Happy New Year everyone.

Well we are on the start of outreach here in Byron Bay doing Impact Summer. There are about 5 other DTS teams from other parts of Australia here with us, so there are about 100 of us altogether.

Each day we begin with a time of worship and devotionals then after lunch we head out into town or the beach to do creative evangelism, which is anything from beach vollyball to healings to making hair wraps to live music.

How did everyone spend their new years eve? We spent it in the one of the parks giving out free pancakes, chi tea and healing people. It was truely incrediable seeing every single person being prayed for being healed by God. We were praying for things such as colds, bad backs to broken arms and legs.

We have also put on free BBQs in the park, (we have such a strong emphasis on it all being free and just showing others God's love). We have also gone into one of the parks and split up into different groups and put on different stalls for people to join in; hair wraps, live music, spiritual readings/prophetic readings, face painting, self portraits, healings and God questions. This worked really well and was another great atmosphere showing God's love to the people of Byron Bay.

Prayer requests:

  • One of our staff members has had to go home due to personal reasons, so we only have Daniel the school leader as the only staff member. Prayers for wisdom, strength and peace over this whole situation.
  • Due to road flooding near Brea Warrina, we are unsure whether we can make it there, so we may end up at another aboriginal community; location of that is unknown at the moment.
  • Continued team unity, especially as we are down to one staff member.



Thanks again



The Gold Coast DTS team
