phase II

Hello everyone! 
Yes, i know, it has been a while! 

At the moment i am half-way through my second school in back in Denver. It is called 'Phase II' and it is a leadership school that goes for three months. So far, it has been great. very different to DTS, but so so good! We have had teachings in topics like effective personal ministry, spiritual leadership, worldviews and public speaking. 

My favorite topic was this week's teaching on 'Peace under Pressure' which was a breakdown on the different areas of the christian life that we are tempted to compromise in... It has been very challenging and edifying. 

Other than teachings, we have had numerous projects to work on - two of them have been outreach projects designed to teach us how to lead outreaches and initiate new ministries on the mission field. There is alot of work, but it is all such quality stuff. 

My class has 19 people in my class - again we are a very versatile bunch, which makes for some interesting times of fellowship! 
us girls have bonded well and have done a lot of fun stuff together :) It is fall here right now, so we've had a lot of 'harvest celebrations' - things i've never done before!!


Next week is thanksgiving, and i'm going to spend the day at my friend Whitney's house - apparently i'm going to get the all-american experience! hahaha...
