DTS training

This week I was asked to do a cultural orientation for the Discipleship Training that recently started here at Island Breeze. We have seven fijians, one from Vanuatu, and one from the UK. This is a rugby DTS and consists of all men. After the cultural orientation of discussing warm culture (people focus) vs cold culture (task focus) we went into some teambuilding excercises. It was a lot of fun and also a good time to stretch the mind and build some long lasting friendships. May God bless this team as they learn, minister in the Brisbane area, play rugby as a ministry, and outreach to the Pacific.

Wototo group

 

We were able to attend the 'Wototo' concert, a group of African orphans who have come out of amazing violence to speak of freedom and forgiveness!! Inspiring for us at Island Breeze!

Combined Worship and Prayers for Hurrican Yasi

This past Monday we took the morning to lead a combined with worship with a nearby YWAM. It was a bit of culture shock to be around so many North Americans and Europeans. Our outreach team from Vanuatu performed their dance and Waqa and Soni led the worship. It was a great time of worship and interceding for Egypt. May God grant other AWESOME times of worship to come!

PS thanks for your prayers for Hurricane Yasi that hit northern Queensland. To this point, no fatalities. Property damage we can rebuild. The consensus seems to be its a 'wake up' time from God, drawing us nearer to Him!
