Tonight after conference we met with a faith filled team from our church. This team is going to be the first missions trip team to the first ImagineNations church plant! They will fly up and assist in our Easter outreach services we have planned. Each of the team members have varying gifts and talents to contribute. The team is being led by Stu and with him is Brendan, Matt, Josh, Emily & Chloe. I am so excited that we will be seeing them in less than a month after we depart Penrith. To keep costs down for the team, they are going to be staying at home base with us. Some will probably camp in our backyard!
This will be the first of many missions teams who will come and support the work in Darwin. We are also looking forward to having a missions team come later in the year all the way from Mt Zion Church in Yuma, Arizona! There are plans for a team from Calvary Assembly of God in Hawaii to also come sometime in 2011. So grateful we are not doing this church plant on our own! All for God's Glory.

One week till we are "Territorians"!
Sorry it's been a long time since I last blogged - I will try to update more frequently from now on!
This week at church we are having our Missions Conference - "ImagineNations Conference 2010". I am just loving it! All of the messages we have been hearing have been brilliant, inspiring and life changing! I really want this passion that i burning in my heart for missions at the moment to stay with me throughout the whole year. I want to bring that passion with me to Darwin.
.....Speaking of DARWIN....... this time next week we will be spending our first night in our new home city! We fly out of Sydney airport at 2pm and arrive at Darwin airport at 5pm (6:30pm Sydney time). We will spend our first night in a hotel and the next morning we will sign the lease and receive the keys to what will be our home for at least the next twelve months. It will be a full house as we will be living with Laura, Ollie and their baby Marley, as well as Christina! The house has a good layout though and im sure it will be just fine.
For the past two weeks we have been living at my parents house because our furniture has been packed into a container and is now waiting for us in Darwin.
Ollie, Laura and Marley are driving the church 12 seater bus up to Darwin so they are leaving sooner then us, on Monday morning. Hopefully they will arrive sometime on Friday!
Ohhhhhhhhhh, it's getting sooooooo close!!!!!
