Well this has been a really sweet week..it started off with a little trip to Queenstown. We got to hang out as a team and relax a bit and do some sweet site seeing of this beautiful country. My favorite part was when we went to the ski slopes and slid down the mountain in our trashbags ...There we are with our trash bags (from left to right, Ben, Sean, Sheffey, Megan, Kendall, Sam). The next picture is Sean after we went down the mountain. It was really crazy trying to take pictures and videos, we found ourselves getting really frustrated with our cameras. What we wanted to capture and show everyone wasn't near what we were seeing with our own eyes. Looking at God's creation was overwhelming. I couldn't help but think in wonder and awe of His glory to be revealed.


After we got back from Queenstown we came and started back on campus just hanging out with people and trying to deepen the relationships that we have made. Last night (friday night) we had Wings/Texas Hold'em night and we had a huge turn out. The purpose in our Friday night House party is to invite the people we have met and to bring them into our house and deepen our relationships with them. We want to love on them and show them what our whole team is about. Last night was a success, there were girls that came that we had never met before and we were able to get with them and hang out and we have planned to hang out with them tonight and watch the All Blacks game (the huge NZ rugby game). So be praying that through spending time with these girls that God will open up doors to share Jesus Christ with them.

  1. Yeah girls, enjoy the culture! Make LONG LIFE friends! Thats what I'm talking about!!! Don't worry about trying to find all these opportunities to share at just the right time as if God wasn't working. Don't be blinded by what you think ministry looks like because you see your team to it. Your life should be an out flow of Christ, why because He promises that we are salt to the world (IN HIM), also its who we are. And if Christ isn't an outflow, I would be careful to quickly jumping into "well Im not reading the bible enough, or I need to be more like this, I need to be more confidence." What "more confidence." If, Christ hasn't done a work in you, then that would be true. But if He has, you don't need to be more confidence, you just need to live, cus that who you are through Christ. ITS THE TRUTH, LIVE IN THE REALITY OF IT. PeACE.
