On the 6th of January I am leaving this cold, cold country behind, and travelling to the beautiful Australia. Townsville, Queensland, to be exact. I will be going with an organisation called YWAM (Youth With A Mission) and will be doing a'Discipleship Training School' for about 5 and a half months. The title given to this programme is REEF TO OUTBACK (or RTO). The aim of the school is to help its students to'Know God, and make Him known'. This is done through lectures, group and personal bible study and worship, life-application and of course through various mission and outreach. I will spend a total of approximately 3 months in Townsville at the RTO Base, and 2 months on outreach. Outreach tends to happen for 3 weeks early on in the DTS, and then 5 weeks nearer the end. Both outreach trips are likely to be in a different country. Where and when we go is completely down to prayer and isn't decided until a few weeks before. I will post updates as soon as I find out more about my outreach. Finally, I am going with about 40 other young people, and returning around the 10th/11th of June. You'll hardly know i was gone! For more information on what I'm doing, keep watching this blog, or visit:www.ywamrto.org. Cheers.
