Enjoying Australia


Just a quick update to say we are enjoying Australia and having a lot of fun. God is amazing and has given us the opportunity to experience new things, try new foods and see the diversity and richness of His creation. We have also been able to use the time to make good connections and share about what God is doing in Mexico. We are very excited about the next steps in ministry and our Lord is opening up the doors for exhilarating new opportunities. Please keep praying and more news soon!

We are currently on the Gold Coast staying with some of our dear friends and partners in ministry and we have been to visit AMT today. More updates when we have a good internet connection.

Sharing at Canterbury Gardens


Hi all,

We are having a great time here in Australia and seeing and doing lots of things as a family. Today we went to Canterbury Gardens Community Church and Phil was interviewed about our work in Mexico. He shared about our passion for making disciples and the new project we are planning to open a cafe and art gallery space for uni students to connect, express and learn about Jesus.

We have almost 600 photos already, so I will try and find a few highlights to blog over the next little while.

Take care!
Phil, Sandy and Romi

Ready to go

Hi all,

It's late, we're tired and the cases are still open with things popping in and out. We are very excited to be travelling to Australia tomorrow and can't wait to be on our way! Please pray for us as we travel over the next 48 hours and arrive in Melbourne on Tuesday morning at about 8am. We will be flying from Mexico to LA and then to Melbourne. Please pray for our health as we've all been down with a cold and also that God would protect and guide us every step of the journey.

Our desire is to be a blessing to those around us and to bless others in our trip to Australia.

Take care and see you soon!

Phil and Sandy
