Halfway house

I can't believe we're in week 7, over halfway through the lecture phase already! Time is flying and going very slowly at the same time, is that even possible?? We had another team join us for spiritual warfare week from a base in the jungle on mainland Belize and it was awesome to be able to bond with them and hear their stories. It's crazy just how close you can get to people in a week, I felt like I was saying goodbye to my brothers and sisters when they left :( The week after that we had teaching on relationships, from the assistant director of the Denver YWAM base. It was awesome to be able to hear his testimony of how his relationship with God and his wife have helped him come through a crazy number of struggles in his life.

On another note my outreach team is expanding. We now have 5 of us on the team (up from 3) and it has been exciting to see how God has built up that team. But I can't wait to learn more about what we will be doing as right now we have the location and that is pretty much it... it is definitely a test of trust and patience (especially patience on my part). Our outreach leader should be arriving back to base soon (he was on outreach elsewhere) so it will be nice to be able to meet the final member of our team :)

This week has been rest week, which I am so glad to have. Dts is such an emotional experience, I think someone compared it to heart surgery, which I would say is pretty apt!!! So it has been so nice to be able to hang out and develop friendships further and just generally be in fellowship with each other. Our volleyball skills in particular have got a significantly better!
