A Journey to remember

 Leaving home was never too easy however God's blessings comes in different forms. Opportunities always comes with blessings and along the way there will be obstacles, these obstacles tests my faith on whether  I am a firm believer of our Lord Jesus Christ or a sinner whom will never allow Jesus Christ in her life.


A goodbye to Parents, families and friends was hard whilst strengthened me to serve God's calling believing he's always there to provide.


What an amazing God we serve!


From Samoa to Fiji was a God's call within another call consequently a priority was set straight and had to focus. Arriving in Fiji confused me in ways and as always, everything was set accordingly to his plan.


 Thankfully the support system i received provided me  comfort and care as they were my own blood. On another note, Fiji's surrounding and green scenery overwhelmed  and gave me the thought of an enjoyable 6 months ahead with my brothers and sisters in Christ.


Looking forward to what God has installed for me. 


Faafetai.

Critical Reflection on reading Genesis 12 from Contesting Context.

  A   A critical reflection on reading and doing church from contest context (Reading Genesis Chapter 12 : 20)   Genesis 12 – 1 :6 In this reading, God gave instruction to Abram to leave everything behind and go to Canaan where he will make great nation, make his name great and be a blessing. However, Abram did not obey, he took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, all his possessions and people they had acquired from Haran. He arrived in Canaan and traveled through the land to find out that there are Canaanites living on this land. God also appeared on this land and said “To your offspring, I will give this land”. From Chapter 11, Sarai is said to be childless or barren, how can God give him such blessing knowing that Abram’s wife cannot conceive, a loophole in the text.   Reference to context : We believe that missionaries arrived on our lands because our ancestors believed that it is a fulfillment to a prophecy by a fearless Goddess (Nafanua). Christian God was introduced and our

2023 CWM Youth Consultation on Ecology and Economy in the Pacific

 Tuvalu's very existence hangs in the balance as rising sea levels threaten to erase it from the world map. In the coming years, we will delve into the multifaceted challenges that Tuvalu confronts as a result of climate change. Throughout our one week spent in Tuvalu for this consultation, I have learned and examined the impacts of climate injustices on Tuvalu's environment, economy, and cultural heritage and explored the efforts of Tuvaluans to adapt and advocate for international action.  The consequences of rising sea levels extend far beyond the loss of land as experienced. The Tuvaluans, just like any other Pacific Island Nation are heavily dependent on their environment for their livelihoods, with fishing and agriculture being primary sources of income. However, Tuvalu is on the frontline of the climate crisis, facing a multitude of challenges ranging from existential threats to physical existence to disruptions in its economy, environment, and, culture. These effects hi
