Hey there :)

It has been what seems like ages....alot has happened over this month of Febraury.  Alot of good and also alot of the seemingly not so good.  This is the first month since I have graduated that time is not seeming to just fly by.  It is rather slow and I am not sure what to think of it. Here are some tid-bits (nice word) from my month thus far:

-Well I met the youth pastor at the church that my family has become involved in at Morden Alliance Church at a youth event I decided to go to one weekend that I was there. In talking with him, to make a long story short, I am going to be leading a youth church service every other Sunday evening.  It will consist of about an hour of worship music that is good and loud to appeal to the children and give them something other than the usual that they get at church.  Not that the usual church is bad, but youth need something specifically for themselves once in awhile.  After that hour of worship either me or the youth pastor there will give a 15-20 minute talk and lead back into another 45 minutes or so of worship music.  I had the chance to talk to a few of the kids there that night and I managed to really connect with a few.  This is really encouraging to me and it seems that things are falling into place for me for the idea that I want to be a youth pastor. This will be a great experience and I look forward to it very much.  Prayer would be appreciated for sure as I try to minister to the youth of Morden and I will definitely be learning lots too.

-I had "reading week" last week...minus the reading. I hung out with friends, went home for a few days, and had an incredible last weekend. It was tons of fun cuz I got together with some friends from university down in Morden. We had a blast!  Until about 1:00 on Sunday morning when Tyler was driving Destiny back to her house with my car and had...well we can say a bit of an accident. He hit a parked truck really hard and completely smashed the front of my car.  It is a complete miracle that those two are alive nevermind injury-free. Both of them are alright. Sadly I can't say the same for my poor car. It is definitely totalled so I will be without wheels for an indefinite amount of time.  Definitely until the end of the semester so that kind of messes up going to Church at Pine Ridge and I guess I will be bussing it to work.

-All in all it has been an eventful month full of joy, harships, sadness, and most of all, lessons learned.  I am glad to say it is almost over and life looks like it is slowly getting back to somewhat of a norm. But then again, what is normal anyway..haha. Anyways I should get going cuz I have class earlier than usual tomorrow. Good ol' History :)

God Bless
