We're all guilty of this...

What a mission!

Champion City went really well and I enjoyed it even more than last year which was my first mission.

God was at work by answering our prayers to having good weather, healing sick leaders, working in kids hearts (with one girl coming to know the Lord - Praise the Lord! - and many kids asking lots of questions), building relationships with kids and parents, having fun and so much more...!!!

It was so much fun giving lots of piggy backs, shoulder rides, talking with kids, jumping castle, face painting, lolly run, dress-ups, etc.

I am also looking forward to being the Director of a Ballarat Mission this coming September which is exciting.

I encourage everyone to get involved in some form of mission because it is so important to save the lost and as Chris Hill put it - "Plunder hell and populate heaven".

Snapshot Mania

Well after starting Snapshot blogs I have decided that a better idea would be to publish them elsewhere as it would help the blog load lots quicker so here is a link to my collection of snapshots:

Check them out! Will let you know each time more are added.

Also, there will be no blogs for quite a while (like that is not already the case) as I will be going to Warrnambool for Champion City which is a beach mission run by Scripture Union. It should be really good, so looking forward to it.

Catchya later.

Shaking the planet

I went to the Planetshakers Conference in Melbourne last week and really enjoyed it. I was challenged in many aspects like my passion, reaching out to this and the next generation (more the next generation), increase in my faith, praying more, more devotion time and much more.

I heard an interesting fact that only about 6% of what is learnt is implemented by people that go to the Planetshakers conference. I am determined to be in the 6% and improve those statistics by not letting the 'spiritual high' finish just like that without changing my life to serve God even more than before the conference.

It would be good if people ask me how I am going implementing it because then that would help me to be motivated - held accountable.
