England and Albania

For years now, International missions work has a hold on my heart. Summer 2011 I got the privilege to go do ministry and missions work in England and Albania. We spent 5 weeks preaching and teaching, leading worship, praying for the sick, ministering to the poor, and offering support to local ministries

The Lord established so many Kingdom relationships over the 5 weeks. While in England, we met several people from a church in Leichester... They were amazing. We spent 4 or 5 days with the leadership of the church and I have never felt the kind of 'Father-heart' leadership that these men and women offered... I instantly felt like a 'son' in their church and in their homes.

While in Tirana, Albania we met a girl named Hemya. She is from Jerusalem and was visiting Albania for a photography competition. We spent about a week and a half with her and she received Jesus and is experiencing incredible life change. Here is a link to a blog that was made for her, featuring her testimony and some other great stuff. check it out! I have never seen someone encounter the Lord and have such a drastic shift in how they live their life. She spoke about the life in the 'Holy Land' and how she knew that God was real... but after meeting Jesus, her life is just different. It's absolutely amazing. Check out her testimony here. http://hemyamoran.blogspot.com/ Help support her trip to Austin for an upcoming conference!

Below is a link to check out an 'overview' video of the trip.
