so much to say

I've been slipping on updating my blog. please forgive me.

well i haven't had school for a week and will not have it this week either. i have much to study as i will have a test when we get back and then an exam. yes one right after the other. so ill be studying at the end of this week.

since there hasn't been school, I've been busy with meetings and reading. i sure wish i had more time and that it wouldn't pass by so quickly.

i must say, life has been so incredibly good. i know its because of all your prayer. the lord is faithful! i cant really explain it, but i DO feel comforted, at peace, loved, etc. thank you for praying! it has surely changed this difficult time.

i find myself without words to explain all that I'm thinking and going through this month. I'm still satisfied in the Lord. what does that mean you ask? well, I'm just content with my life. i feel that I'm being used exactly where I'm to be used. I'm doing important work that i can see the product of. i do feel as though I'm getting attached this place.

for Easter i ate one of my girls' house. i was sitting at the kid table....of course...i still haven't graduated from that table....LOL. no jk jk i chose that. they are my life! i love being with them! anyway..so i had asked the kids if they would remember me in two years. and they said yes DEFINITELY. its hard to think that I'm gonna leave them and i wont be able to see what they turn into or who they become.

anyway-there is so much to say. i wish there were some people here to hear what all is happening here.

love on some kids-it will change YOUR life, not just theirs

club last friday!

its been a while. just so you know....

things are going excellently. im still satisfied in the Lord and am amazed by how He is blessing me and the ministry.

of course everything is not perfect, but why dwell on bad things when there are so many great things to reflect on?

we had club on friday! it was SO MUCH FUN!!!! i made taco salad for 20 people. that was funny. most of them didnt know what it was, but they thought it was yummy! one more meal success. thank God because each day we have club more and more people sign up. do you have any ideas for good, fun, easy things to make for 20 people? im running out of ideas and im only one person. who knew this would be part of my job description! hahaha

after dinner i was the one who led the games. we played several things that they either had never played before or that they havent play in quite some time. right after that we sung and then had our message/discussion.

good good times. please continue to pray for the wavre club. it is booming! if it continues to grow we will not be having it at my place. we had over 30 kids!! more importantly that the kids are learning about Christ.

im starting a Bible study next week for kids that are interested in knowing more, exploring their faith, going in and figuring things out. its in conjunction with the youth group (ask me if you dont know what im talking about). this study is different then RPJ, the study i have with rebecca and perrine. that is a discipleship time. this is really just opening the bible with them and figuring things out. I NEED WISDOM and WORD IN FRENCH!! pray for that please :)

ok well i have a lot to get done and we have a leader meeting tonight so i gotta get running.

have a great day!

represent

i dont understand.

here everything is going incredibly well! i cant even tell you. the encounters ive had with new people, the relationships that continue to grow, the ministry that is booming..... Lord, things are great, but what about the funds?


what do i do? i dont know where else to go. i dont want anyone in the U.S. to think that im keeping in touch with them to ask for money. that is definitely not why i keep in touch with ppl. i know that ill be back and that is where my home is, so i need to have people and friends there.


anyway, if you know anyone that has a heart for missions, teenagers, europe, anything..... and that would be my advocate, I NEED ONE!!! represent us, represent what God is doing here in Belgium.


i dont know what else to say.
i just feel like when things are great, something always goes down.
