I want to thank all you guys for keeping me in your prayers. I have been learning so much and been touched so much in my life here and I know your prayer are helping so much. It really means more than you could possibly know that you guys are supporting me to be here and praying for me. Friendship truly is a great gift from God.
So we only have 3 weeks left in the classroom and then it's Christmas! I'm really excited because one of my friends lives here in Jamaica so she's taking the 4 of us girls who aren't flying home for the break to here house in Ocho Rios, then we're going to travel around the island for a while. I'll post pictures of us on the beach wearing santa hats =). It will be my first Christmas away from my family so just keep us in your prayers that we can still enjoy the holidays.
We prayed about our outreach group and in my group there is one other girl and two boys as students and then we have two young couples for leaders. Our group is going to go to Kingston for 3 weeks. Kingston has some very rough places so just pray for protection as we go there. Then we fly out to Kingston to a little island called St Vincent were we will stay for a week and a half and then go to an even smaller island (3miles by 1 mile) called Myro and stay there for a week and a half. God's leading us to just have fun with the children and people there and love on them. We will also be doing a lot of worship there. One of the couples who arwe going with us are starting a YWAM base on Myro so we are helping them pioneer! It's really exciting but please pray for doors to be opened for us and them there and they really need a well and God's told them there will be one there so we are trusting Him. Please pray that He will show us the water source and for patience in the process and that it will go smoothly.
Man you guys following God is so cool I mean I'm in Jamaica and get to travel to all these Islands just to love people. I mean love is the greatest thing ever and we get to share The Greatest Love ever know with people from everywhere. God is so not boring =). No matter if your traveling the world or at home, He wants to bring so much joy and excitement to our lives. He's the author of adventure. Be patient and listen and be in the moment. Look at the people God has put in your life, talk to them, see the trees you walk by everyday, look at them. There are so many cool things in life but were so caught up chasing adventure or dreaming up adventures that we miss excitement when it happen. It's not hollywood friends, no it's much greater, is life, our lives, what greater adventure is there? Don't miss it.
