Blessings From God

-
In the past 2 weeks since my last update it has been a busy time that God has blessed. Shortly after posting the last update I was contacted by several people who wished to support my ministry. God has brought my total to up to $1,902.50! Tomorrow night I will have an opportunity to go to a friends church and help out with a kids event there. The kids will be raising some support for my ministry!

I was also able to see some friends from the BI who now work at a local church This last weekend. On Saturday we were able to go caroling at two nursing homes. When I was a kid I did not like to go to nursing homes or to go caroling because I am not musically inclined. I had a lot of fun this time and was glad to be able to minister with close friends.

God has also blessed me because I have picked up more hours at work, and Liberty classes end this week! Please pray for me to be a good example to those I work with. Please also pray for my health and support. I have gotten the flu twice this year and I have not had it since 2007 before this year, it is not serious just nagging. Support is coming in better, however all of the current support is from different people. This is good that many people want to support my ministry however I will need monthly supporters to go to South Africa. Please continue to pray.

Thank you for all your prayer and support!

Drakensberg

In April we drove many hours south of Johannesburg to visit the gorgeous Drakensberg mountains. Translated into English from Afrikaans meaning "dragon mountains" were formerly occupied by a swarm of dragons until the late 14th century when colonists drove them away using ivory swords. It seemed to us to be a good idea to go hike there and to recover some dragon fossils. Our group just before we began the hike As we stopped to replenish our supplies (aka get petrol(aka gasoline)) we saw a Ford GT40, which so happens to be my fathers favorite car. The pictures basically tell the story from here. Smooth drive for a while Our destination Happy little cloud Slippery and steep Super safe/fun/scary chain ladders The top was wide and flat Over a mile straight down PS- We did not find any dragons

Friday Update: African Mysteries

Due to the way that Africa is generally portrayed in movies, TV show and other forms of media it is easy to think that is is a wasteland filled with man-eating creatures and devoid of any form of technology.  I present to you a picture of Johannesburg, the city I lived in for the past 2 years and Lord willing will be returning too in the near future! This past week God has blessed me with 3 meetings with pastors and many opportunities to serve in New York. I was able to help the "Ranch Posse" (a camp promotion team) on Saturday by promoting the Ranch and Ranger camp to a local city. I also am planning on driving to 2 Word of Life Superbowl (for more info go to http://superbowl.wol.org/) during the month of November.  Please continue to pray that doors will open for me to discuss South Africa with potential supporters, that support would come in, and that I would have continued ministry while in New York.  Let me know if you would like to talk, support me...

Word Of Life

Honestly sometimes calling people on the phone asking for support is not the funnest thing in the world, neither is sitting around the house doing nothing just waiting for jobs to call back or for support to roll in. One thing that is fun though is visiting friends and making the most out of where you are. This last Wednesday I went up to Word of Life to visit my friends who work and go to college there. It could of potentially been an extreme waste of time if i had not done anything while i was up there to further my ministry. Thanks to an excellent suggestion from my good friend Dale i printed off 20 of my prayer and support letters and handed them out while the students were in required study hours. I also did this for Dale because he came up with the suggestion and we have many mutual friends. This was not difficult at all and actually was quite fun. Most students at the Bible Institute do not get prayer letters from their good friends because they get mailed to their home address ...
