Sorry for the delay, we are alive...

Greetings from the land of thin air and moose jerky!  We apologize for the lack of bloggage, but we attempted to do a video update and it didn't want to upload, so let's recap the last few days, shall we?


The weather is phenomenatastic, comparable to a big bowl of tapioca pudding (if you're into that sort of thing).  For fun we've enjoyed many a fun activity, such as swimming, volleyball, Nuke-em (ask your kid), ninja (ask your kid), Wa (pregunta tus hijo), and some card games of various varieties.  Recreation time is also a blast.

As much fun as we've been having...God has been at work ten times more! He has been working in your students lives drastically and it is so cool to watch and be a part of.  We have continued on in Genesis and the sin that continued. Tuesday night we looked at Genesis 6 (the story of the Sons of God and daughters of men). This was the last straw before the Flood. God came in and dealt with the sin again by destroying the earth. However the sin came back...last night we look at the Tower of Babel. So, God came in and dealt with sin every time, but every time sin came back. So is God incompetent? Did God fail? Absolutely not! He was pointing them to the only thing that could save them from their sin. JESUS CHRIST! He is and was the only thing that could save them from their sin. Christ not only took away our sin, but became sin for us ( 2 Corinthians 6:21). It humbles me and breaks me. Christ loves us so incredibly much.

Several students were broken before God last night. It was very cool to see the Spirit moving among them.  I'm sure you are anxious to talk with your child...and several of them are anxious to talk to you about decisions they have made this week!

 Our group last night playing a game together!



Please continue to pray for us!
