<span style="font-size: large;">Thought it would be good to just lay down some basic info about the country I live in which I assume most of you have not visited.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">South Africa is about twice the size of Texas. It has a very diverse landscape with huge mountain ranges, grassy plains, nearly jungle conditions, and plenty of beaches. There are two landlocked countries within South Africa's borders. One which is completely encompassed.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Unfortunately, it is ranked among the top 10 countries for income inequality and it is obvious to see the huge gap between the rich and the poor.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I live just outside Johannesburg which is the largest city in South Africa. It is at a higher elevation than Denver, CO and is known for its mines and as a business hub.</span></div>

We were able to visit many of his supporters and supporting churches. We were also able to discuss future plans for when I return to South Africa. Since the schedule is so busy this December I will be returning to South Africa to direct our teen and children's camps!<br />
<br />
Please pray for a full schedule of meetings during November and for continued ministry opportunities in the USA!<br />
<br />
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to pray for you or if you would like to get together and talk!<br />

For over a year we have been talking about going camping, like <i>actual</i> camping with the young adults we work with. Well it finally happened, and as any good camping trip goes there were some problems which makes a stupid story. Here is the stupid story followed by some lovely pictures courtesy of Clayton who is one of those people who likes to take pictures.<br />
<br />
The day started warm and sunny, the man who had planned the entire camp was about 16 hours away and had left us with a rough mental map of the way things were supposed to go down. There was just one thing that we forgot to factor... we were going camping.<br />
<br />
We were waiting at the starting location for some laides that we were going to give a ride to, they were intended to arrive at 2:00 so we could start our 3 hour trip. Unfortunately they did not arrive until 3:30pm already setting us back an hour and a half and putting us in danger of hitting rush hour traffic the Friday before a long weekend.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.saconference.co.za/saconference/assets/ameerah/img/Communiting.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="283" src="http://www.saconference.co.za/saconference/assets/ameerah/img/Communiting.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Our next stop was to pick up someone in an area called Allendale, usually about 30 min away. However on the way the GPS decided to stop charging, the USB adapter for our music quit and we were swimming in the the ocean called rush hour in a city of about 10 million people.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Our intended destination was a petrol (gas) station where we would rendezvous with our contact. However we arrived at the wrong station and spent another hour twisting and turning our way through the thick traffic.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
We successfully picked up our man and then headed another hour north to pick up some more people. Everything went well with that thanks to Google Maps and then we turned west to travel another hour or so to arrive at the entrance to our campsite at 8:00pm.<br />

Unfortunately the gates to our destination closed 30 minutes prior and the gatekeeper was tempted to prevent us from entering until the following morning. However after some persuasion he agreed to grant us entry pending the arrival of the rest of our camping party.<br />

After those first few exciting hours of typical trouble. We had nothing but fun as we hiked, played board games, played soccer and enjoyed each others company. We did get spoken to about our noise level once or twice but on what good camp do people actually keep quiet the whole time?<br />

The students were on vacation last week and there wasn't a ton to do around the office so we went to an amusement park. Because amusement parks are not as popular here as they are in the U.S. and because we went on a thursday there were almost no lines. We waited for maybe 15 minutes tops and went on all the working rides multiple times!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Mike who is one of the full time missionaries here has recently acquired the task of creating events for the sunday school children of his local church once a term. This term I worked with him on a scavenger hunt. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
For this hunt the kids had 3 church member's houses they needed to travel to and once they were there they had to complete a blind maze, an obstacle course or some mental puzzles (depending on what house they were at). They also had a list of things they needed to photograph or collect. If they completed their tasks sufficiently and if they found certain things they could then trade them in for trinkets that they would use to decorate a potato. The team with the best potato was the winner!</div>

To be honest when I read blogs I generally speed read the written part and bask in the shining wonder of the picture, therefore I feel guilty about posting multiple posts without pictures. However due to my negligence and the lack of friends who like to take zillions of pictures there have been two big events with no pictures (that I can think of). I hereby declare therefore that I will now quickly sum up these events in a way that might hold your attention (if it has not already been lost)<br /><br /><b>Grace Christian Primary School Camp</b><br />
Many kids, few leaders, my team won, water, sun, triple bunk beds, superheroes<br />
<br />
<b>Calvary Baptist Church of Everton Youth Conference</b><br />
Taxi ride, township, speaking on purity and trust, not many English speakers, good fellowship<br />
<br />

