YWAM Alumni Christchurch NZ

With Easter weekend just a week away, our Graves to Gardens team is happy to let you know that our 2021 guide and daily practices have been revised and are now available for downloading/printing. Keep an eye out for a new practice we've introduced this year.

Download (and/or print) the guide & daily practices here: https://www.prayercollective.nz/gravestogardens

We received great feedback over the last year and are encouraged to hear that the experience was impactful for many... from diverse locations such as Dublin, Ireland, Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, Juárez, Mexico and Idaho, USA! If you have not yet participated in Graves to Gardens, we'd love for you to consider taking part!

We believe Easter is a pivotal holiday to observe and celebrate with deep intentionality. The G2G Project is a free, contemplative, kinesthetic, low-tech, & relational resource for you and your household/flatmates to engage with together over the whole of Easter weekend. It explores an array of spiritual practices and touches on the topics of hope, disappointment, rest, non-anxious presence, open-handed faith and kingdom purpose.

This self-led Easter experience can be tailored to fit your specific living situation—yes, even with kids! (Tip: We suggest looking through it BEFORE Good Friday so you can prepare what you may need in advance. Check out the handy Guide for more details.)

Our hope is that all participants feel more connected to Christ and to the global family of believers as we dive into the story of Christ's death, burial and resurrection and celebrate the ever-expanding Kingdom of God within and around us. May you experience the resurrection power of Christ in your life today and throughout this season ahead.

We enjoy seeing people around the globe engaging with this resource. Feel free to follow us, link to us or tag us on FB (Graves To Gardens) or instagram ().

Happy Easter from our G2G team!

Happy New Year!! Hope you are all well & having a relaxed week! We wanted to let you know there is a Kona YWAM team in Christchurch through the end of February. They are a second-level counseling school that's keen for connections in the city. They are eager to do some teaching and ministry. If your church/community/small group / or you personally etc. would be interested to know more, please reply and we can talk further. They specifically are ready to either teach at a church, youth group or small groups... and they are also ready to minister to individuals and walk you through an in-depth healing/deliverance/restoration process if there is anything you need ministry about. // If you know of a youth pastor needing a break from speaking, this would also be a great opportunity for them to share and also lead worship. They are equipped for both roles. // They are also apt to help in any other way, ministry wise or practically. Please don't hesitate to get it touch if you or someone you know has a need. They are looking for things to do! // Thanks!!

The Hope Project Our target was $1.2m by the end of July so the team could be released to focus on preparing the media, which is needed if we are to prepare the media in time. Having fallen short of this target we are giving our team a well-deserved break, and have postponed our board meeting, at which a decision…
