Hey everyone. It is now four weeks and it only feels like I’ve been here for a few days. It is crazy how fast the time has gone by. It also feels like I’ve been here for months because of how close I have gotten with everyone, Especially this past week. There are some amazing people here and I’m so glad that God has brought us all together. Everything has been amazing and has far exceeded my previous expectations of New Zealand and DTS before I had gotten here. I have also been a lot busier than I had though that I was going to be. I had thought that there was going to be more free time but we do a lot of hard work and it seems that the work never ends. My duties that I have to do just about every day is cleaning bathrooms. It is really easy so I don’t mind that I have to do it. I usually have to clean dishes about once a week and that isn’t too bad.
And as a forewarning: in case you don’t see many blog posts it might be because they just put in a new internet system and now we have to pay for the internet that we use ourselves and it costs a lot, but I will try my best to update it as much as I can. Also time really flies here, its all going by so fast that I don’t really get many chances to take some time and write a blog for you. God has been teaching me so much here and I’ve learned so much already. I can’t wait for the rest of this trip and I am so excited that we are going to India. Me and the rest of my DTS are going to India for our outreach and since I’ve heard so much about India and the need for people to go there I am excited that we get to go there.
This past week we went on one of the adventures that are part of the DTS and so we climbed Mount Manaia which is near Whangerei [pronounced fun-ga-ray]. It was a really fantastic view from the top. There are some pictures that I took on the way up and at the top at the end of this post and there are also some pictures of the beach that we went to which was called Ocean Beach. How original, I know. But it was a beautiful beach and I am glad that we were able to go to the beach, even if it was only for a little while. I wish we could’ve spent more time there then we were able to. This week the topic was the Father Heart of God and it has been really interesting. I love our lecture time when we can learn more about God from the amazing speakers that we have like this weeks speaker, Frank Naea. Anyways thats pretty much what has been going on so far. Here are the pictures:
