Well guys, the time has finally come to pack up and leave this place.....and go to NEW YORK!!! Yes I am thrilled and excited to head out and experience the things that I will experience (though I do not fully know what those things are yet). Please pray for safety for not just myself, not just my team, but all the kaleo students. The three trips again are New York, India, and Vancouver. We all need prayer for safety, we all need prayer for health, for great experiences, for energy, and for no lice! (theres a story from last years kaleo behind that) I leave monday evening for seattle, hitch a ferry, drive from the ferry to the seattle airport through the night, stop somewhere for food, and be at the airport around 4AM and get on a plane for 6. I'm so excited just for that trip. I love long crazy horrable tiring trips places. Umm, then we get picked up in New York and we are off to Metro Ministries in Brooklyn! I am beyond excited, as I wait for this trip to come. We are the last ones to leave, and the first to come back? I think? I dont remember exactly. But no, that will be the thriller of my next few weeks.

I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane, I know when I'll be back again...
This week......well, we hit Gospels class. It was hard (as expected) yet rewarding. It was kind of like Old Testament in the fact that I learned were a lot was in the Bible, and of course learned about Jesus. I also managed to get a couple devo ideas for summer from it. So that's pretty sweet. I'm really looking forward to using what I have learned throughout this year in the real world, and with my campers. umm...This week was also a wedding of a lovely young lady (a former k5 student) Ellie! I managed to go and see her get married which was sweet, she looked BEAUTIFUL! Here are 2 pictures from it.
(now im writing this the next day) Umm....yeah other than leaving on monday not much is happening that I can really talk about. Oh, but I will tell you aur travel plans so you can pray for us. Monday at 6:30 PM we take a white van and drive to, on, and off of a ferry. From then we drive from the ferry to the boarder(pray that we get across ok with no problems), and across that to the airport (we will be driving there through the night). We will get to the airport around 4 AM and hop on a plane at 6:30 to New York on tuesday. After that, Big Kim will pick us up and we drive to Metro Ministries and hopfully go to bed and sleep. So pray that that trip will go smoothly, that we will get through all US borders, customs, and such well, and that we will have a freaking awesome time as well as have energy and really really REALLY enjoy it. Umm...yeah. Oh and also for safety, we really need it! Other than that, umm not much is new! Hope you are doing well, and that you will not miss my blog for a week....ummmkk I've run out of things to say. Have a great 2 weeks!!!!! God bless!
