking with no money, just us, our thumbs out begging for lifts, and God. Considering we were split into groups, it’s no easy task to try to summarise everyone’s...

Paraguay

Every nation always has something different to give…a different aspect of God to reveal to us, and Paraguay was no different. A common misconception is that on a year like this, the purpose is to go out and make a change, to impact rather than be impacted… but everywhere we’ve gone so far it seems to be that the nations always have so much more to give us than we could ever give… We were in Paraguay for a short week, but during this week we really saw God’s kindness and his generosity in the people around us. So many were rushing to bless us with whatever they could offer but...
