Spring DTS '10 is Officially Over

Here We Are!

This is Me and My Co-Leader Liz

This outreach to asia was one of the more exciting trips that I have gone on. I have never met so many people who were truly hungry for the gospel. Seemingly random people on the street were open and eager to hear about Jesus and the good news.

Thank you for your prayers, these made all the difference, and boy, could we tell!

Here is one story;

While helping to run an English Corner we met a women named "E" - I will call her E for security purposes. She made friends with a girl on my team instantly and from the first "hello" was already interested in what we had to say. This was no regular encounter, God had set this up!

In a country that boasts an aesthetic government, "E" had just begun reading the bible on her own initiative! A bible which had been given to her by a teacher in her high-school a few years before. Needless to say she had some real questions. "Who is this God?" She asked, and "Why are we separated from him?" And, "What must I do to be saved?"

Our mouths dropped to the floor! Before we had even arrived, God had been working in this woman's life, preparing her for this meeting. We got to share the entire gospel with her and pray with her. And as we left we prayed with her that God would continue what He was already doing in her life.

There are so many other stories like this one; stories of people who had been to church before but never understood what was going on. Or, stories of people feel overwhelming peace and joy as they enter a church for the very first time in their lives. We had the opportunity to witness such a mighty move of God in the hearts of people. These kinds of things do not happen everyday, even our contacts were astonished at the people we would meet on the streets.

Truly your prayers have changed peoples lives, thank you for being apart of this crazy things the Lord is doing in me and through the lives of the people who follow hard after him. Thanks for following me in my journey with the Lord.

Like most things in life, there is little time to breathe as we jump into what is next. Starting Friday, I will be staffing the School of Biblical Foundations and Missions. If you remember - or wish to look back - I did this school back in the fall of 2007. It has been a defining moment in my walk with Jesus and changed my life forever. I am looking forward to being even a small part of what the Lord does in young men and women's lives through this program.

New students come on the 8th. And I get to start the ride all over again. What a ride it will be!
