I will Trust You...?

In 10 days, I'll be on a plane headed to my most beloved nation, South Africa. I can not say these past several months preparing for it has been easy. It has been the hardest trip to prepare for. Last night the Lord reminded me of what I told Him the first day we had the meeting for SA. I remember hearing myself say, "lord if u will let me go, I will go. Even if you provide at the last min. I will trust you." Oh how easy it was for me to say it, but how hard it was for me to actually act upon it.

For some strange reason, when remembering that, it gave me comfort. Knowing that, He IS my provider. No matter how crazy this trip may sound. That I would comment to a 9 day missions trip, a month AFTER I got back from YWAM. I understand, it seems totally crazy that I would jump into something that fast, and your prob. right. I shouldn't have done it. But when I asked Abba if I could go and He said yes, there was no doubt in my mind that He wouldn't provide.

I may have doubted these 3 months that he would get me there, and I am sorry for that. But today is a new day, and I believe what He has told me everyday since then,"Trust in me, and I will provide," is true. I only have 300 dollars, and I need 2,000 more. In less than 10 day's I believe with faith in my heart that He will make it happen. He has proven to me, that nothing is impossible. So, as you read this, pray for me, that I keep on trusting in Him.

And if you will like to donate any kind of amount towards my trip:

Leaving Soon For Africa

In 24 days, I'm leaving for South Africa and to be honest I only have 200 dollars saved up for the trip. I know the Lord wants me to go, and He has told me constantly that he will provide the money for me. So I am stepping out in faith that he will keep his promise.

I work part time at Loft but its not enough money for me to get to Africa, so I started brain storming of what i could do on the side to raise the amount I need. Just this past Christmas, I got a new camera, so I am starting up my photography again. So if anyone is needing some, Senior photos, family, photos, pet photos. Anything!! Email me at: littlebluebird7@gmail.com

All of the money I will get, will go all towards my South Africa trip.

The total cost for the trip is 2,305 dollars. I'm leaving in 24 days. Will be there for 9 days and I know the lord will take me there. Nothing is impossible through Him.

Here is a link to my Fan Page on fb of some of my Photography work, to give you an idea of what I do.

South Africa

Dear Friends,

   First, thank you all for your support during my YWAM training and outreach to Asia and N.K.  Serving the people of Asia and sharing the love of the Father was such an amazing experience.  God plainly showed me how much He loves every culture.  Every life is precious to Him.  Because of this, proclaiming the goodness and love of God to the nations has become my heartbeat.  I’m not sure yet of all the details, but I believe the Lord is calling        me to serve as a missionary at some point in my future.

When I returned home after YWAM, I felt like my next trip would be to Africa because of the deep love that has grown in my heart for that nation.  After praying about it, I felt like the Lord spoke very strongly to me that I would have the opportunity to go.

Well, it happened very fast!  My church, Crossroads Community Church (soon to be “City Church”), is taking a team to South Africa in February and I believe I’m supposed to go.  We will be in a small town called White River working with a YWAM missionary named Rich Hodge.  He works with orphans affected by the AIDS crisis and with troubled teens.  Our goal is to build relationships with the people there and share the love of God with the children by playing, feeding and spending time with them.  I am very excited to love on them the way the Lord loves on me.  The dates for our trip are February 4^th to the 13^th.

So here I am now asking all of you to pray for me and see if the Lord would have you support me.  I know it’s the worst time to ask for a donation, since Christmas is just around the corner and money is tight, but I am simply following God and obeying him. 

My needs are as follows:

·         $500 by December 31^st which is my first installment of payments

·         $1000 by January 15th, second installment

·         $1000 balance before I leave on my trip

I am working full-time right now at Loft and hope to be able to replace my camera that broke in N.K. with the money I am earning.

Here is how you can donate:

• Personal check payable to CrossRoads Community Church with “Hannah Nett – South Africa” on the memo line.

A New Heart for A New Nation

As most of you know I'm back home now. It's been 3 days since I've been back, and adjusting to the time differences here and just adjusting back to my normal life is weird but I'm glad to be back. I didn't think I would be, because I wanted to stay in  Kona, Hawaii. But I realized once I got home, where my heart really wanted to be.

I can't stop thinking about East Asia. The more I talk about it. The more I miss that place. Someone asked me the other day why I missed Asia. so much and I told her, "I have no idea!"  But I came to the conclusion today, that I may have hated living in the city and in the busy atmosphere but I love the people and what the father is doing there.

