June 2022

Dear Family and Friends

Can you believe we are already halfway into 2022?! I arrived back from my trip to America on Wednesday, and I have hit the ground running – albeit, slowly from jet-lag, but it has been nonstop. This past Sunday the title of the sermon that was preached was “Having Faith for the Second Half”. I’m not sure how the first half of your year has gone but I want you to know that God can still do amazing things in the next 6 months as we surrender to His will and plans - no matter what the first half of the year looked like.

I had a wonderful time in America meeting up and sharing stories with many of you who have made it possible for me to do ministry here in Europe. It was also wonderful meeting some of you for the first time and I pray that you will be encouraged by how God is using me in Europe and beyond as the result of your prayers and support in the coming months.

For those of you here in the UK, I would love to set up a time to catch up with you. Please get in touch so we can make a plan.

Over the next 3 weeks I will be in preparation mode for many things coming up that I would really appreciate your prayer for:

7 June – Teaching at our Follow 3 Course in Slough

27 June to 1 July – Every Nation Student Leaders Camp in Marseille (Teaching on Discipleship and the Holy Spirit)

5-13 July – Cyprus (I’m visiting our church plant to preach, teach, encourage and help them in any way to become more effective and grow)

In addition to the above things I need to prepare for, I will have discipleship meetings with teens and leaders here in Slough as well as in Europe.

You might have noticed that I am doing more in Europe lately. This is because I have now become part of our European Missions Team that will be organising different types of missions throughout the year. I will be helping to plan as well as attending some of these missions. I will also occasionally be travelling to some of our church plants to consult, mentor and encourage the team and church such as the Cyprus trip I will be taking in July.

There will be lots of news to share in the coming months! I can’t wait to tell you what God does on these trips and in all of the meetings. Thank you so much for believing in me and for all that you are doing.

One last bonus to my trip in America was seeing my parents and sisters. They were very quick visits but it was so good to spend a little bit of time with them.

Thank you again for all that you do!

Loads of Love
