Timor Leste Report

Personal reflections/thoughts
This was my first overseas mission trip after graduating as
a physiotherapist. I had very much wanted to learn and explore
what God was doing and the needs in other parts of the world
then. Also, I thought it would be good if I could offer a “first
fruits” offering before stepping into the working world
by going on to a mission trip.
The blessings were tremendous. I made new friends, learnt that
needs are real and diverse, unity is key, a little can be much
with love. I was also blessed with several job opportunities
after I returned from the trip. I hope this short note can encourage
you to take a step of faith and embark on a trip. Truly, it’s
more blessed to give than receive!
