skate church

hey everyone. so im under the crunch this week i have two film projects due in a couple weeks so i need to finish this week to get a bunch made. so please keep me in prayer, i need help from God to do this.

This last weekend was skate church in Cooulum. it went really good we had 27 kids and 50 in total with adults and help. it was cool to see the kids all show up. pray that they well keep coming back. On this skate church i spoke on choices, what are good and bad ones and who we are allowing to influence our choices.









Some hurdles are in front of me concerning the film school that starts in march. I'm still waiting on some stuff from the application process for the school, but I'm hopeful that it is all going to work out. The finance's are still missing but last night while i was praying God took me to the book of Esther 2:8-12. The section talks about Esther finding favor when she was being prepared to go before the King. then she went through numerous beauty treatments and preparation stages. I believe that God is saying that He is going to send me to this school even though i don't have the money, but that ill find favor and start to be prepared for the exact task and moment He has put me here for. I know that this is going to be a great testimony to Gods work in my life. I've been asking that God would keep his testimony in my heart and on my lips. so i think He is answer that prayer and putting things in motion.

LOVE ya all. talk to you soon

building and playing

hey everyone, things are going good here. im working like a mad man. trying to finish projects and do worship for the school. though i have to say this morning at worship some of the students played with me during worship and did a great job, its was nice to have good musicians.

A must see is our new skate ministry web site! after 10 years of ministry there is finally a site for you to check out.

www.onefriday.org

whats going on in 2009

This week the DTS kicked off with Morning Worship led by a friend Jon C. and myself. Its cool having a whole new group of students come through wanting and willing to hear God for their lives! It was on this January school two years ago that I started my Journey with YWAM, time flies. I’m stoked to be leading worship for this school before my journey takes off into a new chapter.....

My Plans For 2009

"If it is the Lords will, we will live and do this or that". (James 4:13-15)
This is all to help me further the ministry I’m doing here, so if it’s God's will, then I’ll go! (He knows us all and the plans he has for us to prosper us and not to harm us!)

The first leg of the journey will start in....

MARCH, when I’ll be heading to California to see my good friend Sean Naus get married to his beautiful fiancĂ©e Emily Jilson. Then in....

APRIL ill be heading to Kona Hawaii to attend a School of Digital Film at the University of the Nations (YWAM). This school is 3 months of intense study and application in film (movie) creation. I’m confident that I will gain many good tools to bring back to Australia to continue to improve First Fruits Productions, Media Ministry. Then in.....

JULY ill be going to Las Vegas to intern with the xxxchurch, www.xxxchurch.com helping out in anyway possible with filming and whatever i can do to serve them in their ministry there. Then in.....

AUGUST I hope to travel to the East coast of the USA to see some long missed friends and family then to Arizona and California to catch up with everyone there as well! (Love and miss you all, can’t wait) Then in....

SEPTEMBER, Back to Australia! To do a two or three week outreach going to skate parks around Australia preaching the Gospel! Then back to the Sunshine coast to continue doing ministry locally, and hopefully get a place to settle in and call my own, yeeew!


I am thankful to all who supported me over the last two years; Words cannot begin to describe your importance and value to me. You have played a massive part in the task God has given me to do. So humbly, I want to say, Thank you! I can’t wait until the day you can all see the full work you have done, ushering in people to Christ through your support.

I know with the economy the way it is right now, money is tight for everyone. Over this last year I have lived off less than $10,000, and $1,200 of that went to two children I support in Indonesia. Then on top of that I tithe to other missionaries and to the Church. I’m saying this all to show you God is Faithful! GOD IS FAITHFUL! He has provided me with extra work locally for short periods of time, side jobs, and random donations. I’m so blessed because I haven't really felt like I’ve had to go without anything this last year.

I want to Challenge every person who reads this to think about and prayerfully consider supporting me in 2009, to either give a one time gift or monthly donation. I can’t do what i do without your support, both prayerfully and finically.

Also could you forward this on to two other people that I’m not in contact with, as I would like to share my ministry with more people.
