Mini outreach!

We are leaving early tomorrow morning to drive 13 hours to Salem! The space for our luggage is really limited, so everyone was asked to bring just their day pack, and I had such a hard time fitting everything for a week inside it. I have no idea how I am going to fit everything for a two month outreach in the same pack!
We haven't been given a lot of details about what we'll be doing during the week, but I know that each morning we will still have lectures with the DTS there like we do here. I think the rest of the days we will be doing a lot of street ministry.
I'm not taking my computer with me, so I will update you all when I get back!

Week four!

This weeks topic is the history of missions, and it has already been so eye opening.
We are also getting ready to leave for our mini outreach this Sunday! We will be spending one week in Salem Oregon working with the DTS there. We haven't been given details yet on what we will be doing there, but I will try to keep everyone updated as I learn more. Please pray for the school staff as they are making the final preparations for the trip, and for the people that we will be working with.

Week three!

Hey all!
I am just starting my third week of DTS and I wanted to give you a short update on whats going on. The first week was mostly just an introduction to YWAM week, and we had a variety of short lectures to prepare for the weeks to come. During that week we all picked a track, which is a specific area that you want to serve in, and all day Friday is spent with those groups learning how to use your giftings for God. I love photography, and am doing the art track, which has so far been very exciting.
At the end of the first week our outreach locations were announced, and we will be sending teams to India, North Thailand, South Thailand, and Malaysia. We all took some time to pray on our own about which country God wanted us to go to, and the teams were announced the next day. For my outreach I will be spending two months in South Thailand!
The topic for the second week was The Father Heart of God, and it was amazing. I am just starting to really understand the depth of God's love for the first time. I've been trying to think how I can tell you what else is going on, but really I don't even know. I just know that God is working in me, and my life is going to be changed forever. I'm excited to see where it leads.
The topic for this week is the basics of Christianity, and I am already learning so much.
Please continue to pray for my finances while I am here as I still do not have the full cost of the outreach phase. If you feel led to support me feel free to email me - dearjanae@gmail.com, or you can just send a check to me at the base - 501 Blacktail Road, Lakeside, MT.
Thank you so much for your encouragement and support <3
