Finishing Out My Second Week

Hello Friends, To update you I’d like to start out by saying thank you for all of your prayers as I transition into this dicipleship training school. It has been a lot to get used to. But I have already begun seeing the Lord begin to move in not only my life but also the […]

Beginning Classes

Yesterday I began my first day of three months of lecture classes. Each week will be focused on a different topic. This week’s topic is the history of YWAM Ships and the Islands of Hawaii. Something that Holoholo DTS is passionate about is understanding the culture and history of Hawaii in order to be able […]

I Made It!

I’ve arrived in Kona, Hawaii for a discipleship training school with YWAM. The school begins this coming Wednesday and I’m incredibly excited! Thank you to everyone who has supported me both financially and through prayer as I begin this program. I’ll keep posting updates here as I begin the school! With love, Katie Armstrong

We All Need More Than “a little” Christmas

I need a little Christmas, more than a little. In fact I feel that I’ve been operating on edge lately. Lots of stuff to blame…finances, relationships, politics, there seems to be no limit to the number of things that conspire to rob me of joy. Can you relate? I get so caught up in my […]

Berlin

Hey all, Sam here! We are in Albany, preparing our move to the Detroit area, and I thought I’d post a little over the next few days about what we are doing, what we will be doing, and first, what we have done already. While looking to the future, and managing the present, putting some […]

#Revival

Earlier in the evening, I received a text confirming that a family we had been sharing the Gospel with had accepted Christ. I met this family along with the members of our last team. We had prayed for God to open a new door and had walked not even 10 feet in the refugee camp […]

Two Men, the Last Tea, and Jesus.

I could tell you about the huge meal we were served, all 18 of us. I could tell you about the fun the kids had or the laughter all of us adults shared. Or about the journey to get there, by train, by months and months of ministry, on the backs of team after team. […]
