Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
I hope you have a blessed holiday season overflowing with love and kindness in the company of friends and family.
As I wander from village to village, I feel it is no idle fancy that the Master walks beside me and I hear His voice saying gently, 'I am with you always, even until the end'.-Lottie Moon

Plans...
Hi friends!
Hope everyone else out there in the world is awesome this festive season! I just wanted to share my plans for the next couple of months briefly with you. In a week or two I am heading home to Mauritius to spend Christmas with my family. This promises to be bittersweet as my parents are leaving Mauritius for Australia in January so this might be my last time in a country I have called home for the last 10 years. From Mauritius I am planning on going to Kenya with my sister Joanna to work in the orphanage I volunteered with 2 years ago. It has been on my heart for a long time to go back and see how all the beautiful kids are. Towards the end of January some other Pick a Pocket members are joining me in Kenya and from there we will head to Ethiopia. We hope to be there for a month supporting the work of the long-term Pick a Pocket members and assisting with our projects in Addis Ababa. I am looking forward to meeting the children from garbage city and getting a heart for the work we are doing there. Please pray that I have enough money for my time in east-Africa and that God will work in mighty ways!
Thanks so much!

Walk With Me To Water Castle from Laken Chapman on Vimeo.
This is a lovely little video my roommate made of the walk into the Herrnhut YWAM base from our room in the Jesus Haus. It takes about 35 minutes in winter and my record for slipping over is 12 times.

I'm a superhero!
My finance prayer partner and neighbour, Taylor, always has just the most awesome newsletters and I am so honored to be featured in his latest one! He is a super talented photographer and an amazing person completely dedicated to serving the students of the Marriage of the Arts DTS and seeing God work in his life. Please join with me in praying for his finances so he is able to do what God has so specifically called him to do. He is co-leading a very large team to Ethiopia so please pray that he has an inexhaustible spirit and uncontrollable energy! Have a look at his website- he takes all his photos on film. Thanks!
