So I'm going West! I leave Saturday morning at 7 am and will be back the following Saturday in the afternoon. I'm travelling with the Uniting Church of Cleveland to the bush country to put on a VBS-type program with a partner church they have out there.So I'll be roughing it for a week - sleeping on floors, being in the colder weather without heaters in the buildings, etc. Polly is going to a different camp, so we'll both be on our own and not knowing anyone, so that's a prayer request for the week.
There's a month left to my trip, and I'll just ask that you continue being diligent in your prayers. I'm so looking forward to being away for a week because I know that it'll be a good and different experience plus, but I'm hoping that it'll also be a little bit of a refresher so that I can come back with a renewed sense of purpose for the last three weeks here at CBC.
This last week has been kind of slow since the school is out on holidays. Our host family took Polly and I to the zoo on Tuesday and then to the city for dinner that night. On Wednesday we went to an amusement park with the Heinrichs (minus Doug and Ben) along with some other people from the church. Thursday I finished up the lesson I'm giving tonight at the lockdown...please give a quick prayer for the lesson, it may be a little heavy but I think that is very important and is something God has been laying on my heart. Last night we saw Transformers with some of the young adults from the church (the movie lasted way too long and did not keep me very entertained, though the special effects and computer stuff was pretty cool).
I'll update when I get back and will post pictures soon!
