I (Cary) am flying to Asia TOMORROW! I love the nations and I am so excited to be traveling to 4 countries in 15 days! I just wanted to send a quick update out about what's been going on here in Hawaii and what my desires and prayer requests are for this upcoming trip. Here is a rough itinerary

*Feb 1st- The Philippines

*Feb 6th- "South East Asian Nation"

*Feb 9th- Nepal

*Feb 13th- Thailand

*Feb 15th- Honolulu

Prayer Requests for Cary

*safety and good health

*traveling mercies

*to be a true blessing to our outreach teams

*To build relationship with our long term workers as well to dream and cast vision with them about how the Lord would have us partner together in the future.

Chris and I, as well as the base leadership at YWAM Honolulu feel strongly that we are to make strategic partnerships with long term ministries in Asia and the South Pacific. We are in a process of praying about how to choose those ministries as well how we can serve them and partner together for the sake of the Kingdom. Our goal is to have long lasting fruit from our short term outreaches and that can only be accomplished through these vital partnerships. So please be in prayer for me on this trip as I get renewed vision for the goals we believe the Lord has put before us.

While I will be visiting teams from our Sept DTS Chris will be holding down the fort for our January DTS. We are into our 3rd week in DTS and we are excited about what we see happening with this school as well.

Prayer Requests for Chris

*wisdom in leadership and decision making

*rest times with the Lord

*continued discipleship with staff

*that our students will feel loved and challanged to go after God with everything they have

One of our long term workers in the Philippines sent me an email last week raving about how much of a blessing our outreach team was. Below are a few pics of their outreach. They shared the love of Jesus through song and dance in the streets as well as treating over 200 kids for lice. I am so proud of them!
