Life at warp speed....

Hello Friends and Family,

We thank you all for your prayers and support.

So to catch you up on the past two months, we have hit the ground running in New Zealand.

So we got here just as outreach week was about to begin.  Jake lead a team to Auckland  he and the team lead a church conference.  He taught through the book of Malachi.  They also were able to experience Island life without ever leaving Auckland.  The church family, (body of Christ) in Auckland were such a blessing to serve with.  The church we helped with was named Garden of Christ, at least that is the English translation. They are a Tuvaluan fellowship.

On March15 & 16 Jake took a couple of guys to a Iconz camp.  Iconz is the New Zealand equivalent to boys scouts, only firmly based in the word.  The guys Jake took shared with the boys at the camp, about different miracles in the Bible involving water.  We pray for more opportunities to have the students serve in the community like this.

We also celebrated Tecla's birthday.  The ladies made her a cake and the school all sang her happy birthday.

This past week Jade started horse riding lessons.  Well not really, but on a regular basis she will get to have professional "riding times" I guess is what we could call it.

As usual Tecla is doing a wonderful job in the kitchen.  And the classes and other things of the school are going well.

This past weekend we took the students to a dry stock farm.  The pastor of Calvary Chapel Hamilton has a couple hundred head of cattle.  We were so blessed to go camping on the farm, the only thing separating us from the cattle was our tents and a little wire fence.  It was awesome!  The students got to experience milking a cow, by hand!  Then drinking the milk straight from the cow, oh it was fun.  We were there to help with a “Sausage Sizzle” that is an outreach to the community where we hand out free sausages and do a bit of witnessing.  This is the 3 year that the city of Hamilton has asked us to do this.  It is always good fun, this time 5 people committed their lives to the Lord.  God is truly doing a work in the Land of the Long White cloud!

That is enough for now, there is plenty coming up.  Thank you all for everything and please pray for the up coming Speakers Week, April 7-11.

Thank you all for your prayers and support.
