After our first week of lectures.

This morning we went wakeboarding at a cable park and had an absolute blast! Kneeboarding was super fun and easy to get the hang of and I did that a few times, so that by the time I got around to wakeboarding my arms were like jello. I almost-sorta got up :P It was fun regardless. Keep your eyes out for Bryan's video.

Last night we headed on down to the surf shop for their trial run of the new coffee shop they added to their store. They also had a sale on all clothing so we had fun trying on hats and such. :) The store is a local ministry focused on reaching the surfing culture here on the coast that was started by some guys who did their DTS a few years ago.

It is super cool because there are several ministries that have emerged from this YWAM base but aren't directly associated with the base. A coffee roasting ministry, the surf shop, the wakeboard park I talked about above and a few others. All of the people involved have a heart for what they are doing along with a heart for the community and for following the Lord. They are great examples of how our everyday life can be a light for Jesus. God promises to bring us life and life abundantly if we are willing and ready to give it all to Him.

This past week has been a whirlwind of new ideas, being challenged and discovering more about how to listen for God's voice. Our teacher this week was Jason Solari. (You can check out his website: http://www.jasonsolari.com/)
His teaching incorporated something for every learning style which I really appreciated.

Tonight we find out where we are going on outreach! Pray that the Lord's will would be done as the leaders are meeting this afternoon to put the teams together. Thankyou all for your support and prayers! They are very appreciated!
Much love,
Moira
