I’m back in Oxford for another season.

But first, let me tell you a little bit about outreach. After Thailand, the team continued to travel throughout S.E. asia including Cambodia and India. It was exciting to see how God met us in each country with people we were supposed to meet. We were able to pray for people in local villages, encourage and be encouraged by other missionaries on the field, and get a better understanding of God’s heart for each of these nations. Most of all, I enjoyed watching the students step out to meet every challenge set before them. Personally, God taught me a lot about focus. In this season of staffing, I was challenged to take my focus off of myself and on to God and what he was doing in the students I was leading. When I did this it allowed God to do much greater things in me, than I could do focusing on my own problems. I’ve learned and grown so much more in this last season, than any other time in my life and its all through the grace of God.

Our last country was India. While we were there, YWAM Oxford sent out a call for help. A new Justice focused discipleship training school was being added to our line of up schools and they needed staff. I was instantly stirred and felt that this is where God was calling me next. This last season has really grown my passion for discipleship and justice issues. Now I get to do both. I’ve been back in New Zealand for a week now and the people here are as awesome as ever. Once again, God has hand picked this staff team and I am honored to be a part of what is going on here.
