Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Sorry it has been so long since I have updated this! Internet is very limited.
After I left Switzerland on the 15th of Dec we went back to Germany to get our visas and then I went back to Switzerland on the 17th (so 2 9 hour drives with 1 day in between) to meet one of the guys in our DTS and to be with the France and Spain team for a few more days. Then my team picked me up on the way from Germany to Italy and we made it to Italy in the early morning of the 20th. We spent a few days in Turin doing street evangelism and working with a church there and we did a few church services with them. Then we travel south on the 24th we went to Piza and saw the Tower of Piza and we also went to Florence then we traveled to Rome and spent Christmas day in Rome! Rome is a very Beautiful city and I got to see a lot of things. The next morning we traveled to Naples and worked with a church there and did 2 church services in 2 days with them and also some street evangelism. Then we traveled to Catanzaro where we have ben sense the 28th and we will leave here on the 2nd of January. It has been a very fun and exciting time of outreach! I have seen God do some really amassing things! Please keep me in your prayers!

Thank you very much and God Bless!!

Switzerland

Sorry It has been so long sense I have updated my blog but I have ben so busy! We have had lectures the last three weeks and they have all ben very good and I have learned a lot! We have also done a outreaches out in Zurich and in a few of the other towns surrounding Zurich! It has ben really good, we went door to done and handed out the Jesus video one week and we had some very good responses it was very exciting to see. We have also gone into the Red-light district in Zurich. It is very different then the one in Hamburg! The one in Hamburg was ALOT bigger but for some reason this one has a certain presents about it that makes the atmosphere around the place worse. If I had my choice between the 2 red-light districts I would rather be at the one in Hamburg just because when I was there I could see it but a lot of what is happening in Zurich's is in the Spiritual realm. But God works everywhere inducing in these places.We have also done so ministry in the streets and prayed for people and we have seen some healing it has ben very good to see God work.
We have one more week here and it is really hard to believe it seems like we just got here. On Thursday I will be going back to Herrnhut Germany because the majority of my team did not get our visas so instead of going strait from switzerland to Torino Italy, which is 4 hours we have to go back to Germany to get the visas and then drive the next week to Italy which is about a 13 hour drive. But it will be alright and aim very excited about it.

Thank you for you continued prayers

Hamburg wand Bautzen

The 2 weeks in Hamburg were awesome it was really fun to see God work through us. God really used us with the homeless there. we became quite good friends with the guy who ran the place where all the homeless live. He never said he was the boss be we could just tell. We also had some great time of outreach at the 2 red-light districts in Hamburg. We didn't lead anybody to Christ or talk anybody out of being a prostitute. we we had some good conversations with them just showing them Gods love. Our lecture the second week we were there on Spiritual warfare. The guy that taught us his name is Sam Hoffmann he is a awesome teacher!! He spent 20 years as a missionary in India! It is amassing the passion and zeal he has for the Lord! It was so much fun to learn from him and go with him on outreaches into the city. I would love to go with him to India someday of take a secondary school from him. He is just a awesome guy. My sister met him several times during her travels to India. Also the second week we were there had 4 nights in a row of pray from 12:00am to 4:00am. 4 other guys and I made it for all 4 nights. It was some awesome times of prayer and God really came and was with us during those times. The 2 guys that led it are from Nigeria, in Nigeria all night prayer meetings are just apart of life its just something you do all the time. If we could learn to pray like the people that are not in the west we could change the would with our prayers.

In Bautzen It was suppose to be a week of mini outreach. We did some outreaches into the city and prayer walked. The best part of the week was just the rest we got, because the 2 weeks in Hamburg were go go go all the time. So it was really good to relax and catch our breath. The room the guys slept in was a youth cafe and it had a pool table and a foosball table and darts. We played pool all the time! it was a lot of fun. I have to say I was not to bad b4 i started but after playing about 50 games in 5 days i got a lot better. (if i don't sink the black ball to soon) We were suppose to get our visas that week but unfortunately they didn't not come in only one of our guys got them and all of the other none Europeans didn't not get them. Because of this we will have to came back to the YWAM base in Herrnhut after our month in Switzerland to get our visa. It is ok because our times are in Gods hands. 

The situation the ti posted last time with my passport has all worked out I didn't not have to go to Berlin to get more pages added. it is going to be ok. Thank the Lord. 

Thank you for your prayers

This first week in Hamburg has been very fun! One of the nights here I went to a place where one of the leaders of the base YWAM Hamburg does boxing training for Muslims. so it was quite fun to go there and do a bit of boxing and the training stuff. On friday night I went to one of the red light districts and got to talk and pray for some prostitutes. I have also had a few afternoons of going and talking to some homeless people we haven't ben able to talk with them to much about Jesus to much but just showing Gods love to them.

In my passport I have 3 empty pages and 2 of them will be taken up by my German Visa and one will be take up by one of the other countries that I will be going to so I don't have any more room in my passport. Ether this week or next week I will have to go to Berlin to the US embassy and get some pages added to my passport. So please be praying that it will happen and I can get a appointment.

Thank you for you prayers.

