Not this time, bad boy!

Thursday, April 17th, 2008 by Knight

Several days ago our fearless leader dropped a bomb of a message, moments before he took off for the airport. He was on his way to America to take part in our group’s April training, a critical weekend in which new recruits get fired up and are given practical training on how to prepare for [...]

Send forth laborers

Thursday, April 17th, 2008 by Skittles

“Why did you go to the temple?” Cathy asked Helen, as we waited for the meal to come. Helen explained that she and her friends had experienced some troubles recently, and she thought it might help to visit that place. Her background is Buddhist, so it made sense for her to talk to Buddha. Cathy [...]

12 days to make the most of…

Thursday, April 17th, 2008 by Cherie

The truth is I only have 12 days left here. I can't believe the end has come so quickly. I have been so busy the past three weeks I have not been able to send out a blog…God is moving in so many different ways it's hard to keep up! Last week I had the [...]

Asia here we come!

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008 by Dew

This time next week, I will be in a whole different city in Asia! We will be visiting a city in another province. This will be one of three cities that CT will be living in this fall. In a few days my team and about twenty other CT members will fly into an unknown [...]

Elle

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008 by Lavern

I met my friend Elle through my disciple, Mandy. My first encounter with Elle was when Mandy brought her to see Mandy's dunking. From that point on, Elle was attached to Mandy. Mandy would bring Elle to our discipleship meetings. During these times we'd talk about the church, what it means to be a disciple, [...]

Unbelievable!

“Do you believe in Jesus?!” “No, I’m Buddhist!” “Well, I do!” I almost couldn’t believe my ears! This was the first time I had heard my friend share his faith with someone! This is my friend Jerry. He committed his life to Jesus three months ago. He’s been one of mine and my roommates best [...]

An amazing ten days!

Monday, April 14th, 2008 by Knight

Sometimes I sit down to write a blog and look at the screen, wondering what I should write about. This isn’t one of those times. Last week Vash and I had two close friends over for a meeting to lead them in getting filled with the Spirit. These two guys have been our closest local [...]

Changing lives

Sunday, April 13th, 2008 by Wesley and Buttercup

As Ellei and I talked about our teammates, a few tears escaped and rolled down my cheeks. Lately I find myself really grateful to God for putting the four of us girls together on a team. From the first time we met each other at training camp until now, I can see His plan! With [...]

Bathtub, River, or Pool? (Part 1)

Sunday, April 13th, 2008 by Dove

Jessica walked with my teammate and me around our campus. Sophia joined us, and then we headed over to the stadium track near the basketball courts and pingpong tables. Even though it was about 7:30 in the evening and almost dark, waves and waves of people were walking laps around the track. The weather has [...]

Soul mates

Sunday, April 13th, 2008 by Blondie

What does Soul Mate mean? Soul Mate to me means, finding someone with the same spirit and life as you. When you can finish someone’s sentence or know exactly what there thinking when they think it. At some point in our lives, I believe we have the desire or longing to have a person of [...]
