TESTIMONIES

As you know I'm on outreach in Perth, Australia partnering with YWAMPerths ministries that reach out to this community. Below are some ministries and quick testimonies of how God has been moving here.

Pathways- Is a ministry that reaches out to an immigrant community called Mirabooka. Ive been doing evangelism door to door, in the malls and house visits. Currently I am meeting and praying with a Muslim woman from Malaysia. She is a really loving person and I'm learning so much about her culture and her beliefs. I'm learning how to show her God's personal character to her through my actions and words.The woman says she feels very blessed that a Christian woman would be friends with a Muslim woman even though there are different beliefs.

ARMS-Australian Relief Ministry Service is a ministry that reaches out to families in crisis by cleaning, shopping, babysitting, listening etc... . We cleaned a elderly woman's house who lives alone and cant get the strength to manage her house. I got talking to her about family and she opened right up. She was telling me how her and her daughters relationship fell apart after she divorced her husband and its been bad ever since. God told me to tell her my testimony of when I used to despise my mother when I was younger and how God brought me through it. I prayed for her and she got tears in her eyes and thanked me for sharing. The next day she called our YWAM base and thanked us because we were such a blessing to her. It was so amazing to hear how blessed she was.

Trio- Is a ministry that meets with the poor, broken and needy. One night while we were out we met a young boy sitting on some stairs. We got to know him a bit and I realised we had alot in common with our past. He believes there is a higher power and that it created us and everything using science but not that it is a personal higher power. So we asked him how could a impersonal higher power create a personal being? This really got him thinking and he really seemed to enjoy talking to us feeling loved.

We also do evangelism with the whole base going out into the city. Taking the students out and helping them learn and connect with people blessing them. Actually one night when we weren't even out that night doing evangelism Jobi and I went out to go skating and there was a guy my age walking alone. I really felt the Lord telling me to talk with him. As we did we eventually invited back to Jobi's house for some food, water, and a little guitar jamming. He later asked why we were being so nice when we don't even know him. I told him how God told me to just befriend him and he began to open up. He was presently homeless and struggling with some broken family relationships. So we shared with him about God's love, acceptance, and transformation in our lives and the love God has towards him. He was totally captivated by what we were saying because it appeared he never heard that God was so personal. He was a really nice fun guy with a HUGE heart, I'm really glad we got to talk and pray with him.

Thank you again for all your prayers and support it has really been effective in reaching out with God's love. Please continue to pray for me and my team. I'm helping staff a teen camp for a week and a half starting Wednesday so I will have some more updates on how that goes.

Much Love,
