Christmas is the season to SMILE :)


This week was a crazy busy week with our course that we had. It was called Church Ministry and it was with David Lee. He was a really nice teacher and had some awesome stories to share while relating to what he was teaching throughout the week.
Also this week a bunch of us went to the ladysmith lights festival and it was gorgeous! They had a whole bunch of decorations put up and there were tons of people! They had a parade through the streets and afterwards there were fireworks!

 It was so sweet and they had christmas music along with them.
 It was so AMAZING and made me smile lots seeing all
 the fireworks and hearing all the christmas music and watching these beautiful fireworks! :)

CHurch is going goood! This week was fun with the youth group. We talked about God and about his salvation. What salvation is and what it means. My girls had a few questions but still found it hard grasping that God died for everyones sins in the world. We had a fun game afterwards out in the park. A whole bunch of leaders hide in the playground and i had a flash light and the kids would have to come running up to the playground finding a leader with a bucket of ribbons and get one to bring back to another leader without getting tagged. I would have to shine the flashlight on the kids to get them out if i saw them and they would have to go start from the beggining again. It was fun and got most people out and running around. 

On a side note i come home very shortly! Eeeek It's a bitte
sweet feeling. I'm excited to see everyone and visit but also sad to leave everyone here for a bit. I have a list of things to accomplish and people to see when i get home! Wooo hooo! see y'all very very sooon in good ol st.kitzs!

Prayer Requests:
*for me to be directed on the path as to where i should be next september! It is fast approaching 
*to trust God in situations i'm facing right now
*to concentrate on the last few papers i have to write before i come home

Thanks,
Love Alivia :)
