God Is Amazing!

Hi all,

I wanted to thank every one of you who gave (or are giving) towards my trip to Mongolia. It was so amazing to see God provide in such a short time!

About three weeks ago, I needed $3,000.00, and our school had been praying LOTS for the provision of this money. As of yesterday, I have pledges for exactly what I need for everything, as well as a bit extra. God is awesome! All of us in the class really got the point that God was trying to make - That we need to be seeking Him, not the money! He allows these times of need to come into our lives for a time to point us to Him, and set our focus right!

The Walkathon fundraiser we completed as a school went well... if you know Perth at all, or simply want to know, we walked up one side of the Swan river towards Kings Park, across to the other side, and then down towards the bridge at East Perth. It was definitely 12 kilometers, our legs could feel it, but it was worth it to see some needs be met, and to also just have that time to get to know fellow team mates. Thanks to all of you who gave towards that!

Please take time to praise God for the awesome ways He comes through for us, and continue to pray for a real heart and vision for Mongolia AND Australia, as our trip will be about half in Australia and half in Mongolia. I know that as we have met as a team, we can see the result of your prayers and ours. God has really been speaking to us about the needs in Mongolia and also telling us we don't want to forget the Australians! :-P

Thanks again for everything, I really wouldn't be doing this without your support - I appreciate all your thoughts and generosity.

In Him,


Carter Bandy
