We have completed our second week of training and it was incredible. We discussed Kingdom Principles, communicating with God and prayer. I love being with such a diverse group of people who are willing to share their hearts as we all strive to grow deeper in our relationships with God.
This evening we went over to a staff member's home for dessert and fellowship. We had delicious brownies and ice cream in front of a warm and inviting fire, along with part of their testimony of God's faithfulness in their lives during their time with Mercy Ships. Thank you Bergstroms! We also got to watch the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games at our friends the Grizzards here at the IOC campus. True to form I fell asleep on the couch near the end of the program which is why I am wide awake right now and doing laundry. Thankfully tomorrow is Saturday so I can sleep in.
Through the generosity of a fellow classmate who has given us her car for the weekend Alice, Jamie and I will venture into Tyler, Texas tomorrow. Looking forward to a little change of scenery and maybe make a few last minute purchases.
Thank you for all of your prayers and know that I am praying for you as well.
Serving With Joy!
