Hello everyone!!!

Its been a long time I know!! so maybe you are wondering what I have been up to lately!
well I spend almost 2 years in Japan staffing DTS's and that was a lot of fun and I learned a lot! God is good and I love the way He is leading me. A year ago I came back home to switzerland and waited to see where God would lead me next.
I loved being at home, my church is awesome and I have some really great friends here. Hanging out with my family is been a real blessing. Two of my sister-in-laws had some more kids.... so I am a 3 times aunt and I am happy to have seen the whole pregnancy and the first months of those 2 little sweet babies! yeah!!!

Now I am getting prepared for the next step. INDIA!! I am excited and finally the waiting is over. After one year of waiting, working and hanging out with friends I am glad that God has opend a door for me to go again into a foreing country!
I know every season has his purpose and so I am grateful for the time I had here. I learn a lot about trusting Him in the last few years but mostly in the last few months I have been learning to rest in Him and to trust Him on a deeper level. You know this whole thing about being rather a Marie... then a Martha..... yeah its been challenging for I love doing things and being busy helps sometimes not to think to much. But well I guess it was about time to learn more to be in God and not to do. I don't think I get the fullness of it yet but step after step I am growing and this is encouraging.

So India. yeah!!! I am not sure what God is up to but I have figure out some of the things or places I am going. First of all I will start with a Organisation called Empart (they are training young christians to do some church planting and then they send them out on a bike and with some bibles and money to go into north India and plant churches there). We will go on a 3 week prayer-journey and interced in different locations and have a bit of a tast of what this organisation is doing there. I will be in a group with people all around the world. It is exciting for me to start this trip in prayer and with a group of people. For after this 3 first weeks I will be on my own. We will be more or less around New Dehli for the prayer-journey and then after that I will be traveling to Calcutta by train. I am sure it will work out somehow. There in Calcutta I will join a missions organisation called Emanuel Ministries Calcutta, they have different project going on from helping prostitutes, street-childrens, homeless, health-care to helping drugadicts. I have there the privilege to go and see, learn and help out in those different things. I am really excited about helping in the slums of calcutta. Well I don't know how long I will be there and what will be after that..... so thats how far I know...... the rest is up to God and I am excited what He will do.

I feel that God is leading me into a deeper intimacy and I am not sure what I should expect but maybe its anyways better not to have expectation and just see what will come and enjoy it. I hope though that I will see more of God for there is so much more to discover. I hoping to learn more about how to run an organisation and to see what is needed. If after that I see it fit to study some more or where to go from there. I hope to find out more about my calling but what I want to see is the beauty of God and learn to be dependent on Him.

Thats about it and I will hopefully keep this blog and you updated!!!
