What I Meant to Say, Before WordPress ATE ME BLOG!

[Kudos to my brother for sending me this copy of my initial blog, before I re-posted with a photo and instead, lost the entire thing. Gracias!]

Hey, um, didn’t I just get here??

Nope, five months down, ten days to go!

And in that time is a kids camp, a goodbye party, packing, saying goodbye, sorting out what stuff I’m going to haul all the way back to Australia and catching some planes, all resulting in getting the heck outta here! But I will be sad to go. Bittersweet. There are some great people I’ve got to know here and some crazy experiences that I never could have predicted would occur in my lifetime, so I’m thankful for the five months that Peru gave me.

In other news, the money for the Kids’ camp came through – sweet – so they are extremely grateful and I heard the word espectacular come out of David’s mouth numerous times… as in, this blessing is spectacular and its going to be used for spectactular things. We tried to say that we don’t use spectacular as a word as much in English, but then I thought, well, why not… This can be a spectacular blessing!

Thanks to the guys that gave, you are a spectacular blessing!!!

If you missed out this time around, you can still give to this ministry… I’m only here for ten more days so get on it Next year the base will filled with DTS students and teams and staff and people coming and going and so both kitchens are going to be FULL… the children’s ministry is looking at getting some of their own kitchen equipment to be prepared for this time, so any money you give now, will go toward that. Some of my money that I had planned to give for the camp (if all the money didn’t come through) is going to go towards that, because I can’t ask people to give if I’m not invested into this as well. And I am.

That doesn’t mean I’m not incredibly freaked out about the camp, though!! 180 kids, heat, four days, spanish ALL the time… AHHHH!!!… *sigh* The joy of the Lord is my strength. THE JOY OF THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH!!!…. keep saying it Kerryn. I know God will pour out His blessings on these kids during this time, and what a privilege to be a part of it, hey. You all wish you were me! Yeah!…. ok.

Peace out dude, more updates to come as I begin my final preparations for the camp and for coming home…

Chau amigos,

Dios te bendiga!
