Get the Voice for the Voiceless 30 day prayer booklet!
One of our the Ministries here in YWAM Kona is PhotoGenX. It is challenging and serving the Church to be involved in issues of injustice around the world. This 30 day ‘Voice for the Voiceless’ prayer booklet is one of the tools they use and there are many more at www.photogenX.net
The Voice for the Voiceless booklet is a tool that will enable you to begin engaging in helping solve this colossal challenge that the world faces in the 21st century. Our goal is to mobilize 100,000 people to pray for 5 minutes each day for 30 days for these issues.
If successful we will have raised 28.5 years worth of prayer! In addition this book will enable you to hit the streets and become a voice for the voiceless. 30 Days of Prayer for the Voiceless is a booklet that will introduce you to 30 global gender injustice issues (e.g. Trafficking, FGM and Enforced Prostitution), with images selected from travels all around the world.

Dinner with a Princess…
Island Breeze welcome.
Recently we here in Kona had the priveledge of hosting the Princess of Tonga who had come to a seminar here. The evening of her arrival was a welcome dinner complete with full Hawaiian Protocol and a response from the Tongan delegation. It was spectacular to be a part of.
Just when we thought we’d go hide at one of the back tables, one of her staff came and directed us both to go sit and eat with the princess! We weren’t expecting to be eating our Monday night dinner with a real life Princess.
She is a woman who so wants to see her country come into it’s destiny in a physical sense but also spiritually. She heads up the national intercessors network and is an incredibly strong yet gracious woman – with a great sense of humor i might add.
We were struck again by how privileged and blessed we are to have the opportunities we have here in Kona to meet all sorts of people from all walks of life from around the world.
We look forward to seeing how we can continue to effect and disciple the nations. We want to see the word of God go out from here with thousands of young people who passionately love the LORD.
We thank the Lord and we look forward to many opportunities to speak to the leaders of nations.
The Dutton’s are moving….. again
Our dining and 'kitchen' (no oven etc)
Yep, it’s true. For the 7th time in 2 years we are moving again! We have been so blessed these past few months by staying in a friends huge, stunning, comfortable home. Now for some strange reason they want it back! Our plan is to move back onto the campus to the room we were in before.
We would be so grateful for your prayer in this issue – we have been incredibly blessed by always having somewhere to live but we so desire to be able to settle somewhere longer term and put down some ‘root’s’. We’ll be moving this weekend the 5th and will get to decorate our place for Christmas… yay!

Faith Teaches in DTS
Faith and the Kids
Faith taught a week or so ago in the Compassion DTS here in Kona on the topic of Relationships with the opposite sex. It’s amazing how interested a group of young men and women can look at the mention of that one, simple word.
It was such an amazing time and what a phenominal group they were. As soon as i walked in it was like they were on the edge of their seats with anticipation of what the Holy Spirit (not me) wanted to say to them. I was reminded again of the privilege of inputting and encouraging young people who are hungry for God and His way’s, to be a part of their journey into freedom, wholeness and partnering with Him for the rest of their lives.
Also we wanted to let you know that i’d be keen to record a week of this teaching if people are interested. I’ve had a number of requests so will try to make it happen sometime soon. Let us know if that interests you. Remember Andrew and I are alway’s available to come speak at churches, camps, conferences – anything where you want challenge and encouragement brought! Faith will challenge, Andrew will encourage:)
September Qrt in Kona
We are in our largest quarter of the year here on the Kona Campus so it comes with large numbers and lot’s of life and color. We have many staff and students here right now as well as teams out in China, Afghanistan, New Zealand, Thailand and South Africa. To be apart of training and equipping people for the great commission is such a privilege and joy when you see over 40 different nationalities learning together from one another. Hundreds of young people will be heading out again in December to take the message of the Love of Jesus to literally thousands of people all around the world. What a great job!
Faith joins Leadership Team
Faith Joins Kona Council
Recently Faith was asked to be apart of the Kona Leadership Team – The Kona Council. It’s a team of around 25 people who oversee and elder ministry life here at YWAM Kona. Andrew has been on this team for the past year so it is a wonderful privilege and responsibility that we have been given as a family to be apart of the team together. We have our yearly council retreat in early November, please be praying for us.
