Last week was mission week at St John's. 6 Ugandan's also came over to get involved with the work we would be doing. I was involved with the prayer visiting, where we went out in twos and knocked on people's doors and offered to pray for them. We had a mixture of responses, however we did get to pray with two people which was really good, and i was amazed how open people were about what was going on in their lives. We also got involved in the Besem project that Jon and Ivan were a part of, we helped to paint some comunity centres in ipswich, which was fun and ment i walked round Ipswich looking like a chav in my trackies but it was all worth it. As a result of that Jon and Ivan were able to get future projects to help with, which was good. On the friday I was also lucky to go out street pastoring, with a team of about 20 others. We walked around Woodbridge praying for the people that were out and for the people in their houses. I enjoyed this, but it got very cold!

I learnt a lot from this week, as I was pretty scared at the thought of offering to pray with people but God gave me the confidence and the words to say. I also learnt to trust in him and not go out in my own strength. First blog complete :]
