So it is day… 4? I believe here in India. It is nice to finally be able to begin to integrate with the people after all the long flights. The Mission rented us a pretty nice “apartment” to sleep in. I feel very secure in there. Alot of gates and locks! It has also given us an opportunity to meet and begin a relationship with the landlord and his family. God willing, we can get into deeper conversations with them in the future. Now to the kids. The kids are great. They all have powerful personalities and are hilarious. they refer to the male team members as...

Well, training camp certainly keeps life interesting. Its hard to believe that its almost over, yet, with the anticipation of India, it also seems like it has lasted forever. God has continued to grow and change and sanctify my heart. And what a comfort it is to know that no matter what the new circumstances or the new experiences or the new people or the new whatever, that God is still here. That He hasn’t changed and he hasn’t become something different. The Scripture passage that often comes to mind is Philippians 4:10-13: “I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now...

It’s Gonna Be Wild

Having served with AIM last summer to Goa, India, I already had an idea of what training camp would be like. I knew there would be lots of people in small spaces. I knew there would be intense speaking sessions. I knew there would be some crazy people who are on fire for God. What I didnâ€™t know was that I would learn what I’m doing after India. Training camp is usually a place for new freedom and restoration that has never been found. But I have already found that. Yet, God still had something special for me. He always does. You see, I am at such a special place in my heart....

As I prayed this summer for God to come and be present in my life, I didn’t think He would bring me to serve in India. I have spent time preparing and working toward this time and it’s finally here. As we come together as a team and as a group of about 80 college age students God has met us here. We have spent time listening and coming to know that we have a God who loves us and who will fight for us. Even in the beginning of this adventure here at training camp I have seen the hand of God more clearly than I have in a long time. We have worshiped, ate, slept, learned...

A big log

I thought I was ready to go to India God had been doing huge transformations in my heart leading up to this trip. Making me like Himself through sanctification, healing wounds etc. I was ready. I expected training camp to be awesome; a time where my team and I would bond, and learn about the culture we were walking into. I didn’t expect that God would change me so much in one weekend. Day two of camp we were challenged to look within at something or things that we were ready to lay down. We each received a log. Yes, a log, to carry around. We wrote our burden on this log, and were...
