New Things

Wow it has been too long since I sat down to write. Thank you all for still keeping up with me. We have been doing a lot the last few weeks...or months. Time goes so fast here.

So we have been on a few outreaches so far, and a few to come. Beyond having ALL the teachings, we went to Liverpool, Manchester, and now the team is in Brighton. We were able to perform in the streets, share with the churches we were working with, and meet up with some YWAMers in Liverpool. It was really cool to see more of actual England. London is such a mix of cultures, sometimes I feel that we miss out on true English culture. In the weeks we have been home, we have had so many teachings. From many different teachers we have had the Father Heart of God, Freedom in Christ, Purpose and Calling, Grace and Truth, Renewing the Mind, and too many more. The lives of the students are changing so much, and ours as well. The DTS is very different from an internship, and we have had to change many ways that we move and organise ourselves, it has been very stretching.

We decided as family to do a fast together, commonly called the Daniel Fast. Taken from Daniel chapter 2, we fasted everything that was "of choice" so we ate only fruit, vegetables, legumes, and everything natural (no processed foods or sugars...or coffee...). It was difficult, but God broke through in so many areas, personally and collectively.

On the last day of our fast, we had the opportunity to go and be extras in a movie! It is an independent English film, but still, God opened a door for us that we never expected. Because of some connections we have, we were able to come as club dancers and drive to Sheffield for the day. Most of the hours we were waiting with the other people who came, which was an amazing opportunity to share with them what we do and how we live. Also we got to build relationships with the crew members and make further contacts to have more opportunities in the future. God is so awesome.

We only have about two months left of the DTS! We are confirmed to have two or three days of outreach here in London at Christmas time with a homeless shelter, and also New Years Eve will be spent on the river with all the people who come to see the fireworks, as a time of evangelism and intercession for our city. We also have the opportunity to go to Ireland the first week of December, and we are praying about Bristol and Bath in the next few weeks. Please keep us and the students in your prayers as we continue to go deeper, and pray for a life-changing experience for them.

Specific Prayer Points:
-finances: for now, I am still doing well on what I was able to make over the summer, but to have some constant monthly support will be needed soon
-future outreaches: for the DTS we are pretty solid, but we are praying for many locations for the next two internships, especially in Germany and in more of Eastern Europe
-Camden: we are still pushing for finding a house in the area of Camden, and this needs a lot of intercession and also financial support

Thankyou all so much for the love and support, and the prayer for our team.
God bless!
