YWAM Kona in the Community
As part of our weekly schedule, we have been going to Kona's Old Airport Beach and doing landscaping on their walking path.
It's been a great opportunity to pour into the local community in such a practical way and to thank them for welcoming us onto their land.
It's so important to YWAM for the local community to know that we are not here just to use their land as a training facility, but that we also care about the people that live here and the land that they have let us use.
Last month, we were greatly honored by "West Hawaii Today," a local newspaper, that wrote an article on the work that we have been doing at Old A's...

Hawaiian culture is so respectful towards their land and their people, and we hope to be able to demonstrate to them that we honor that value as well.

out:reach
As of tomorrow, we will have known our outreach locations/teams for one week! ... sorry for the delayed update here, but better late than never!
Together with my co-leader Chelsea, I will be leading a team of four students to ...
Chelsea and I are so excited about the opportunity to lead a team to Nepal! We have been praying about this location over the past month-and-a-half and feel that we are just beginning to understand the love that God has for this nation.
We are still in the beginning phases of planning the outreach and getting in touch with local ministries operating in Nepal, but we hope that in our time there, we will be able to work with victims and people at risk of trafficking along with a variety of opportunities to work with children. We will also have our team be trained in Justice Water which is a ministry that provides and trains locals in clean-water technologies and hygiene, which can reduce water-related deaths by 45%...

Another possibility, which we are all very excited about, is the chance that we may be able to hike into remote villages and discover unreached people groups. There we will help both presently and eternally, by providing clean water while sharing our stories of how God has been faithful in our lives.
Chelsea, myself and the team are all so excited about what God is going to do in and through us during our time in Nepal!
Thank you so much for your continued prayers and support as we continue to prayerfully plan this outreach!
