Operation Christmas Child


This is an function that Smaritan's Purse puts on where different churches around the world give shoe boxes full of gifts to Samaritan's purse. They then take the boxes and give them to other charity organizations in 3rd world countries to be given out to children.


The First day we went around to all the houses inviting the children. We mainly went to Indian families(people from India).

They invited us into their homes and we had tea with them, building relationship.









On the 3rd day we gave out the gifts, I had the opportunity to hand out some of the gifts.

Kelsey my co-leader also handed out gifts. (Can you guess who is from Johns Island?)







Prayer Mountain

This is the landscape around "Prayer mountain" which is the name of the first piece of property that Loren Cunningham bought. (The founder of YWAM)

We came here at the start of our ministry in Fiji to pray for our time in Fiji.


This land is what got me interested in coming to Fiji in the first place. Yohanan the school leader mentioned this piece of land on my DTS when I was a student and after that moment I knew I was called to go to Fiji. Next thing I know I'm leading an outreach in Fiji.

Its one of the few pieces of property that YWAM has that doesn't have much on it. There is only a shack there to this day and it was bought around 50 years ago. However they are building a base there now.

Scotland

This is Arbroath Scotland, its a fishing town in Scotland.



We made signs that said "you are loved" and we went out into the town and held them up. People were really grateful.



This is a miniature christmas tree my mom sent me. We all gathered round it for Christmas it was awesome.
This is a cafe that we were given to use for Christmas. So on christmas we cooked dinner and enjoyed Christmas together.
The Cafe

We did a lot of practical work while we were in Scotland.
There was a family of Missionaries who needed some help painting so we did that.

This is a church plant that we helped out with. It was a new church starting in an older church building.
We did testimonies, skits and we did the sermon some sundays.