Due to the fact that South Africa is super excellent and that the USA has a plethora of young people who want to do something other than loaf all summer we have been blessed each winter that I have been here in South Africa with a missions team from the USA. Word of Life New York has a program called Student Fusion, each year Student Fusion takes groups of students on mission trips around the world. This year Student Fusion sent out 2 teams of people: one team to the Dominican Republic, and a team of 15 people to minister and serve here in South Africa for 2 weeks. </div>

It is obvious that people like pictures much more than words so I will let the pictures tell the story of what we did. But the brief run down is as follows<br />

Each day we got up at 5:30am so that we could be to church by 6:30 where we then had our morning devos and a quick drama rehearsal before the kids arrived and we went into a frenzy of crafts, snack, games, lessons and drama that lasted until about 12 when the kids filtered home. After they left we had lunch, a closing meeting, and drama practice for the next day. After all that it was nearly 3:30 by the time we returned home.<br /><br />

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.<br />
<br />
It seemed to us to be a good idea to go hike there and to recover some dragon fossils.<br />

Shortly after we returned from the South Coast trip we reloaded up the vans this time with 34 people and made ready to depart for Durban which is a city on the East coast of South Africa (about 6 hrs away from Johannesburg where I live)<br />
<br />
We were going there to help run 2 separate Holiday Bible Clubs (HBC) aka Vacation Bible School (VBS) as well as teach the youth of those churches the importance of evangelism and reading the Bible everyday.<br />
<br />
We spent the first night at a local church were we helped with the youth group and had a huge bonfire were students shared about how previous SMASH trips had impacted their lives.<br /><br /><br />

<br />
My team went to a Zulu speaking church called Egukanyeni and we had nearly 200 kids each day of HBC. I worked with one of the youths from the church at running the games. In the afternoons we played soccer for a bit then had training sessions with them to teach them how to study God's Word and how important it is that they share what they learn in the Bible with other people.<br />

South Africa has a holiday called "Youth Day" and a pastor on the southern coast of South Africa (about 9hrs from my residence) decided to run a camp during this long weekend and needed our help. We happily agreed and had a van of 12 people trekking across the highways towards the south coast.<br />
<br />
The challenging part of this trip for me was that we went to a rural area where English is not as widely spoken. Also we were ministering to a area where camp mean many meetings and no games. Whereas camp means to WOL people many games.<br />

One of the best and worst things about being a missionary intern (at least in South Africa) is the waves. Now I am not speaking about literal waves in the ocean but rather the waves of work and ministry.<br />
<br />
Some weeks we are literally gone everyday from 6am-3:30pm and have preparations for the next days after that. Other weeks we are on trips and are actually never home because we are <span style="background-color: white;">teaching screaming children, playing soccer in ankle deep muddy clay, sitting in a van for 9 hours, or swatting mosquitoes that could be carrying malaria</span><span style="background-color: white;">. </span><br />
<br />
Those are the best times.<br />
<br />
Other weeks we sometimes do work in the office, and spend time yearning for something more exciting to do.<br />
<br />
Those days/weeks make me want to pull out my eyelashes.<br />
<br />
And yet this time is necessary as we rest from the intense trips and take care of the administrative side of things as well as assist in the local church ministries that we have.<br />
<br />
We had about a month of this peaceful <i>"</i>rest" before the storm of June and July hit. </div>Kyle Paradishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15985339174274117960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-290324735444376508.post-48208531108100863112012-07-13T02:13:00.002-07:002012-07-13T02:13:56.626-07:00Oasis Camp<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
This May we had our 2nd annual Oasis Camp for young adults. Often churches plan many events for kids, teens and families but neglect the young adult age group. So last year we had our first camp for them and it was a hit.<br />

We wanted to make a camp that appealed to young adults instead of teens so rather than pack the the schedule full of games and meetings we had lots of free time and a few loosely organized activities.<br />

