July 2005 - Truth Tour Week 3 - REDFERN Sydney

Email Diary moments .... Week 3

So hard to sum this up in 2 minutes (got to love limited net access).
This has been a full on week in so many ways. There have been such HUGE attacks ... on the team, relationships, accommodation, physically and definitely spiritually. BUT IT HAS BEEN SO POWERFUL.
These kids in this community just ate up God's love that that guys expressed. We have about 40 plus kids for 3 days of workshops. This tiny ministry, One88 Kids, who have struggled to get support from their church, leaders and community were just blown away by what God did. Even the day before they were having trouble making the ministry happen but once we got there it was on. Double the amount of people came than was expected. Plus Darlene Zschech and Brian Houston mentioned the ministry with One88 from the platform. Then Brian and Bobbie came with a film crew from the ABC on one of the days. So here is this little ministry that has been struggling to be seen now with HUGE amounts of attention and all positive and supportive.
This week was "my passion week". I fought hard for this week but I NEVER imagined that our mere presence in this neighbourhood would do so much for both the community and this great ministry that loves them. Just another reminder that God's has a infinitely better idea of what needs to be done than we do. I could not have planned this ... ever.
Which brings us to prayer points:
- MY MANAGEMENT ROLE = this is a point of contention at all times. I really need God daily to direct and guide how I communicate, step out and push from behind. My role is forever changing and it is one of the things that makes me crazy! So please please please pray that God continues to Guide, Direct and mould me into this "tour manager" that people keep calling me.
- Health of the team - just an ongoing thing ... we have colds.
- Ministry - this coming week is a time in Adelaide with the ministry that we love. We really want this time to be fruitful for thier team and community.
Okay ... two minutes are up. I love you all. Thank you so much for every second of love and prayer.
