well...

Um...I have no excuse for not posting. I fully except all the charges against me.

Tomorrow I leave for the Dominican Republic for 10 days! I will be staying at a YoungLife camp there called Pico Escondido which in Spanish means Hidden Peak; which is fittng seeing as it is on a mountain. I am going there with my church youth group. A lot of my friends are going as well so I am really excited to have this expirirence with them. The work that I will be doing is mainly going to be around the camp getting ready for when the Dominican kids come. For some this is the first time they will hear about Christ

What I am really the most nervous for is the homestay part of the trip. We will be split up into groups of 2 or 3 and we will spend 2 nights with a famliy of a Dominican Younglife camp leader. I have been told that some times it ends up that the only Christian in the family is the kid so I am a little worried as to what it will be like. I have three years of Spanish under my belt but I really have not used it that much.

One of the days we will be hiking to a waterfall that is behind the camp, and on the last full day in the DR we will head to a resort to relax. I am sooooo excited. I have very been out of the country( not inculding Canada). I hope to learn a lot and grow in my spiritual walk with God. I love you all and God Bless.
