Let's Hear from the Students....
Mt Isa? Fun? Oh Yea! I've has such an awesome time sharing the gospel, hanging out with kids, playing sports, sharing testimonies & praying in schools. This morning at church I had the opportunity to share what God has been doing in my life. I was pumped! The other day when I was at the skate park for Youth Street skate team, one of the local teens rode up on his bike and just sat watching everyone. I decided to initiate conversation and told him who we were, what we do and why we do it. He was interested to hear about God, so when someone interrupted, he quickly answered them and said “keep going”. It was awesome to share a little of who Christ is and see his excitement!! - Caleb Kaufman (USA)
In the last couple of weeks being in Mt Isa, I know that God has been working. I have personally been drawn to the older indigenous gals. I get to see 3 particular gals around 3 times a week, sometimes more. We hang out together and talk about God. I love seeing God work through me to speak to these gals. I know God has a passion and plan for them. I love sharing what God things about them with them.
I know that this may be raising a passion that is in me. A step that God is leading me to do. This has been a real growing time for be and God has been showing his faithfulness abundantly to all of us. - Becka Walsh (Australia)
I just find it so uplifting to see God work in the hearts of all these kids out here. Just being here for 2 weeks you can not deny God's hand is in this place. Every time we do a Religious Education class, more kids ask about Youth Street and what else they can join in with us. More ask questions about God, which is awesome. Kids hear testimonies of us being healed and they are blown away saying things such as “I thought that only happened in the Bible!!”
There is such a thirst in this town. To see kids run up the your van when you pull up into their neighbourhood is really humbling. Every second you spend with these kids is worth it because that is time they are not on the streets or in situations they should not be in.
God is working here and I have no doubt great things are in store for this place and I am excited to see them happen! - Trey Russell (USA)

Your name sounds familiar and maybe Krista talked to you at some point before she came to Australia. I know that every time she has talked to somebody through email or phone before she got there that your encouraging words were SO UPLIFTING! All of you have so much JOY and we are noticing that with Krista, too, as she keeps in touch with us! I LOVE to hear how God works in her walk and in everybody's walk! God surely does work in mysterious ways!!!
God BLESS YOU and USE you for His glory in Jesus name!!!
