Departure

I will be flying out of GR on Saturday the 29th of December. My plane leaves 5:20pm and i should arrive in Brisbane at 6:15 on the 31st. I have one more week of work and then two weeks to get everything in order. Time has gone so fast!!

Something you could pray for is my Visa situation. Because of Government stuff on Brisbane's end, I can't get a student Visa right now. I am praying i can get one before i leave, but otherwise i have to leave on a visitor Visa and that makes things a bit more complicated. Please pray that everything gets worked out and I can get a student Visa before i go.

Also, pray for me in these last few weeks I have and for my transition to come. It's hard to explain how I am "feeling" about everything right now. Those who have done something similar to this will understand. However, I know this is what i am meant to do and I have seen God working in amazing ways to make this happen. If you are interested if knowing how you can support me over the next 2 years, feel free to email me at lindsey.music.burton@gmail.com or check out the link to my online paypall fundraiser in the previous post.

love,
Lindsey

Airlie Beach

Hello there, sorry about taking forever to update!! So last week I went on a 16 hour road trip (not including the stops and such) to Airlie Beach. Its this Beautiful location right on the ocean and a group of about 20 people from my DTS went there to help with schoolies. Schoolies is a big party after the Australians graduate High school. Its a big celebration put on by the government that not only involves theme parties and loud music but also drinking, drugs, abuse, and even deaths. During these weeks of partying students get into about everything imaginable. My team went into this environment with the intention of simply loving these young people and showing them we cared. We set up what was called the chai tent. it was a big tent, and inside we set up little tables with pillows around them and we served free slushies and chai tea. As groups would come in some of us would just sit and talk to them and as we got to know them we would ask a little bit about what they believed when

3 Weeks to Go!!

Greeting from Michigan!! I have 3 weeks to go until I am required to be in Pemba, Mozambique! I have no idea what to think or feel, but I am definitely excited and also facing a lot of the unknown. I miss being in the ywam Gold Coast community very much, but i know that God has a plan bigger and better then mine. So I am proclaiming in Faith that I will be in Africa in a few weeks! As of right now I do not have enough funds to get flights or apply for a visa, but God is providing in different ways and I hope to have flights by the end of the week and a my visa application in the mail. Please consider giving towards these needs through my Gofundme Campaign. It is easy to give a one time gift and every bit helps. Here is a link to the page. . . .

Friends || Faithfulness || Flights

Over the last 2 months I have had many ups and downs as I have been in transition. A transition from Africa to America. A transition from 2015 to 2016. A transition from who I was to who I am now, and finally, a transition from Michigan to the Gold Coast. God has been incredible faithful to not only come through with all I needed for flights to Australia, but also in giving me extra time to spend with friends and family. He has used things that I thought were negative and has blessed me. Leading up to this week I thought, "how is this going to happen?". I was short the funds needed, and the longer I waited to leave, the less time I would have to help in prepping for the School of Worship. However I kept believing that God would do what He said. On the weekend, I saw God provide supernaturally through people in a beautiful way. I was able to find really great flights and also be prayed out by my home church. I am humbled and in awe of God's loving kindness and the supp