However many times kids that come to a camp in March also come to another camp is July so occasional they have to play the same games over and over.<br />
<br />
That is boring<br />
<br />
Camps should not be boring so I strive to come up with as many new games as I can, but it is not enough. I would like your help.<br />
<br />
If you have any games that you think are super and you play them with<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Kids</li>
<li>Your Youth Group</li>
<li>Friends</li>
<li>Teens</li>
<li>Camp</li>
</ul><div>Or wherever! Please let me know by commenting or sending me a message on Facebook. It does not matter if you need certain supplies, if it is for only 5 people to play or if you need over 100 people. We need all types of games and if you have any ideas at all please don't be greedy! Share them with me!</div></div>Kyle Paradishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15985339174274117960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-290324735444376508.post-49345833927100734492012-04-07T04:23:00.001-07:002012-04-07T04:27:15.463-07:00Battlezone<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN3VVj1sj1y74-dOx4ZAjjIhvHvBPuPEXa_vrGaniXHy3kWHfGoqcKId70-NOJMeLJCM-Nu7n3SXSKLPBjCWvhQlQluebSMTOlQMhyZ4-o8iyX1X3UuBOY8zpRcCqTtDS2ygjHTiWmb5I/s1600/kahjsdf.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN3VVj1sj1y74-dOx4ZAjjIhvHvBPuPEXa_vrGaniXHy3kWHfGoqcKId70-NOJMeLJCM-Nu7n3SXSKLPBjCWvhQlQluebSMTOlQMhyZ4-o8iyX1X3UuBOY8zpRcCqTtDS2ygjHTiWmb5I/s400/kahjsdf.jpg" width="308" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This past Monday-Wednesday we had a short but intensified camp called "Battlezone" there was about 70 campers there. The purpose of Battlezone is to train the kids who are regular church goers to deepen their relationship with Christ so that they can become better leaders in their youth groups and to help them to stay faithful to what they have learned from the Bible. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><br />
The first day that we were there we had our first <u>Born Again to a Living Hope</u> performance! The performance went well and although no one accepted Christ as their savior that we know of it was good to actually have an audience and to figure out where our weak points are so that we can improve on them before we preform in schools.<br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The teaching was targeting relationships and included topics such as dealing with unsaved friends, Christian friends, and dating. It was taught by Word of Life Missionaries Brad and Mike. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><span style="text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: center;">Each day is filled with games, meeting and eating. My primary task was to run the games, we played many different games throughout the camp which will be further described by the photos below. I also taught one of the Bible hour sessions to the guys about the importance of having a daily Quiet Time and a consistent prayer life. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Also sorry but the pictures are in no particular order, Blogspot likes to make it difficult to rearrange pictures and I am sure you will all enjoy the brain exercise as well. </div></span><br />

I was able to go on this trip last year and it was a great time of ministry, fellowship and fun. Please be praying for us that we would have team unity, connect with the students well and make a impact on them for the Glory of God!</div>Kyle Paradishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15985339174274117960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-290324735444376508.post-5366475762524154232012-03-01T23:38:00.000-08:002012-03-01T23:38:58.761-08:004 Month Newsletter<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Remember in elementary school, middle school, high school and college when the teacher says at least 10,000 times to read the whole question before choosing an answer? This principle apparently also applies to airline itinerary.<br />

When I got my itinerary I saw that I was flying out of JFK into Cairo. I also saw that I landed at noon and flew out at midnight. (<i>However I did not look at the dates...)</i> After being baffled that I would be sitting in the airport for 12 hours I decided that I would do some exploring and maybe see the pyramids.<br />

So the day came, my family dropped me off in Albany and I took an anticlimactic shuttle ride to the airport.<br />
<br />
However once checking in at JFK I discovered that I would not be in Egypt for 12 hours but actually for 60 hours. After an uneventful trip over to Egypt I met up with my sister's friend and told her that I would be there for 2 days more than I expected and that I had no place to stay. She quickly offered for me to stay with her family which I did.<br />
<br />
I had a great time touring around Cairo and I did not take a ton of pictures but here are some of what I have.<br />

I had a grand old time while I was home, it was such a luxury to my family and to spend some time with them.<br />
<br />
During one of the weekends I was at the Word of Life Bible Institute for the annual missions conference. I was able to see the next group of interns being sent off to their countries and hang out with friends who were in the area. We even indulged ourselves to the point that we purchased the famous local gas station pizza.<br />
