Tuesday and going well

I'd love to be able to write so much going on but just little bit in between class.
Things have been crazy, but all feeling good and getting better. Wanted to announce my first commited member of my campaign team. YES Cristian from Argentina who came to work with the World Cup team here in our base, he's really felt his heart and this mission so so important and ready to work hard. He told me about how the more he feels about this message and how much people don't want to hear it about abstinence, but NEED it, the challenge is what he loves. SO thank the Lord!
My birthday was incredible thank you thank you! I had a great morning walk, then went to Empire Cafe with about 12 of my friends from here, and enjoyed the time. I came back to base to check my emails then my friend Nik, from TUG ministries happened to pop by with flowers. He said you can't stay here let's go to a concert in the Botanical Gardens in Kirstenbosch. SO off we went.
I had the best time listening to this Johnny Cooper Band and telling him all about my dreams and need to do this campaign. Nik is a business Christian and said he has endless people to have me meet. Perhaps even sponsors, which is where I'm going to tonight. A dinner with one of his business partners who wants to invest this year in a ministry. God please be with me.
Night ended so lovely in this beautiful setting on the lawn, wish I had my camera! I'l be back. Met some of his lovely friends from local churches and look forward to more with them!
I finished the night eating amazing ginger, carrot, organe muffins my friends helped me make and they said LOVELY words about me and sang, and we had a blast. THen i finished the day of with talking to my parents. OH how lovely thank you all!
Now I have big plans. Nik even offered to possibly live in his house for the next month while he's gone and drive his car, (pray I learn to drive an automatic) AND he's blessed me with a phone for while. GOd is so good. So things are moving!
I gotta get back, but that's a start. THe birthday wishes were endless and so much felt, my heart was on fire and still is!

This time I’ve followed my heart to South Africa to be a servant for the Lord. In whatever magical way that may be, I will do so with the wonderful program, Youth With A Mission.
Ever since I did a mission trip to Mississippi back in 07’ I’ve been inspired to continue to serve. I've been dreaming about an adventure as well as being at the 2010 World Cup.
With the support of YWAM I will be embracing the country by first going through YWAM’s DTS, (Discipleship Training School). DTS is a pre-requisite to being a missionary through WYAM when completed.
The first 3 months are going to be at the base in Muizenberg. There my ‘team’ who have applied for the school around the world, challenging ourselves to be fully ready to serve in whatever calling we gravitate towards.
Choosing a country from the options YWAM provides, our team will then go serve there for the last 3 months. At the end of our mission, we debrief back in Muizenberg.
With the largest sporting event in the world going on in SA, I can just feel that it’s a place God will do wondrous things. With the beautiful game I know many youth especially youth, can be reached with endless opportunities.
I’ve traveled, met many people, gained work ethic, responsibility, confidence, and how to be a part of something larger than myself from soccer. Now I feel if there’s anyway I can give this gift in a place in such a time as this, then that would be a dream for me!
Not only do I hope and plan that YWAM will plug me into ties with the World Cup but also be able to help me network enough to help anyone else who may be thinking of attending the World Cup and or serving during the event.
I thank you from the very bottom of my heart for thoughts, prayers and financial support to help make a change.

Be sure to put a note that it’s for Noel Cameron

For the remaining 3 months, I still need to raise funds of around R12,000. I calculated my rent/utilities R1,500, food R1,200, internet/phone, R400, and extras (train travel, toiletries, hair cut, etc.) R1000. So about R4,000 a month with 3 months of May, June and July left I need around R12,000. This equates to around $1,700 for 3 months longer here in South Africa. God always supplies and never fails so I must have faith. I could possibly live on more or less so I am trying to not stress about this. Please keep me in your prayers. There are also so many other YWAMers around me who struggle for schools, accommodation, even a day’s train ticket. Please keep them in your prayers to continue in the steps God has called them.
