Welcome to Grace's YWAM Creative Arts DTS Journey

Hi, I’m Grace and I’m doing a Discipleship Training School (DTS) mission with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) in South Africa between July – December 2010. I hope to learn to use my gift of dance to share God's love with the most vulnerable and hurting in this world. Please join me on this journey!!!

The heart of God!!!!

Hi guys,

Today's blog is pretty personal.This week has been about relationships and how much God loves relationship and restoring it!!! We've all been greatly challenged in many areas.

Personally, God has been doing a lot of work in my heart as well as many others. There has been a great drive towards sorting out our outreach so now we know that we will be spending at least 6 weeks in either Brazil or India. I have felt that God wants me to go to India - I'm super excited but very scared too!!!!Please pray!!!!

God has also been laying on the heart of everyone at the base that he wants to use us to serve the most vulnerable people groups - women and children. So my heart and as we have been preparing and praying many of us have been getting the same idea more and more.

In order to be ready many of us have been stepping out in their gifts. Tamara led us in worship yesterday, which was awesome even though she had never done it before. I got to preach and the guys started doing some awesome acting for the local HIV / Aids Community Support group.It was amazing and something I really want to grow in although this was the last thing I thought I'd be doing. Hagen is really stepping out in his gift of teaching.

We got to celebrate Mohau's 21st birthday this week and made her feel very special. She has never really had good birthdays and so this was a real blessing for her and awesome for us to share with. Relationships have been really growing here and all of us are really feeling that some of these friendships will really be for a lifetime -

I'm still on with the whole gardening thing and this week we got to clear out one of our neighbours garden. Next week we start a project with clearing a school field so they can have a rugby pitch. I can't wait!!!!

More details of what God is doing in here in the latest blog by the same title. I look forward to share more next week.

God bless and speak soon.
