End of Week 4

Well we've made it through one third of the lecture phase of our Crossroads Discipleship Training School! I'll be honest and say I'm glad this week is over. There were a few valuable nuggets but mostly it seemed a lesson of patience gained from enduring about 16 hours of lecture! I really learn best when I am able to have some interaction in class and this was not the instructor's style. I guess after pastoring for 39 years he thinks it's always his turn to talk, talk, talk and talk some more. Next week, we have different speakers but a challenging topic. It's the week most talked about among YWAMers. We'll fill you in when we have the facts.

The girls went on an outing with their class today. They enjoyed a picnic at a park and the afternoon at a large children's museum. Maybe we will post some pics later. Not sure what was captured since Adriana was the only one taking pictures. I do know if there were any flowers or animals in the area she probably got them on film, but people seem to be elusive to her.

Annalise and her friends, Anna and Abby, enjoyed walking in the cool creek this warm afternoon. Not sure how they all got so wet in water about four inches deep!

We are so excited about what God is going to do in and through our Cornerstone Mission Team. We ask you to join us in praying for them. They leave early tomorrow morning for a week of ministry in Reynosa, Mexico.

Another prayer concern is for a classmate of ours. After waiting for 6 hours in E.R.,Cynthia was admitted. Please pray for her healing and for provision. She does not have any insurance coverage and has already had several tests. The doctors still have not determined the cause of her pain.
