Christmas Outreach Purple Team!

We were split into two teams for Christmas outreach so here is an overview of the purple team, including Carolyn (me), Lucy, Ashley, Jenean, Naomi, Ben, Jayce, Virmz and David. We were cast into different roles for the dramas and dances.




The first drama was called Love of the King, it was a really moving portrayal of God creating the Earth, Angels and Humans, Satan rebelling, man falling, Jesus dying and rising from the dead and then giving men who responding clean hearts. Ben was cast into the role of the King Jesus, he was amazing at it, he made me cry a few times which is an accomplishment in itself! Lucy and Nay were cast into roles of a Philippino and Chinese girl respectively, they were also top at their roles, I played the role of an angel, it was amazing to be a part of the whole thing, my role was a door for 16 out of 17 of the minutes though!

Then we had the dance "Joy to the World", it was a Christmasy fun dance and Ashley and I were in that.











We had a dance called "Streets" which was a hip hop dance, Ashley was in that, alot of the young people at the schools enjoyed this as its very modern.








Lastly we had the clown dance 'I Love Ya', Jayce was a clown, along with our new New Zealand friend Tim, then Jenean and David were dancers in it too. It was the favorite in all the schools, even the high schools which was a big difference to back in England if you tried to do a clown dance in a school!




Apart from that there was testimonies, we all got a go during the outreach of doing a 2 minute testimony which was a good experience, and a new one working with translaters.















Our team also included alot of the Amsterdam team which was here for Christmas Outreach too so it was really good fun working with them. There were lots of stories about people accepting Jesus into thier hearts and alot of pictures and word that came out beforehand in intercession were being seen come to light at the particular outreach which was amazing. But mainly most of us were obedient to God, we spoke to people and helped them along thier journey, only God rreally knows where they were at and how he used us. One thing that really shocked me was the openess of people, the amount of people who had never even heard of Jesus, its very different to the West, and there was a large number of children who responded when they heard of Jesus. That was really cool to see.

We had Christmas day off and we enjoyed a meal together which included food from all over the world, they tried to represent every nation that was here. We had a lovely time together and had two secret santas so we had a couple of presents too! Overall Christmas outreach has been a good experience, its a fabulous thing they put on here every year that anyone can come too, it was a good introduction to Asia.
