Church Ministry

The plans are slowly coming together as we just got our worship team together to practice for our Sunday night youth service called "the bridge". A couple other Kaleo students and myself will be spending some time this week to plan the evening service from everything from music to prayer to the sermon.

S.A.L.T.S.

Well we are now back from our five day SALTS trip but I still feel like I'm floating on water. Our first day out was amazing, full of waves, wind, and sea sickness. Nothing like being forty feet up in the air on top of the mast as the boat rocks back and forth over waves. After the first day it seems the wind decided it didn't like us and took off, but none the less we still had a good time partying in the rain.

Church Ministry

i have begun to attend a church called Cobble Hill Baptist. A few young people from the church, a couple kaleo students and me are going to be responsible for a Sunday evening youth service. We will be leading everything from worship to prayer to sermons. Please pray for us as we begin to plan things out. We will probably be starting this in the beginning of October.

SALTS

This Monday we are embarking on a new journey, instead of mountains, this time we are conquering the sea. We are leaving on a week long sailing trip which will allow us now to to see God's wonder from a new perspective.

Mount Albert-Edward

We just got back from a three day hike up Mount Albert-Edward in Strathcona park. This hike rendered me breathless, in both my physical condition and also my spiritual condition. This hike was definitely not just a stroll in the park which is awesome because it was great to get to know my peers while they were exhausted, covered in sweat, and reaking to high heaven. No matter how long we had hiked no one really cared because once you got to the top of that mountain you forgot all about the effort it took to get you up there. All we were cared about at 7000 ft is how amazing God is and what an amazing artist he is
