Interests: I'm a person who dreams to be more than I am, with God as enough for everything. I love encouraging and discipling people, seeing them become more than they ever dreamed they could be in Christ (because He so longs to bless you lovelies!). Music and the Arts are huge passions of mine especially in evangelism, New York, prayer, church unity on a global scale, the colour pink, family and friends and great seafood.

| Changes....Ahh night rehearsals....gotta love them! This is the 5th time now that I've either been directly or indirectly involved in doing the show now and because of the Company going to Indiana in another 2 weeks will be the 6th!!
I love reheasing, but sometimes I just get really impatient wishing that we could all just somehow magically 'get it' and know everything perfectly! I think I'm definitely impatient especially when it's almost 10pm at night and I'm a morning person! lol
The DTS has been going for about a month now. We have 25 students this year, 16 girls and 9 guys, with about 8 different nations represented. We have another Aussie in this school, which I'm excited about (it's nice to have some of home around here for once!) and well as people from Norway, Philipines, France, Ukrane, South Korea and the US. They're a very different group than the last school, a lot older, actually they remind me a lot of my DTS....I miss you guys!
I'm leading a small group of my own this year, with Taryn assisting (I love leading with her!) and I have 6 girls under me. They are all so precious in very different and wonderful ways. I LOVE the discipeship/mentoring aspect of DTS, getting to see people grow and walk in their faith and to be used by God to help encourage that in others is awesome!
That said, over the past few months I've felt a real restlessness in spirit and haven't really known why. After much prayer I've made the decision to leave YWAM for a while and go back to Australia to....well I'm not really exactly sure what I'm gonna be doing once I get there as yet, but I'm sure that things will reveal themselves in time. This isn't a 'I'm leaving YWAM forever' scenario, cause I have no idea what God is gonna do, but I know that for a while I need to be with my family and friends back in Australia for a while. It's a scary thing to think about, especially as New York, the US, and my YWAMily are where my home is, but I feel like it's time to take a break from things.
Augh! So many crazy changes huh? | | |
| Wow. It's been forever since I've written on this thing, and I can't believe how out of date my profile pic is!! I prolly should change it at some point.
So what's new? Nothing really, still doing the YWAM thing until the next DTS is over, and then most likely moving back to Australia for a while (well at least that's the plan right now anyways!) I have no idea what I will do when I get home, but it will be nice to be home for a while at least.
I'll prolly pack up and move somewhere else anyways! :) Actually, there's a huge ache in my heart to establish myself somewhere. I don't really have much of an idea of what that means, or what that will look like, but it's something that I feel like God is speaking to me over and over again.
We have 20 days until the next DTS starts. I'm the Registrar for this school, and omgoodness, I had no idea that it would be this chaotic!! I feel like in between talking to students interested applicants, academic stuff, and all my other responsibilities that I never get anything done, but my list seems to be small at the end of each day, which I think is a bloody miracle! lol :) I'd really appreciate all your prayers, we only have 19 accepted students for this school, with 20 days to go, and we need like to have at least 10 more students to make this next DTS amazing. God of course will call the people He wants to together (it's an older school this time, last school everyone was between 17-22 mostly, and this one the majority will be 20 and over!) but being the point of contact and person responsible to get everyone here (sort of) I'm feeling the pressure! God is good and He will work it all out right?
Anyway lovelies, drop me a line and let me know how you all are. I miss you all a lot, even if I'm not in contact as often as I would like to be! :)
Blessings :) | | |
| Why is it, whenever one part of your life finally smooths itself out, another decides to go haywire? Augh! | | |
| Happy Easter everyone!
I hope you had a wonderful day :) | | |
