Farewell to Island Breeze Brisbane

On Monday night the Island breeze ladies took me out for dessert, fellowship and prayer time as a farewell and also a celebration of engagement to Manasa. It was a blessed time and I will truly miss these ladies and the Island Breeze Base!

42 Days and counting

42 days till the Wedding! But whos counting :)
I received a beautiful prophesy last night at my last fellowship with a local baptist church here in Australia- looking forward to a season of laughing, laughter of happiness but also laughing in the face of Satan. Compared my past ministry to the future and this past season has been like its "been lost as sand through the fingers" but that will be a season where God will accelerate. The love of the Father will be the key to unlocking the favor in nations- specifically "ancient and preserved nations". Amazing! There was so much more to the prophesy and confirmations but I am sincerly appreciative to a God that cares enough to affirm me and love my ins and outs.
Good day!

Visit to Newcastle, NSW Australia

With only a week left I spent a long weekend at a friends house, with her family and new baby Sophia (one month). Amazing to see how God has imprinted even children at such a young age with His fingerprints. Here are a few pics.
Notice instead of rocking horse, they have a rocking kanga

Leaving Australia

Countdown is one week before leaving Australia! Thinking of all the great memories and praying blessings over all the ministries I laid on a hand on, but that also touched me!  Leaving next Thursday for Lautoka Fiji, my new home for the next 2 months. There are still lists of things to do. Did some packing today and was pleased to see that I've minimized to a decent amount considering I can only take two carryons and a 23kg bag..... on to more adventures! Thanks for the prayers during this transition time!

some more pics from Fiji trip

Here are some more pictures from the FIji trip. In the village they use their own garden, fishing and raising animals for food. The only thing I saw them buy from the shops was toilet paper and rice. Heres a picture of Manasa shelling the coconut to be used for a sauce for dinner. Even though the ferry was almost four hours, it didnt seem long with airconditioning and movies playing!

ENGAGED

This is alittle late, but during my trip to Fiji during Easter I was able to visit with Manasa's family, and also become an engaged woman! Manasa asked me to be his wife on top of a little hill in a traditional fijian bure looking over the ocean and the mountains to our left. I am honored, thrilled, excited, sentimental, and can't believe in just under 2 months we will be married! There is more information on our website at "www.alissamanasa.com".
First pic is the first picture of us engaged, and the second is my realizing how quickly the wedding day is coming!
