Joseph in the Nations: Because of you!

In one week I will be moving to Kona Hawaii to start staff training for the Fire & Fragrance Discipleship Training School that kicks off January 3rd. Over the past 2 years, University of the Nations has seen this school grow from 40 students per quarter to an expected 200 student quarter this coming January. I attended Fire & Fragrance DTS this past January and my life was totally changed. My heart has been transformed from someone who just believed in God to a man who will now live the rest of his life doing what it takes to see people know and experience the love and forgiveness of God. My heart is to see this generation awakened to complete freedom in Christ, to see people be delivered from false identities, brokenness and hurt placed on them from the world around them and to see them walk in the will that the Lord has for them. Either it be through people seeing the Love of God through my actions, leading of worship or conversation, this destiny for my life is sealed and set in stone. By the

grace of God I will live as an example of Christ love.

In January of this year, my Fire & Fragrance Discipleship Training School had 100 students and many of us have felt the call from God to return and help train the next wave of world traveling missionaries. Through much prayer, I have decided to return to Kona, accepting the staff position to help disciple students and lead an outreach team to the nations. Lecture phase is from Jan-March, outreach phase is from April-June. I am asking for you to prayerfully consider financially supporting me during this time.

Giving up one Starbucks drink weekly could be $25 a month of support. That's an incredible blessing!

My current monthly need is: $600
My current monthly support is: $100
I am still in need of $500

We were given the opportunity to clean a mans apartment in Amsterdam. He suffered from server alcoholism and depression. My crew cleaned the living room and other areas in the house. My other daring friends on my outreach team cleaned his bathroom where human feces was smeared all over the floors. After the man returned home and saw how we cleaned his home he said "I do not deserve this, why did you do this". We were able to tell him that we loved him and that he was worthy to be loved. some of our friends got to share with him about the Love of God and salvation through Jesus Christ. Because of the opportunity the Lord opened for us to serve this man, he agreed to go get help from his addiction.
