G'day and Welcome!!!

Here is a bit about who I am..

I have been a part of YWAM Townsville now for almost 5 years working as a full time volunteer. I came over from New Zealand for the 6 month October 03 Discipleship Training School (DTS). during this time my life was changed as my relationship with God became alive. My Heart and Passion for him was awakened and I have been ruined for life in the ordinary.

My passion is to see young and old discipled and encounter a relationship with God. This was really birthed during my DTS and Outreach experience and has lead me to be involved in many DTS's, Outreach trips around the world, and involvement in seeing a large evangelistic campaigns here in the North Queensland called Impact World Tour.

I have just finished Leading the Jan 2009 Discipleship Training School (DTS), where we sent 5 teams out on outreaches in North Queensland, Darwin, Bali, Papua New Guinea, Fiji, South Australia and East Timor. It has been awesome seeing all that God done in just 6 months. Praise the Lord!!! So now I am leading the current July Staff Internship and looking to head home for some time with Family and friends soon too. Here are some photos from the last 6 months.

After 5 years of ministry, This is the most exciting time to be involved in what God is doing!!



And the greatest thing about it is that there is so many ways you can be involved. Its even as simply as helping collect used glasses and sending them here. We will get them cleaned -> check the prescription -> then give them out to the people in PNG, matching the glasses with each person individually. How cool is that!!

So if your interested in being involved I'd love to talk with you more. Plus the Oct DTS will be involved in a number of ways so stay tuned and we will… Continue

Camping Back at Hidden Valley!!!

Well you might have heard about the cyclone that was on our coast the last couple of days. I actually found out about it while we were up camping as a DTS, 53 people camping in an area that has had the highest rainfall in all of australia with 3.38m (yes thats Meters) of rain since this January!!! I'm sure you can understand why we didn't waste much time getting everything packed up and left camping almost straight after lunch and packed down camp in just over 2 hours. Unfortunately it was actua… Continue

None of Self

Oh, the bitter shame and sorrow
that a time would ever be
when I let the savior's pity
plead in Vain and proudly answered
ALL of SELF and SOME of THEE

Yet He found me, I beheld Him
Bleeding on that accursed tree
Heard Him pray, forgive them Father
And my wistful heart said faintly
SOME of SELF and SOME of THEE

Day by day his tender mercy
healing, helping full and free
Sweet and strong and oh so patient
brought me lower, while I whispered
LESS of SELF and MORE of THEE

Higher than the highest h… Continue

North American Trip / what's on until the end of the Year.

Hello and welcome to my first video update / Blog.

I have decided that a Video blog is way better than me just writing a bunch of stuff. So this is just a bit of an overview of what the last number of months has been and what is coming up. I'll look at more specific stories added later, so i'll keep you all posted.

Hey Buddy! Just wanted to say hi and see how everything is going with you and your school, things have been going really well here in Darwin, We are leaving the base tomorrow to go to an Aboriginal community for two days so that should be awesome. But yeah man, I'm praying for you. Hopefully you check this more then your email. lol

Hey, Buddy! Stephanie said she'd tell you, but I wanted to post just in case! :) My Sydney flight was delayed 24hrs, so it looks like I'll be taking the Virgin Blue flight at 9:50 on Saturday, which should get me to Townsville at 12ish. I'll try my best to call you when I get in at Sydney!

Hey Buddy,
I'll be praying for you, the other staff (who else is staffing? Ania? Naomi?) and the students as you start Jan DTS 09!
God bless you x

Hey Buddy...don't know if this is any more an effective way of reaching you than email but thought i'd cover both bases. Basically I'm stuck in London at the moment and I won't be flying out until tomorrow (Friday) now. I'll be on the same Virgin Blue flight to Townsville as I would have been on Friday...except it'll be Sunday at 12:45pm. If you guys could be praying that there are no further delays, especially with my connection to Townsville, that would be awesome. See you soon!

Hey Buddy, happy new year! I don't know if you got my email from a few days ago but I booked a flight that gets me in at 12:45 on Friday 16th January coming from Sydney with Virgin Blue.
