SO LONG...

Ok well i will start by saying i am sorry for taking so long to write on here.....! life has been busy! i can barley find time to call home! Well one week of classes is done and we finished "the character of God" it was three days of classes and worship and it was great! we have done so many crazy things already....i have been to the beach 3 times.....plenty of time to burn/swim/play volleyball/and just have a blast! we have also had many times of worship and fun togerther as a base. today (sat) as a yp school we went to a park an hour away to see some kangaroos and koalas and to just play some games and eat down there.....and YES i burned! and i am loading on the aloevera! the weather has been beautoful...+40 almost everyday! i know you are jealous! i don't want to leave! I have alos got some more details on outreach.......the perth base has started some new things this year for outreach which include, megacities which is based in jakarta indonesia! this is based on each base focusing on a HUGE city and the perth base is sending each outreach team to jakarta for a period of there outreach and theere goal is to have jakarta reached as a city! the other thing is called 97 nations...this is a vision of ywam perth to reach out to all 97 nations in africa. they want to reach everynation in a year, so somewhere in africa could be a option for outreach as well as jakarta. which is exciting!

Random thing....but we got crepes today for supper it was amazing and then we played some volleyball, just reminded me of my moms cooking which by the way i miss very much!

So starting on mon we are starting a new week of classes called forgivness and repentance......i ask for extra prayer through this week...it is going to be very important and hard....and i really want to finally give EVERYthing over to god. so keep me in your prayers. I am meeting so many great ppl here which is amazing so i should head out....we are having a dance party tongith at 228...our home!!! and then its off to work on my journal! luv ya all
