Go Sailing's Outreach Adventures!: Nguna

Our time at Nguna as a team was such an unforgettable experience. We were all stretched in different ways, and united like never before. We began our journey by taking a boat to the island along with our luggage and Bibles. We spent our first two nights at the tiny village of Nekapa on the coast, and began administering Bibles the second day. We split off into pairs and went into all the houses of the village- gifted a Bislama Bible to each family, and prayed for any requests they had. It was an eye-opening experience to envelop ourselves in a completely different culture- sleep on straw mats on the floor, and manage the hot, humid, and rainy weather!

Each day, we would wake up around 6 with the sunrise, eat breakfast, and set out for our Bible distributions. We worked our way through four different villages over the nine days we were out, and were able to take two days off. In each village, we put on a church service and performed our skits, led worship, and took turns sharing testimonies and sermons. Each of us have incredible stories of how God has worked in our lives through conversations, prayers, and experiences on Nguna.

We arrived back at Grace House on the 13^th- a few days earlier than anticipated because it turned out half of the island had already been distributed Bibles to. Yesterday we had debrief, and today we had the opportunity to help serve at the V2 Life YWAM base about 15 minutes drive from Grace House. We worked construction, painted, and helped out with food prep. On Sunday, we will be staying at the V2 base through next Thursday for the last part of our Vanuatu outreach.
