So last week we were at a YWAM base called Gleanings. There were a lot of differences between that base and our base, but at the same time there were many similarities. It was out in the middle of nowhere, even compared to our base that only has a 7 Eleven in walking distance. The main ministry of Gleanings YWAM is to package food and send it to countries in need. They receive all type of donations to keep the base running, including the food they are sending to other countries. It was an awesome food ministry, but it was hard being there. I struggled in a lot of different ways. Basically, I was humbled and realized how desperate I need the gospel of Jesus Christ. Sometimes God really has to take us places to open up our eyes. Had a great time Wednesday and on, but was definitely ready to come home. It was awesome being around a smaller group of my fellow DTS students, but I missed the other half of our family. Man it’s going to be hard to leave for outreach.
Here are some pictures from the Gleanings base:
