Summer Wrapup-->last week of summer placement!
the last week of summer placement, has been good! it has been a little slow, but over all it has been good!
we did another out reach in Kings sqare, and for me it was the one i have felt the most comfortable doing! I did some facepainting again! (there was a day care group there so they all swarmed me after it was anounced that there was free facepainting) and i kinda got intemadated cause there wasn't alot of things i knew how do do, sence i am just learning, and one of the day care workers can do alot with face painting! :S but all in all the face painting went good! And I was actually able to hand out tracts, without feeling like i was tiny tiny, or without wanting to hide! And our lemonaid went over well, well that is until something poped off rocek man and there was a largew fountian of lemonaid flying out, which was entertaining! we had the chance to do two drama's which was good! i realised that day how much i related to my charecter in the heart, and i was going to say something, like a testamony, but i never! :P
Then we went to Renues which was acording to the chaplin there the best service he has seen from Taylor College sence they have been comming to help! So that was god, and encouraging to hear! being at the prision was intresting for me! I was not at al nurvous, and i was excited to go back, and i enjoyed getting to talk to the prisoners afterwards! we had alot of extra time so kevin took us on a little tour of some of the different areas and i got to learn a little more about the prision system which was good! part of me still wants to work in the prison system, ministering to them, but that is something i will have to surender to God, cause if it is not HIS will for my life then i ultamently don't want it!
We also did a BBQ at Highmedow appartments, which went well! It went from four to six, and by five we had a bunch of people! :D it was great! it wazsn't just kids we had but adults came out as well! :D it was nice to start to build relationships in that area and for the parents to have some time talking and catching up or getting to know each other!
Finally we ended with the BBQ at Stone yesterday which was great! I loved it! it was great to see everyone, catch up with everyone and then just to help out in anyway, as well as doing some more facepainting and all of out skits! i hope i can keep up the relationships I have built there over the summer!
OVER ALL, the summer was great! i GREW alot, and learned alot! I did things i never thought I would do, and i enjoyed them! it got me thinking alot about the end of next year! But knowing what I have to do is to leave my hopes my dreams and desires in the hands of Jesus, surender everthing to him, and he will show me!
