No Sleep!!

Well its been a fun weekend.. spent alot of time hanging out with different parts of the youth and it has been a blast. Over the weekend the other interns and I spent time preparing an all nighter party that went from friday to saturday.. and I got about 2 hours sleep the whole time.. fun.. but totally not fun. any way. It was a great night of just hanging out and having some fun with some of the teens and getting a chance to just chat and play some games and talk about God. Its been heaps of fun and I was kinda sad to see the night end. But its ok because I'm looking to the future in hopes that the night has opened up doors for me to crawl through to really get to know and understand these kids lives. On sunday we got a chance to go to church where I did sunday school again and got to hang out with some of the younger kids. And at night we had a great small group meeting for the older kids where we sat and watched a sermon on dvd. I'm having heaps of fun and am sad that it may already be half over.. talk to you all soon. God Bless!!

Fire!!

Hey all, yesterday I went to see where the fires were.. it was one of the worst things I've ever seen. It was just a bunch of burnt trees and you would look one way and you would see a house and you would look right and it was just a heap of rubbish. It was amazing and horrible all at once. It was a life changing experience. Also on monday I got to go with my host family to the football game and celebrate the Queens birthday. It was an alright game even tho my team wasn't playing.  Also over the weekend I got to hang out and have some fun with a bunch of people. Well thats it for now.. I'll talk to you soon!!