I have no idea whats my next step in life, but I do know I'll be home for a while, doing things such as learning how to cook. Spend time with my mentors, get a job, a car, and save money for a new camera. I don't know what life holds after all those things, are accomplished but I hope and desire to return back to Asia. Before I came back Home I kept thinking about doing the track but just never felt peace about it, but I did feel peace that the lord was going to show me my next step in life when I get back home. And I think He already did. I can't stop thinking about Asia.  : ]

It amazes that though I have a desire to go back to Asia I don't know when, how, or what I'd be doing if I went back. But I'm not worried about it. I just got back home and I'm going to enjoy every moment of every day and not look to the future and worry of things that do not need to be worried about. I know that when the time comes to "worry" about those things, God will show me.

I love talking about everything I experienced so if you have any questions, please let me know!

My Life is Forever Changed

For 3 months I traveled with 3 other people for 3 months through out East Asia, including N.K. I'm here now back in Kona, Hawaii doing our debrief. Since last Friday I've been deep in thought about everything I experienced. Its hard to put in words what I feel, when I don't even know myself what I'm really feeling. But I do know this, God is Love and if God is love, then love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always preserves. That is what God did through out my life and the people around me during my dts outreach.

Before we left for our outreach I never cared about going to East Asia. Now I can't wait to go back. :] I am so in love with Asia! I have experienced God's love in that place so much, that at times it was very overwhelming. I have so much respect for them as well, because they choose to follow God even when it means putting their life on the line. Even when we talked to the college students about Him they didn't quit understand it, but they were hungry and willing to be open to the idea of a God, that so loved the world He gave his only son to die on the cross. That we may live forever with our Father in heaven. 

You sometimes have this idea that your out to change the world but most of the time the world ends up changing you. That's what happened on my outreach. 

Good Bye Room 90

Since this morning, my roommate and I have been packing, cleaning, and storing our items. I look around the room, clean as can be, and more than anything I'm going to miss room 90. Almost all my sisters are gone, and words cannot express how much I miss them. I miss there laughter, there silly voices, there hugs, and smiles. Every time I look at there beds, I image them sitting or laying there smiling. When I look out the window I thank the Lord every time for putting me in room 90. We had such fun times in here, but more than anything our main subject was pointed to God. He is everywhere in room 90. He blessed us with His grace, and peace but most of all His presences. Seeing everything packed and ready to go, makes me wish I didn't have to leave this room. But I am very honored to be the last person leaving here. Just as the roommates before us prayed over this room, we have done the same, and everyday I will continue to bless this room until I leave.


My roommates and I never had conflict between each other. Not one fight, just love. And that is by the grace of God that we were able to love each other and not fight. Thank you God for your love, and that you put a desire in the roommates before us, to pray over this room. You sure do listen to our prayers :)

5 days left!!

I just came back from my last class that we will be having here. I'm not sad at all that we are all splitting up. I'm so excited to head out and see what the Lord has in store for me and what I can give back to Him. I am bit nervous so please keep me in your prayers.

I also want you guys to know, that today I am putting all the stuff that I'm not bring on outreach into storage.  Such as my phone and laptop. So if you call me or text me just know I'm not ignoring you, just on the other side of the world. :) I will causally be making posts on here when I can, and my leader said I can use her laptop when I want to talk to people back home. This is my choice to not bring my laptop, because I want my full attention to be on my surroundings, and focus my attention on God, and His goodness.

I also would like to share with you guys what the Lord has been tugging on my heart. As most of yall know. I took this dts because of the Around the World Track- http://www.photogenx.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=104:around-the-world-track-with-photogenx&catid=45:photogenx-training&Itemid=94  and the Lord has brought it to my attention again, that He wants me to do this. At the time I didn't want to, cause I wanted to do something different. But the Lord has given me the desire to pursue this again. So my heart is on fire for this!

 Through out my outreach I will be praying about it and when I come back home I will have already made a decision. So please be praying for me, that I hear the Lord's voice clearly and if God wants me to go, that He will provide the money. If I go on the track, I will leave once again in January 2012 and be gone for a year. I am so excited at what the Lord is going to use me in. I feel at though I have nothing to give, but I have such a heart for the injustice of sex slavery, women and children, that I'm willing to try to do something.

Again thank you all so much for your prayers and support. Don't ever stop praying and don't forget I still need 700 dollars!

I love you all! God bless
