Catching up!

Oh no!! It's been too long since I last updated y'all. :( I'm sorry.

The past two weeks have been crazy! I went to London for 3 days with two of my friends so I could renew my passport! We visited OM's Muslim ministry, took a double decker tour and boat down the Thames, saw all the sweeeeeet looking buildings you see in the movies, visited Sherlock Holmes, Buckingham Palace.. the British Museum... It was great! :) We also took the tube and train.. So yes, I am a pro now. ;) The only problem was.. NO RENEWAL. I have to go back later. Oh well! :) Let me know if you want to see some pictures! :)

Let's see.. the latest big things.. Well, on Wednesday I went to my first Engage! class!!! This is one out of six sessions each month that allow me to get my Certificate for Christian Youth in the UK. On top of attending monthly classes I also have a paper to write based on the covered materials and some practical work. I really enjoyed my class and even met some other students which was great! Unfortunately, none live nearby... Please be praying that God opens doors for more youth ministry work. It is limited here, and I would love to have a lot of kids to work with!

Tonight we had another round of Jesus and Hot Chocolate. AWESOMENESS! :) Lots of kids showed up- and they were not crazy rowdy! A young girl from South Africa came with Fay (one of the older youth workers that goes to Wyesham Church) who just moved to Monmouth 2 weeks ago. I had a great time chatting with her and invited her to Links tomorrow night! :) SHE IS COMING!! WOHOOOO! She is 15 and has no friends. I'm hoping that this will be an opportunity to share with her and be a friend. Please pray about Links tomorrow night! I am leading the game and Bible study! I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THE BIBLE STUDY! It will be like camp all over again! :D A few more kids stopped by for hot chocolate and they were pretty open and chatty. I hope they come back next week.

Tomorrow we have a mixed church service with the Norton and Cross Ash area. :)

AAAAND I cleaned up my room. Be proud, mom. ;)

I AM CALLING LAURA TONIGHT! I CAN'T WAIT!!

I will go.

And he said "Come, and follow me
I'm calling you I want you to be
A fisherman to fish for those
Who are drowning in a scowling sea
A sea of lonliness and pain
Confusion, hurt, worry, shame
I'm holding out my hand
And yet they don't hear me call their name

I want you to be the one
To tell them that the Kingdom's come
And give them all the truth and joy
You've been given by the Son

Will you go
Wherever I lead
Be light in the dark
And be salt in the street
Will you go
No matter the cost
Will you live for the lost
So they'll know of the cross
Will you go

I said Oh no, Lord not me
I'm not good enough to go you see
I mean what if they laugh or worse
Start throwing things and I get hurt
Besides that, what would I say
I think there's been a big mistake
Lord, please ask this of someone else
I can't go I'm too afraid

I want you to be the one
To tell them that the Kingdom's come
And give them all the truth and joy
You've been given by the Son

Will you go
Wherever I lead
Be light in the dark
And be salt in the street
Will you go
No matter the cost
Will you live for the lost
So they'll know of the cross
Will you go

He said yes, some will cover their ears
And they will not want to hear
You must stand and say it still
Be brave my child and do not fear
For it is my words you'll speak
And I promise I will keep
You safe and sound within my will
I'm your strength when you're weak

I want you to be the one
To tell then that the Kingdom's come
And give them all the truth and joy
You've been given by the Son

I will go
Wherever You lead
Be light inthe dark
And be salt in the street
I will go
No matter the cost
I will live for the lost
So they'll know of the cross

I will go
Wherever you lead
Be light in the dark
And be salt in the street
I will go
No matter the cost
I will live for the lost
So they'll know of the cross
I will go
