Well, Hi everyone I'm Dean and this is my first blog.
I can edit it as I go lol.
One of the best days of my life was when we were told we could come and join the girls in China and they felt it was the Lord's will as well.
This was great because it was a kind of confirmation that we were on the right trail, we also knew we knew what sort of thing we were doing for the rest of our lives and the most important thing, more people are going to be jacked up on Jesus Juice in China. (be saved lol).
For a long time we have been keeping our Spiritual eye out as it were for a Church or a Ministry that believed in the Full Gospel and totally relied on Jesus and fresh revelation rather than a program or formula that seemed a good idea. To our relief we found one that was not all fluff but is the real deal. Jesus lead us to them and them to us, wow he's wonderful.
City Church International is an amazing Church, lead by what Jesus told me was a modern day Paul, Rob Rufus along with his wonderful wife Glenda. They are both so kind and full of Jesus, Rob is one of the best teachers and preachers in the world today, the first Sunday when we arrived at city Church it was amazing to hear Rob in the flesh rather than on download, it was a moving moment for me. When we arrived in January we found out that the Lord had told Rob and Glenda not to travel internationally for 6 monthes starting from January when we arrived, six monthes being the amount of time we felt the Lord had told us to stay in Hong Kong. Not a coincedence.
Moving on to the two girls we will be working with in China, Candice (Cands) and Sonseria (Sons), what a great name, love it. Firstly Cands, well if Rob is a mondern day male Paul then Cands is the female equivalent, she is seriously on fire for Jesus, an awsome leader, an awsome testimony and a real inspiration and a pure Holy Spirit Preacher, trust me we will learn loads from her, love you Cands, then we have Sons, just about the coolest person kathy and I have ever met, she is so cool nothing phases her and you know she can just stand their and say nothing and she still so cool, she is also on fire for Jesus, she is so full of the Holy Spirit it is aw inspiring, she is also higly intelligent to boot, love you Sons. She calls me Bro and I call her Sis, and not until writing this that I really realize they are the sisters I never had.
Going back to City Church, we have made some amazing friends and they are so generous and lovely people, writing this in England now it makes me realize how much we miss them.
Our first ministry weekend in China was amazing, the Chinese people are so lovely and the Pastors we met are so cheeky and naughty, there so much fun. It was everything we thought it would be and more.
I think thats enough for now, will keep you all updated with some more Jesus Juice news.

It's a miracal !!!!!!
It certainly was. Dean was interviewed for a teaching job and got it .
They then had to apply for a working visa. The system for teaching is you need to have a degree, really in anything but a degree...welll???????!!!!!???
Dean doesn't have a degree, he has Buisness Diplomas and Computer studies Diploma's ..GCSE 's and of course his qualification as a Forklift Instructor.We held on to this as it is teaching, but in a diffrent way...
The sponour said we will apply as we want you to work for us, but we don't think you will get the visa..
We waited just over four weeks when we got the news, the sponour, who doesnt know Jesus said "it's a miracal you got the visa... "
What a relief !!!!!on paper we knew in the worlds eyes we would not get it. But if God wanted us in Asia, we would get it and it would open the door of Faith for other Christain couples to believe they would get there's and they did..
The teaching experience? how can I explain what we thought ??? OH yes ..simple...AMAZING TO FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE WALKED INTO A SEASON OF WHAT GOD HAD PLANNED....
I always wanted to be a teacher all those school years ago! But was told I was not clever enough..I really taught, the kids really learn't ..and love love loved doing it.
Dean enjoyed it too, but his was more challenging to say the least, as they were challenging kids. but we loved them.
To make life easier on Dean and the kids I helped him in his classes.. and we Love, love , loved teaching together, as most things in our life it seems we do things best together..!! and thats just God!!!
Later in our time in Hong Kong Dean was asked to do a temp English teaching job p/t on top of our other teaching..
Well one thing with HK and working expect the unexpected :) when he arrived he was filling in as a drama / script wriiter teacher. The fun part was..... the script writting lessons , where Dean would type a demostration script couldn't be used in there next drama class, even though the theme continued, no he had to re-write something new, and he had to do that for his 4-5 classes a day, bless there was not time in the day to do this. he did it for 6 weeks, ( it was suposed to be 2 weeks ) his after school club grew in numbers, and I have to say I was so impressed with his scriptwritting...
My hubby is amazing.. It's lovely we have a working visa now untill next year ..we feel really blessed...
God Bless to you all, will post again soon x xxx
