Way cool, Hannah. We have friends here in Paraguay who grow up at the Kona base. Her parents were staffing at the time. Also we just hosted one of the DTS from Brazil for part of their "make Him known" training. they focus on art/street performance. It sounds cool. We will be praying for you.

Yes, I am from Lancaster! What part of SA do you serve in? I might be heading down there for a seminar later this year!

Greetings to a fellow YWAMer and a fellow Pennsylvanian. With a last name like Gehman, are you from Lancaster County? I too enduring the "suffering for the Lord" jokes associated with Hawaii. Now I am in South Africa. Good to learn about you!

I don't care how many white-sand beaches a country has- if you don't have access to Chick-Fil-A, you are suffering for the gospel!

I wish CFA delivered period! Then I'd never leave the house! I imagine that even if it was bad CFA (which is rare) it was still incredible!

I wish Chick-Fil-A delivered internationally! We just went back to the states for a CEF conference, and had CFA 3-4 times! I can't tell you how good it tasted for people who hadn't had it, or anything close to it, in a long time.

Thanks so much for sharing more about our ministry to the children down here Chad!!!

True. I think I could make it, but when the cravings got bad I'll just have to fly back for hundreds of dollars so I can have some CFA. And see friends and family, I guess.

Sure the weather is perfect, but no Chick-fil-A could be a deal breaker.

Sounds difficult.

Top shelf Chad. Thanks for having Miles on. You voiced so well some of the things that went through my head before our move. Miles get in touch with me I'm a Greenville SC native and my fam is still there not to mention all our church peeps. Maybe someone wants to get on board with you or Water of Life.

As Miles Mom, I had a lot to learn about faith and followers. I have to be honest and admit that I was torn . My saved soul said "Yes, Lord, he is yours and I know you'll take care of him". The sin nature of my human brain and emotions experienced all the anxieties and questions any mother would have when her son quits a good job, sells all he has and travels to the other side of the world to join God in Kingdom work. But I knew without a doubt this was God's will. I could write a book of how God broke all barriers and lit the path for Miles. It was a tough struggle but I knew my selfishness would not, could not and should not have interfered. It only took a short excursion to the land of Liberia to understand what and why Miles and his Dad were so passionate about the people and God's work there through the Water of Life ministry. I am a sinner, saved by grace through faith in Christ alone. I pray that He will forgive me for the indulgence of the pride I have for my son and his family. I know that it is by God's hand, not mine or his earthly father's, that he has become the man of faith and service. Still, to steal a quote, he is our son, and in him, we are well pleased!

Awesome hearing from Miles.
"God quickly took all my excuses away and left me with a simple choice to go or stay." Funny how He'll do that... way to be faithful, Miles. Sounds like awesome work you're doing over there.

This is great. Miles was my roommate at Auburn. I guess that makes me famous.

I grew up overseas--Soccer was one of the first games I ever played or watched.

I haven't watched a soccer game since Pele came to America.
