Kaleo this week has been both extremely tiring and hard but in the end rewarding. This week I had one class with Lech Bekesza which when well. I also had the opportunity I go to MEC for some supplies that I needed for India. Then on Thursday the Kaleo guys and I had an amazing overnighter where we all boned very well and grow in our relationships with each other. Finally on Friday I had youth group, which went well we had a games night with the seniors but unfortunately all the seniors decided not to show up. I feel that my church Ladysmith fellowship Baptist needs to start supporting there youth outreach more. Nonetheless it was a good night the kids loved picture nary and enjoyed playing bingo and we closed the evening with an devotion, then on Sunday I helped in the Sunday school. But the best part about this Sunday was that my church Ladysmith fellowship Baptist gave nearly 500 dollars to my mission’s trip. Well I have a lot of homework and must get to it so until next week fer well.

Hi Everyone
Kaleo this week has been stressful and trying. I just finished my Old Testament literature class with Don Taylor and had a lot of fun and learned so much but the class exhausted me and with all the homework for all my other classes I feel over whelmed. I am also very stressed that I want be able to raise enough support for my missions trip because I only have one month left and have sent out over 80 support letters and have only raised 125 dollars. I am in dire need of support but I just don't know where it will come from pleases pray that God will provide for me. Well on the brighter side of things I finally after 4 weeks of missing youth Group made it to one. The youth group and I went and had a meal with several family's in the congregation the family's where nice and welcoming but unfortunately the Kids where a nightmare to deal with and the worst part about it was that I dint even notice. I was so oblivious that I found out that the Kids were being a nightmare by the other youth leaders afterward the night was over. I feel that I am an inadequate leader for the youth group because I miss all of the things the kids are dealing with and the stuff I know they are dealing with I cant relate to because I have never experienced it. I hope next week will be better so until then fer well.
P.S. please pray that the finances I need for my India missions trip come in because I need about 3000 dollars.

Hi everyone
I have decided to make a quote of the week so here it is for this week.
Kaleo is not really a place,
But a state of mind. -Jon Lefebvre
So that said Kaleo this week has been interesting. I spent a great deal of my time and energy doing homework for most of the week but that is all in the past now and is quite boring. So after all of my boring and time consuming homework work I had the privilege of going to missions fest Vancouver although I had to miss youth group for the fourth strait week. But I think Missions fest was worth it I enjoyed the speakers and was challenged deeply by them. I also this week have come to the strangest and probably the most illogical conclusion of my life because for the past five months I have felt I should become a teacher and a missionary. But all the while have decided that I must have been crazy because a those jobs don't offer the salaries that I need to get all the nice stuff I have always wanted and it wasn't until Missions fest that I fully realized that that stuff doesn't really matter and doesn't really fulfill me. So I have come to the conclusion that I will continue to study to become a teacher so I can be a missionary even though that sounds crazy but is there is one thing that I have learned it is that what sounds crazy to us is quite logical to God.
P.S. please pray that the finances I need for my India missions trip come in because I need about 3000 dollars.
