Finishing up Australia and Heading into the Philippines
| by archiveworldraceblogs
Australia will most definitely be a month to remember. God fiercely struck a nerve of initiative with me and showed what it should look like if I finally would go out see what needed to be done and executed it. Through the visits of the nursing home, mental hostile, refugee churches, Philippine church, painting houses, street evangelism, and other works among those: God taught me to never settle and give 110%. The passion to win souls for Christ burns ever so deeply within me!!!!!!!! Australia to me will always be remembered as the month of initiative!!!!!!
Now heading into the Philippines I am so ready to continue doing God’s work!! This week for our squad has been a week of debrief!! So after leaving Australia, we had two days of traveling to the Philippines. We had a long night of sleeping in the airport, another day of flying, and a couple of hours of a bus drive to our debrief destination. We were all tired and we were told to rest!!! However, little did we know what was in store for us!!!! As soon as we pull up to our destination we were greeted by the best gift possible, love!!!!! As soon as we got of the bus we were met by tons of children and people greeting us and wanting to know who we were!!! So instead of resting we immediately set our things into our rooms and begin to hang out with the children. We played basketball with the children for like hours. That most definitely was the most important game I’ve ever played because it
was for the kingdom!!!
This week of debrief has been a good week of rest. Even though I’m technically supposing to be resting I still was given opportunities to minister to people. As much as I wanted to rest and I can never take a day off from being a follower of Christ! It’s just not possible!!! A friend of mine named Liz Olsen came up to me and asked me if I wanted to go feed children! When she asked me that question my heart immediately begin to fill up with joy! A deep passion of mine is to feed the homeless and do homeless ministries! So even though I was resting I could not pass up this opportunity and through participating in this ministry I found rest and peace! When I got out of the car the people there did not care about that fact that we had food, they just wanted to know who I am!!!! I have never in my life been around people that showed me that much love and just wanted to get to know me. Coming from a country where talking to strangers is wrong and stepping out of the comfort zone to talk to people you don’t know is not heard of! This was the exact opposite in the Philippines!! People and children from everywhere we went would follow us around and be friend us. Though they don’t have much of anything, and they don’t have great living conditions, they have love. To me that makes them farther along then any first world country!!!!!!! This month will be an incredible month of ministry!!!!
P.S. Please continue to support me and this ministry I currently have $5,243. The total goal is to have $13,800 I still have a ways to go but with your prayer and support I can continue this mission! God Bless!
When you sponsor a child it not only provides a hot meal, clean water, discipleship, and basic medical care for the child, it also supports their family by inviting them through the gates of the CarePoint to receive training, discipleship and mentorship.
