Greetings to all our friends,

Firstly, we want to thank everyone for your love, care, support and prayers during 2015. It is mostly a very lonely life as a missionary in a strange far away country but your friendships is truly like a light in a dark world.

We trust and pray that God is doing something amazing in your life and that you've been having a wonderful time preparing to have a fun Christmas with family and friends. We want to share an update since our last newsletter.

I have been extremely busy with teams coming and going and to coordinate their outreaches. The highlights for me is every opportunity that I get to be able to share, teach and motivate them. We get lots of feedback from the teams and it is always wonderful to hear these amazing testimonies of what the Lord has done through these teams.




God gave me an opportunity to give a massive bag full of eyeglasses for a team that were on their way to do an eyeglass clinic. This team from Turner-valley was able to reach over 600 people and hand out about 700 pairs of glasses. One hill tribe woman with a very severe vision problem began to cry when she put on her new glasses.....and said "I can see...".

The Lord is working amazingly through all these teams and I wish I could share every testimony with you. God is using them to impart and impact so many people. They share the Gospel, help with church planting, give food to the poor, help with mercy ministries...and..and...and...Here are a few photos from teams.
 

I just received a testimony today of 68 Thai's that came to know our Lord Jesus through the dvd's that we give to every team. These dvd's are testimonies from Thai's that came to Jesus. 
 


 







WHAT'S NEXT?

CHRISTMAS  
As most of you know, Jono is presently in Seattle, to visit his girlfriend and her family. He really has a great time and I am so happy for him. This will the first Christmas that I will spend it alone but I will definitely spend a nice Christmas lunch with friends.

TEACHING 
I will be teaching between  Christmas and New year at a YWAM base in Thailand. There will be nearly 50 Chinese students and most of them are mature people and even pastors. This is such a honor to be able to do this again.

JANUARY
This is the busiest month of the year and there are loads of teams coming. Also, leadership planning and meetings etc.

FEBRUARY
I have been invited to be a speaker at a YWAM base in Vienna, Austria and will be teaching on The Nature and Character of God and Evangelism.

We wish you a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year. We pray that you will experience the Father's love during this festival season and that you will start 2016 with the Holy Spirit's guidance.
