Sunday was the official kick off of the Sept. DTS, and the send off of the July DTS. It was insane again with the holy spirit, whoooo man their commissioning is so much different then anything I’m used to. “holy spirit anoint these children” and BAM shaking, laughing, collapsing, it was exciting. The July DTS is going to do amazing things, wow just amazing.
Monday was our first day of class, but it was more orientation. We did some get to know you games, played soccer, and then split up into groups and played amazing race around town, I got my running in for the day haha I was so tired by the end. We probably ran over 5 miles around. It was sooo much. Our team lost, well we won but we had one person not with us sooo since we were not all there, that’s why we lost.
Today, Tuesday, was more orientation, but a lot more teaching. We all had to come up with a skit, dance or rap. Our group got dance, hmm it was interesting, not really a dance but its ok. This week we are being taught on hearing the voice of God, how to, what it sounds like, all that stuff. The speaker’s name is Daniel, he is our base leader, and will be teaching on and off. He actually is going to Switzerland for a YWAM meeting I guess this weekend, that will be so good for him.
I’m still getting a long with mostly everybody, there are some girls who have annoyed me but I have had to take a step back and tell myself that I have no idea what these girls have been through, whats going on right now, what insecurities they have. I have to keep rreminding myself I’m here to know God more, to be one with him, and to die to my old self and become filled with him. I’m not here to judge others, and get angry. I want to be free of that.
Uhmmm its been 5 days, and I already got a marriage proposal…dead serious. If you want to know more, just face book me hahahaaa, ohh goodness. Hmmm I was a little taken back by it, but it’s the culture here, its normal for people my age to start really seriously dating for marriage. I was speechless, but its all good I talked with some of the girls they helped. I just ahhh 5 days, and already seriously.sheeshhhh
But I hope all is well in MN, or wherever your reading this. I miss everyone!
