From the Class Room to the Nations!!

It has been an incredible few months here on the Gold Coast! Life as a missionary in ywam is always changing and moving, but God is creating in me more of a consistency of heart and faith.

Our students on the school of worship have almost finished their lecture phase of the school and in a few short weeks we all head to the USA for outreach. Last week I was given the opportunity to speak on the school on "Reaching the Nations through Worship". It was amazing to share my revelations and stories with these guys and challenge them in their perspective of worship ministry. throughout the week we covered how we need to value our personal history with God and value community. I also shared about my journey and many of the things God has been teaching me while in ywam and Mozambique about hunger, sacrifice and holiness. We also looked at what God is doing in the world and how there is a new wave of worship and prayer that is fueling the greatest revival the world has ever experienced. It was an awesome week and I loved seeing God bring new revelations and seeing each student experience God in their own way.

With our lecture phase coming to an end, my staff team and I are working hard to see all the details come together for our outreach in the States. It is an amazing opportunity for our students to apply what they have been learning as they have been growing as worship leaders and in their character. We are also stoked to be involved in what God is doing in the USA! We are beginning in California, and then we are going to the east side of the country and making stops in Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Kansas City, DC, Michigan and New Jersey!!

More Details to come, but thank you for all who have been praying and who have said yes to partnering with our SOW family. We are leaving late Jun and will be there till August. We are still in need of a few things, including finances, accommodation in a few locations, and a Van/SUV for our team of 9. Please pray for these things and for our team as we get ready to go!

I would have to say that transitioning into life here has had it's ups and downs, but God is doing so many things in my heart to remind me I am where I am meant to be. I cannot wait to see  He has over the next few months and I am challenged to go deeper with Him then I have been before.

Blessings,
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

a lovely little update :)

Hey there, So after the week in Airlie there was a week on Spiritual Warfare and then a week of Father Heart of God. Both weeks were amazing!!! Spiritual warfare is something I really didn't know much about and it is something I have a bit of a hard time understanding, but it is very real and so powerful. We have so much authority against Satin and it goes unrecognized and that isn't good. Father Heart of God week made me really begin to appreciate my dad, and the rest of my family, and also it gave me a clearer perspective in seeing God as my father and daddy. Then a very cool guy named Mark Parker from New Zealand came and helped us really surrender ourselves to God and the Holy Spirit. He spoke all week on Lordship. Then Friday we began at 8:30 in the morning and all together experienced an amazing transformation till 2:30ish in the morning on Saturday. We went through different steps as a school and did different things like giving thanks, worshiping, giving burnt offeri

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. . . .

I have a lot that needs to happen in the next few weeks but I really feel that instead of being stressed and worried about visas, flights, malaria, packing, deadlines, relationships or finances
