SOOOO i am really really sorry that i dont post as often as i would like, but the hours are crazy and im so tired some nights. I'm gonna try to post more for the last week and half im here. We had Hamilton and Highland with us last week. They put on a Vacation Bible School for kids in the area. We did a lot of canvassing and we had a large number of kids. The first night was only about 35 but the second and and third night had 60 and 85 kids. It was wild. It was amazing to have that many kids but they were slightly out of control. Over all they seemed to have loads of fun. We had some issues with a few of them but we got past them. The groups were some interesting groups. Ryan and Barry, the two youth leaders, were absolutely hilarious guys. They had a passion for their work and worked hard to plan this VBS. This past weekend i flew to Virginia for a Wedding. My friends Dan and Lauren got married last Saturday. It was a gorgeous wedding. It was at a farm just south of Roanoke. One of our past campus ministers Seth performed the wedding and it was just great to see him and he did awesome for them on their day. It was good to see everyone and to be honored to share the day with Dan and Lauren. They are such amazing people. Sunday I drove with my friends Julia and Becca to Mobile. They started their internship here yesterday. They are both so excited and i wish i could be here to rest of the summer to work with them but i gotta do what i gotta do and im sure they will have an amazing time.
This week has started off great. We have a group from Scottsboro and Mt. Dora and they are really ready for this. They are doing a Vacation Bible School too but in Birdsville. It went well today with crafts puppet shows games and lessons. We had only about 30 some kids today but as past history has shown we very well could have 60 some tomorrow. This is a much bigger group than last week so hopefully they will be able to help more with controlling the kids a bit. And the way we are setting it up outside we can split the groups up more and so that helps stuff a lot. This group is especially cool for me because there are a couple of college students that go to Harding and Freed in this group so its cool to have people my age again. Their leaders are awesome. Eddie and Chris have been great and they are good good goooooood leaders. This last week is gonna be busy. Im gonna write tomorrow about this cool trip we are taking the kids on in the morning and then of course day two of VBS in birdsville. This last week is gonna have a lot of interesting turns so im really excited. I'll write soon!!!
