Well Folks it's been a great couple of months since I got here in September and I just want to thank you for all the prayers you've given me through out this year ever since I started my facebook group at the start of the summer. This last week has been a very strange week but things are starting to get back into a "normal" measure. I'm not going to get into the detail of it because it's something that we have to work on together as a Kaleo community but I will ask for some prayer for it because it can make or break our community.
Starting a week ago we did our guys overnight trip and we went out to mystic beach for some fun times. So we had some great guy bonding time there. The negative of that was that I chose to fall into a wave instead of into the sand when I lost my footing on one of the logs and got completely drenched. Here's a thought, lets take 13 young adults to a beach in December and give them free reign to do whatever they want to do for a day, fun fun fun, you can just guess what happened.
After exciting times at the beach we returned home for a crazy ending youth group at Warmland. well that's exactly what it was, and now i'm missing about 50-1oo strands of hair because now the boys are pulling my hair as well, oh joy. Still it was a great youth group and I had tons of fun hanging out with the boys in our small group. Before the night started our group prayed and I'm thinking that because of that extra prayer we got more out of our boys and I'm looking forward to the new year and those boys because their walk with God is just starting and I'm excited to see where they are going in the near future.
Then came the talent show. I'm sure if you guys have looked at the Kaleo blog then you would have seen some of the crazy skits we had. My skit consisted of teaching the Kaleo students the art of hugging and how to properly hug another guy or a girl who is just a friend. I did not teach the girlfriend hug because that would be awkward. Anyways this had been a great week and although Kaleo is awesome I am looking forward to going home and seeing everyone while I'm there.
