Salvation is HERE!
The Impact World Tour is approaching the half way point after this week. To date over 5,500 people have committed their lives to Jesus and made Him the Lord of all. Each of these dear individuals is being connected into the local churches here in Fiji that are partnering with this evangelistic effort.
Jen and I could not be more excited about the things that we have been able to be a part of. We have both been able to pray with people, lead people to the Lord, Aaron leads worship on the drums several times a week, and we have both been able to have very meaningful conversations with the team speaking life and truth into their hearts.
We are almost done with some of our Fiji footage. We will try and have it posted by the end of the week.
We love you all.
Blessings,
Aaron, Jen, and Ryen

Fiji...
I think many people think of Fiji as a place where the rich and famous go to vacation. Pictures of miles of coastline with white sand, palm trees, and 5 star hotels is more than likely the first thing that comes to mind. At first thought, it might not make much sense to go evangelize a place like the one mentioned above, especially since it's considered a "Christian" nation.
BUT, Jen and I have found that Fiji is much different than our Western minds have imagined. Yes, there are resorts, beaches, and palm trees. But only in small select areas. The vast majority of Fiji is your typical 3rd world country. Poverty, corruption, religious control, massive abuse, etc... However, we are seeing HUGE breakthrough in the peoples' lives here. Over 3,200 have made first time commitments after our 2nd week in country. We have 5 more to go. A Hindi pastor was saved and is being discipled, a man got out of a wheel chair after 20 years, asthma is being cured, etc... Jesus is on the move.
In addition to all of that, Fiji has BIG bugs. Cockroaches, beetles, moths the size of small birds...seriously. Imagine taking a shower only to see a frog the size of softball jump right in front of you followed by a mondo roach. This is the Fiji we have discovered. AND WE LOVE IT! We've slept on straw mats, on the floor, on ferries, and buses. This is the Fiji we know. AND WE LOVE IT!
Please keep our family in your prayers.

Philippines Video
Jen and I finally finished our update video from Bohol Philippines. We'll get our Fiji video out much sooner...we promise. In any case, this will give you an idea of what we were up to during our stay in Bohol.
God's fire to you all,
