19 October 2007 - Keep on walking

I’m so happy that I get this chance again. Finally my friend John was kind enough to lend me his computer for a long time so I could go through my photos and write to you about what has being going on, what God has being up to in this past month.

On September 21st I said good bye to India (for now), with a mix of feelings and wishing I could get to spend more time in this spectacular nation.

I leaved the most exciting experiences; from getting to know incredible people who are with fire in their hearts to see Christ reign in a nation where only a few recognize Him as our savior; To using the Asian toilet, better known as a squatty, haha. God is wonderful, nothing escapes his attention, when he lets us go through this adventures.  

During the last week and a half of my time in India, I was working with an orphanage that takes care of children and their mothers, both victims of Aids. We played, studied, ate, and cried together. God allowed me to give them His love and in return I got back His amazing love from them. There are no words to describe or explain how God worked in me during this time. Those kids certainly left a mark on my heart. Please pray for the children and mothers of House of Hope.

Today I’m in South Africa, I have being here for three weeks. We are in the second level school taking classes on Photojournalism (where I’m working as staff). All the students are very motivated to learn more about photography and how to use it for God’s glory. This week we are working in and with the community of Cape Town on the project of photojournalism.

 At the moment I find my self in a very different rhythm of life style compare to the one I was used to in India. I’m being challenged by my Creator like never before. I have all this question signs in my relationship with Him, my personal life, finances and my future.

I don’t know what plans God has for my future, I just wonder… I have a round the world ticket and a two year commitment to this ministry, but not enough funds? My camera is broken and for me to be able to continue with this project I need monthly support of a $1000 USD.  I need your partnership I need your prayers.

I have to take a decision soon so I will be updating you on what happens. No matter what happens I will continue searching for Him full heartedly where ever He calls.

The peace that defies all understanding, the peace of God is with me and I know He is in control. I hope you are all well, in my prayers you are always, thank you for coming with me in this adventure through all this time.  Love, Carla
