Update (sorry for the delay)



Hello everybody!

I am doing great here. We are on the last week and a half of the lecture/class phase of the DTS. on the 22nd I will be flying home for Christmas and coming back on the 30th. We leave for the US stateside outreach on the 3rd of Jan, and for South Korea on the 14th.
For the Stateside we will be going to Morris, IL. We will be doing work at a teen/youth mission there.
I am really excited about the outreach to South Korea. We will be speaking/preaching at churches, refugee camps, and youth events. Some of the people in our group will be teaching english. we have a few different dramas we have learned, and have formed two different worship teams. I am in two of the dramas and I am playing bass in both of the worship teams.
we have been recently learning about the "Father Heart of God" from a man named Tom Hallas. The teaching is about how God is our father, and has the heart and love of a father for us. This week we are learning from Lud Golz about sharing our testimonies and how we do that in a practical or written way.
I am having the time of my life here, the last few weekends we have planned events for the students in the school to do. Last week we had a Scavenger Hunt, we made different groups go around town and do different crazy(not illegal), weird, and fun things. This weekend we played "Underground Church". We hid "Bibles"(boxes with aluminum tape on them) and the two teams had to find the boxes and take them back to their bases without us tagging them with our "flower bombs"(stockings filled with flour). Since I was in the group planning the event I got to play as the "government" the bad guys.
I still need your help with a lot. I am still in need of your prayers as I continue through this time and outreach. It is very important that you pray for God to be released in all that I do. Pray that God will work in the hearts of those we talk to, and work with my group in unity.
I am in need of financial support. I am still in need of another $800 for my outreach costs. And I will be needing another $3,250 in order to cover the costs of my SOE Tuition. My address is on the right side bar on the site. Please pray for the outpouring of finances so that I can continue the work that God has sent me to do.

Thank you
God Bles