Leaving Herrnhut

I have been here in Herrnhut for 4 weeks. On sunday the 29th I will be taking a train to Hamburg Germany there we will be doing some more outreach and still doing part of our lecture phase. After that I will be going to Bautzen and spending a week there and it will be like a mini outreach. Then we will going to Zurich Switzerland and continuing lecture phase and also helping start a new church for young people. After that our DTS will be splitting up into 4 teams. One outreach team will be going to France and Spain, one will be going to Uganda Africa, one will be going to Eastern Europe Poland, Czech Republic and a few other countries. Me and 13 others will be going to Italy, Greece and one other country. I am very excited we will mostly be doing outreach but we don't know what it all initials yet. This week will probably be the last week in a regular internet for a while. I don't know when I will be able to get on, if I go to a internet cafe I could get on but I don't know how it will all work yet. Please pray for my team. Pray God will show exactly where to go and do when we get there. One thing that looks like we might be doing is spending Christmas in Roma.

Thank you for you prayers!

Last Week In Herrnhut Germany

Last week was a very exciting week I got to go on 5 different outreaches. Two of them where in Herrnhut just going door to door asking if we could do anything to the people we met and asked if we could pray for them or anything! We didn't get to many opportunities to do stuff. But it was fun just to be a light in a dark place. One of the other outreaches so to a YMCA in Lobau and just spent a evening with some of the teenagers and young adults just playing pool and table tennis and talked to them. I got to talk to one German girl about Jesus a little bit. On Friday we went the refuge asylum and talk to the guys to Pakistan and just had a good talk with. On Sunday me and a few others went back and played cricket with them and we also took some food and after we played they cooked the food we brought and all of us ate a huge meal. They have really hot peppers and me being a New Mexican I had to prove I can eat hot stuff! and they were all impressed that I could eat 3 of them one of the Pakistani guys said that he couldn't even do that. :)

On sunday we will be going to Hamburg and spending 2 weeks there please pray for our team. I don't really know what we will be doing yet but it will be a lot of outreach.

thank you for your continued prayer.

week 2 in Deutschland

The second week here was really good! Our speaker this week was Dan Baumann, some of you might know who he is, he was in prison in Iran for 11 weeks. He has a amassing story his testimony is amassing. He really encouraged us to have a personal relationship with Jesus! He also told us a lot of stores about trips he has been on. Also this week we went of two outreaches one was to a town called Strahwalda and prayer walked and stuff like that it was really good. I also went back to the asylum home for the immigrants  and some guys from a country in central Asia cooked dinner for me and a few of the other guys. We went there to bless them and show them Gods love and they were such servants to us. While he was cooking dinner he dropped a bottle cap on the floor and went to pick it up and my had touched the floor, and he got so unhappy with me that I would do any kind of work in his house! I have never ben treated like that! next sunday I will be going back to play cricket and have dinner with them again. On saturday I went to another town called Lobau and pick apples for the YMCA there. We picked apples for 7 hours and got 26 bags full that equaled bout 2,000LB. It felt very good to do some physical work! I know that may sound funny but for me it felt very good.

It has ben a awesome 2 week! I have really enjoyed it! and please continue to keep me in your prayers.

I have ben here for nearly 2 weeks, but it seems like I just got here but the same time it feels like I have been here for 2 months Its hard to explain all I can say it is amassing!! My first week of lecture at the base went really well. Our lectures were on hearing Gods voice. It was really good to learn new stuff and practice what I have learned. Last friday me and some of the other members of my DTS we on outreach to a town called Zittau and went to a refuge asylum. (Its like a big apartment building that people from other countries live in) We got to talk to some guys from north Africa. Some parts of the discussion got pretty heated talking about Jesus and Mohammed. But in the end we ended in friendship with a nice game of soccer. I will be going back again on Friday to talk to them again. 

Also just FYI I will be in Herrnhut for 1 month and than probably go to Hamburg Germany for a few weeks than go to Zurich Switzerland for 3 to 4 weeks after that Im not sure where we will be going. It is open to wherever God wants to send us and I also think It could be off the continent of Europe. God is in control and He knows exactly where me and my group need to be.

Thank you for your prayers

ANOTHER ADVENTURE FOR CHRIST

Dear Friends,
I have been on several mission trips but none like I am about to go on. I am going to YWAM (Youth With A Mission) and do a DTS (Discipleship Training School). YWAM is a missionary organization that has been around for more than 50 yrs, with mission bases in more than 150 nations around the world. The first phase is the DTS. Most DTS’s includes 3 months of lecture phase at a base and 2 ½ months on outreach preaching the gospel and putting into practice what you have learned in the last 3 months.

The particular DTS I am doing is a Mobile Europe DTS. My journey will begin at the YWAM Missions base in Herrnhut, Germany. As the title of my school is Mobile Europe DTS I will be traveling all across Europe during the entire 6 months living out of a backpackers backpack getting to know God and make Him known all across Europe.

I will be leaving September the 28^th and be returning April the 7^th. I am very excited about this missions trip and I invite you to go with me in prayer as Paul says in Eph 6:19-20 “And Pray for me too. Ask God to give me the right words as I boldly explain the secret plan that the Good News is for all nations. I am in chains now for preaching this message as God’s ambassador. But pray that I will keep on speaking boldly for Him as I should.”
Thank you for joining me on my adventure for Christ and for you prayers.

An ambassador for Christ,

Ready, Set, Go

I will be updating my posts whenever I find the time while I am in Europe.  Thank you for your prayers and support as I prepare to go.
