Christopher with lots of kids.

Thailand/Cambodia (english)

 The team from Thailand and cambodia came home last monday. They have been working with a ywam base in Thailand and Cambodia and got to try many different things in ministry both in Thailand and in Cambodia. They worked with kids in the slum, living in villages and having meetings where they told the gospel, working in a prison, and with ex prostitutes in Cambodia. They all had a wonderful time, where God has been working in their lifes and impacting them in many ways. And they became a blessing to many people. Thankyou God for showing us your love for these people groups!

Thailand/Kambodsja (norwegian)

Teamet fra Thailand og Kambodsja kom hjem sist mandag. De har jobbet med en UiO skole i Thailand og Kambodsja og fikk prøve mange forskjellige ting i tjeneste i begge landene. De jobbet med barn i slummen, bodde i landsbyer og hadde møter hvor de fikk fortelle evangeliet om Jesus, jobbe i fengsel, og med ex prostituerte i Kambodsja. De hadde alle en fantastisk og lærerik tid, hvor Gud har jobbet i livene deres og preget de på mange ulike måter. Og de har virkelig fått bli en velsignelse til mange mennesker som de har møtt. Takk Gud for at du viser din kjærlighet til disse folkeslagene!

Testimony by Christopher, 20 years old from Arendal Norway. (only in english)

Mission is really exiting! Forget the thought about grandmawork and boring methods. Only in that short time I was in Thailand/Cambodia, God has changed my view on mission.

I like variety when I work, and that we had in Cambodia. I had the possibility of working in the slum with english teaching and friendship evanglism and in a prison/rehab for drug addicts outside the city. In that prison which I really liked to work, we got to express ourselves doing bible devotion, singing and doing drama, english teaching, art and drawing together with the men who were in jail. But last, but not least we made relationships and were able to be a friend for them in a really hard time.

I myself got to see a result of  a former teaching and evangelism in jail. Emanuel had been sitting in jail for 3 months and 3 days because of drug addiction. After he was set free he took his bible that he had gotten i jail, and later receiving christ as his savior. I got to meet him in the jail later and could see his exitement for reaching out to other men who had the same problem as he has had. Now he works as a volunteer in Red cross and are teaching about drug and hygiene. Also after he got out of jail he has gotten a four year university degree for free by the police in Cambodia, all because of his life’s testimony and volunteering in jail and other places.

I really feel that I have gotten a bigger pespective on missions, it is what you do with your calling and it can result in a megacool adventure with God!
