Friends

This past week I had some friends from Canada stay at my flat with my flatmates and I. It was so good to see Matt & Rachelle and have them hang out in NZ with my friends and I. It was awesome seeing how my flatmate, Renee, connected with Rachelle and to hear and see what the Lord is doing in their lives! It made me miss Canada and my Canadian friends and at the same time made me SO THANKFUL for the amazing friends and community that I have here in New Zealand.

I am so thankful for the House of Prayer and YWAM communities here in Tauranga. I am frequently overwhelmed by the goodness of the Lord to provide such an incredible community of believers for me to run with here. These people are fun, encouraging, inspiring and provoking. They make me laugh and they make me want to love Jesus and pursue Him with all of my heart. I am so blessed!

I'm so excited to get plugged into this community in an even greater way during the internship. I am so excited about what the Lord is going to do in this next season. I think it's gonna be good! The THOP internship starts in 10 days and I'm STOKED. Here are a few pics...

  1. Woooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!! Didn't even know that you wrote about us.

    It was SUCH A BLESSING to spend time with YOU, my dear. You do have a good pack to run with out there. Makes our hearts happy.

    Love seeing the pics of the prayer room too. BEAUTIFUL.

    Better is ONE HOUR in the presence of God than any crazy fun adventure in this world (surfing, caving, rafting, whatever!)

    Love you Steph!
    Thanks again to you & your flatmates for your warm hospitality.
