2nd week @ the Counselling School

Hi guys! Como va? (how're u doing?)

The second week of the counselling school is over and to be honest I'm so thankful for God about everything He's done this week!

I'm not any more the only male student in this course as my school mate came from Colombia last Sunday. I'm so happy he came and we are already really good friends.

Almost all of us!

On the classes we continued with the same theme we started last week. The core idea of the teaching is that even though we should have built our lives according to God's love and truth we haven't done that well. The lack of experiencing God's unconditional love, the pain and the lies we heard have made us build our lives on the foundations of rejection and rebellion. Maybe it all sounds crazy but the clases really opened my mind to see how far away I have lived from God's love and truth. This all forms our personality and steals us our heritance: sonship in Christ.

Haha, this was REALLY compact way to share about this topic. But to be honest it has been amazing time. God has opened my eyes to know myself more. I have got to see some stuff I don't like but also the richness of gifts and beauty that He has set on me when He created me. And yeah, these revelations have come through many tears. Tears of pain and tears of being loved. 

The financial challenge

Some people have asked me how I'm doing with my finances, if I have food to eat etc. Praise God we eat really well (haha) at this school and I don't need to buy my own food. I have paid almost the half of the theory part of the school (3 months). So I'm still lacking the half of the theory part and the whole outreach (3 months). We are talking about $1700 - $3000 USD depending where the outreach will be. 

Most possible we will be divided in 3 groups during the outreach. One of the groups will go to Cuba, another to different parts of Argentina and one group to Great Britain, Germany & Spain. So obviosly different destinations have different costs. This becoming week I will be praying where God wants me to send me this time! 

I know and feel everyday that I'm in the right place. God is doing amazing things and He still have greater things for me. So I'm very sure that I'm here because of His will and He will also provide my financial needs on a way or another.

As I wrote in the last post my major reason to do this school is to receive help and restoration. Of course I also know that God's blessing will overflow to others from my life. During my school we evangelize our neighborhood and the outreach is all about helping others. But this time your financial help will be more than anything to bless me instead of supporting the missions directly. So please don't you hesitate to write me here or on Facebook or email me if you want to bless me during this precious time.

Ok the reason of these nice clothes and dancing is the opening
of a new DTS at this base.
The DTS has its focus on the world of fashion.
 It seems to be the first DTS in YWAM having this focus.

I worship Him:

• for the encounters with God during this week
• for my school mates
• for He will provide everything I need.

I pray:

• for my residence. I have my turn to the Migrations on Tuesday but it seems that one document I lack isn't ready yet. 
• for the finances of the school
• for God's guidance with the outreach destinations
