Why would a family give up a comfortable life in Sydney and move to one of the more under-developed countries in this modern world? This is what our friends have been doing for the last 14 years - committed to sharing the good news of Jesus to the lost. But living in a remote rural area and running a farm? Not pastoring a church? Not training local Christians?  We wanted to understand and see for ourselves what they are actually doing over there. 

So off we went with our 3 kids - and this in a nutshell is what we saw. You see it isn't about running a farm. It isn't even about using the farm as a cover to get into the country to do church planting and training of local Christians. It's about being a shining light in a dark world - a region where life is hard and people are often broken and oppressed. A God-owned oasis radiating the love of Jesus, and all the goodness that entails, in a region where He is not known. And through this, people coming to desire Jesus as the Truth.

We have seen it first hand ... and yes .. we totally get it. The work they are doing is not just a good strategic idea - it is essential if the lost are to be found in all regions around the world.  Please join us in upholding our friends in your prayers.
