You're a stubborn little thing aren't you

There's a good chance I'll end up in Chile. Here's a great video of some Chileans who are involved with the Anglican Bible college in the capital, Santiago. They begin by talking about life as a Christian in Chile and about cultural differences with Australia. From 6'30'' they talk about the Bible college.

Oh and September/October is looking more likely for when I'll be getting on that plane :) I'll let you know more as 'news comes to hand'. Now, didn't I say something about going away?

You ain't welcome

In case you've popped back to see if there's any news - there ain't none. But don't worry, I'll be sure to let you know once there is. For now, I'm busy learning Spanish, reading books about spiritual warfare and Latin American religion and culture, and working for my church. I've just got one more doctor's appointment to go before I finish my application - which has proved to be a long-winded process. Things will hot up again once I know where I'm going - there'll be finances to sort out, pamphlets to write, churches to visit, visas to get etc etc. But for now, if you wouldn't mind, I'd appreciate prayer that I'll:
  • end up in a place (and working with people) where I can function well;
  • be gracious and at peace throughout this time of waiting and negotiation;
  • be passionate about the wellbeing of people in Latin America.
