India update
Hi from India. This place is pretty mental. We have gone to several house churches this week and met with hundreds of new believers here. We have studied church multiplication strategy and prayer walked in downtown Old Delhi. The sights sounds and smells had to be seen to believed. We used the Luke 10 method with great success. People here are totally open to the Gospel. Food has been a bit tough but weather is mild and our schedule tiring. We travel home tomorrow so please pray for travelling mercies. Lots of photos to show as well as exciting stories to tell. Talk soon be blessed.

Settling back
Well we're home awhile now and it seems like months ago when we were in Kenya. We've both settled back into our lovely home and found that our cat was still alive so that was cool. We're also both working part time jobs as well as doing ministry so that certainly keeps us busy :)
We have been so blessed with our jobs during uncertain times for many. I have my job as an online travel agent with a Christian company in Melbourne www.tendaitravel.com and Alex has just started working in the City Gates cafe (cafe in the Christian bookshop in town). We are both loving our jobs and the new opportunities and people it is bringing along. We are very thankful to God for providing them for us as it now means we can volunteer for churches and have our little tent makers 1 Thess 4:11-12.
Since we've come back we've also been helping out at Grace with the leaders training and the teaching for teens on Sunday mornings, as well as Alex teaching at Lee Valley. There have been plenty of one to one meetings as well as we have the privilege of meeting up with so many college students and leaders. God has really opened the doors for some great relationships here in Cork now. As we look over the last year it's so cool to see how he has mapped out his plan and continues to do so. We've been up to Dublin as well for meetings for Teenstreet Ireland and that has been really exciting to see the way God is using the team to put together what will be a great weekend. And next week we're off to India for a trip with GEM to see what work is been done over there. We were invited on the trip and now that it's getting closer we are getting really excited about it and what an amazing chance to be invited on this trip with a great group. Really looking forward to seeing what God is doing over there. We'll just be away for the week and will be back again to update you all.
