I was reading through my journal from my DTS last night, processing some of the things from my outreach to Nepal and India that I have long left unprocessed. After my team got back from outreach, we broke up into new teams with people from all of the different outreach groups – Moldova, Turkey, Thailand, East Asia, Uganda. We went …
“I, Garett Collins, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic…” This was the honorary speech I repeated at the Military Entrance Processing Station. I was 18 years old and fresh out of high school. I thought that the military was the right path for me and my …
Shouts ring out in unison in the classroom: “Long jump!! Short jump!! High jump!!” Each shout is preceded by an orange-shirted, slack-wearing, black-haired Chinese man, otherwise known as yours truly, jumping from side to side. “Great!” I say, with only a little breath in my lungs. “Now who can tell me what the adverbs are?” An enthusiastic, tall and kind-faced …

We follow our friend through town and ask who we are meeting and where. It turns out we’re meeting a man who runs a liquor store nearby. We pray …
by Nick S., DTS student, Nepal The highlight of my day was after we left the elementary school and stopped at a fork in the road. We stuck out as obvious foreigners — and managed to attract a large crowd of the locals. We met up with another YWAM team from Nashville and decided to use the opportunity of having …
by Elizabeth J., BSN student Our first week of teaching in Nepal was filled with laughter at our attempts to speak Nepali, and cups of steaming chai and dry rusks during “tea break.” We enjoy learning from the Nepali students when class is over — they’ve taught us some great dance moves. 😉 During our teaching we overviewed foundations for …
