One Outreach to the Next!
Lots has happened and lots to catch everyone up on. As I am getting ready to head out for the next outreach I am reminded of Gods goodness and how much He did on first outreach that I can't help but share! My team and I had an amazing time speaking in the Aussie schools and at some incredible church services! I met so many people and God gave me the opportunity to speak life and give direction to so many students in the schools. I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to hang out and just answer questions that the youth had for me and my YWAM team. Countless stories, many new relationships, and a bond with my team that I can't even begin to explain. I love knowing that as I spoke what God placed on my heart that hearts were moved and minds were expanding to the revelations that God was working on in their hearts. I had such an awesome experience with a young lady in particular on an Evangelism night for my team as God led me to her and as I spent time talking with her to bring to the surface brokenness she was going through. It was so mind blowing as I walked away knowing God used me to tell her just how God saw her. I loved every minute of it. God used me to speak in some of the places we went and I can't even remember some of the things I said because it was so much of God speaking through me. I went to bed each night of outreach just in awe of what God did and the impact we left in the places we were at. It was a great time. Being back at the base for the last two weeks I have completed lectures now. We finished Missions and Spiritual Warfare week. Headed off for the next outreach for 6 weeks! I am no longer going to Papua New Guinea but will be traveling all Queensland Coast and joining the Australian outreach. For now this is where God is leading me and I am excited to see what God is going to do in the weeks ahead. Please keep myself and my team in your prayers! We are praying for the youth of Australia and to speak life and Gods truth into their generation. Can't wait to see what God is going to stir up! Hopefully I will keep everyone more updated. Thanks for reading!

Hi Claire,
ReplyDeleteI'm Peter Hill's mom and I've been following your blog since Peter has your blog on his profile page to follow along with his. It's been fun to read another person's blog about their experiences at YWAM. I've been praying for you since I feel like I know you through your blog and talking with Peter through skype...he says you're an amazing person! It's interesting how everything worked out with finances and your 6 week outreach...nothing surprises us with God. If you look back on your blog, January 25 about when you were deciding on what outreach God wanted you to do...A couple people made comments that they thought outreach #4 Australia Outreach-working with youth would be a good fit for you since you have a heart for youth. Even though PNG would of been a wonderful experience with God using you there...God had another plan for you. When you come back from your 6 week outreach, I believe you will understand why. I'm excited for you and I'll be praying for you and your outreach team.
I know it seems strange to receive a comment from a stranger but the Lord put it on my heart to send you one.
God Bless, Michele
