WEEK 3!!!!!

This week was all about hearing God’s voice and intercession. What a week! On Tuesday we did a water fast where we were only allowed to use water from a few buckets located near the corner of our property, so that means for drinking, washing hands and brushing teeth… and no showers. It was pretty enlightening and an awesome experience, and then followed that up by a 24 hour prayer session (as in all the students and staff each took an hour in the prayer room) on Thursday about the global water crisis. Awesome as.

Yesterday was so crazy, dude. Aside from the 24 hour prayer session we spent our class time in the presence of God. Whoa. Then we all sat in a circle and talked about what our experience was like and what God had spoken to us, if anything and after someone shared we’d surround them in prayer. During this experience, God brought up some terrible memories that I’ve been trying to repress, which made me start crying again (seriously, what the poo.) but when I brought them to him he began to erase the memories from my mind and started healing the pain. I think that was the most exhausting experience of my life.

We’ve also started worship teams this week and my team is going to be leading worship on Tuesday, oh man!! We tried practicing together once but our entire base had a stupid as power outage, so we haven’t really gotten anywhere, and that makes this a bit scarier.

Also, (EXCITING!) our base is in the process of upgrading our internet system where we’re going to be paying by the minute instead of per megabyte! It was supposed to be up this week, but it looks like that didn’t happen; apparently almost all the technology on the base is getting revamped along with that so everything is taking forever. BUT once we get that internet in place, I’ll be able to skype whenever I want!!!!!!! YEAH BUDDY!!!!!

I hope everything is going well wherever you are and I hope to hear from you soon!
