Outreach Update

We have finalized our outreach plans to Haiti and are looking forward to our time of ministry. We will spend our first 2 weeks working with Brother Jean Lyonel near Port au Prince who works with Heaven's Family. Their ministry has built a camp about an hour from PAP for people who have lost their homes. Our next week will be spent with Haitian Christian Missions in Fonds Parisians about 1.5 hours from PAP. Our final 4 weeks will be spend with Reach Haiti Ministries. We will be doing a variety of ministries with all ages. The students are prepared to present 2 major YWAM Dramas "Redeemer" and "King of Hearts" which we will present in many locations. We will also have a couple more shorter dramas along with lots of Children's ministry programs. The students are doing research on Haiti and will present their information during our last week of the DTS.
Our final 3 weeks of the classroom phase will go quickly but will also be very important topics: Identity; Spiritual Warfare and Cross-cultural communication and missions.
Please continue to pray for our team as we pray in the finances for our trip. Several students need help and if you would like to be one of their supporters please send a gift to the following address:

DTS Update

We are in our 7th week of classes. This week we are doing the "Plumbline" class which is one of the most intense weeks of the school as it is a time of soul searching and identification of areas of our lives that we are not walking in the truth. It is a time of restoration and healing of past hurts that have been carried into our lives today and have an effect on our relationship with God and others. We anticipate that God will bring great healing to our students in the areas of their greatest needs.
We have prayed about our outreach destination and will be leaving for the Dominican Republic and Haiti on October 16. Our plans while there are still being formulated and we ask for your prayer as we contact ministries that are able to receive our team. Communication has been difficult to say the least but we are trusting God to guide us as we continue to pray and seek Him.
We invite you to join us in prayer and in helping us financially as we travel and minister on the outreach. We would like to raise $5000 to help with expenses and be able to give money to ministries we will be working with to help them in their relief efforts. Haiti is still suffering from the earthquake with over a one million people living in tents. God is moving in the hearts of the people and we look forward to extenting hands of compassion to the people as we meet spiritual and physical needs.
If you would like to support us financially you can make a check payable to YWAM Antigua and send it to the following address:
YWAM Chico
15850 Richardson Springs Road
Chico, CA 95973
Attach a note stating that it is designated for the Haiti outreach.
Thank you for your prayers and support, it is deeply appreciated.
