Hello all I am still not believing that I have been in San Diego for 3 weeks now and I only have 48 days left here. I am finally plugging into the ministry that New Hope is doing. I have been at the church until 8 and 7 in the evening respectively the past two nights but I have loved every minute of it. Today marked the start of a seven week discipleship course with three of my students here in San Diego. I am taking them through the Seven Checkpoints by Andy Stanley, my goal in this is to prepare them to be better leaders in the student ministry at New Hope when the fall rolls around.
Also as I talked to Mom and Dad today they were telling me about how there was an amazing outpouring of support for a fallen solider in my hometown this evening. This has had me thinking how grateful I am to those who serve our country and that it is because of them that I have the freedom to even be on this trip. So thank you SSG Beale for your sacrifice and also to the rest of our Armed Forces who are serving and have served. I have personally had the honor to know men who have served and are currently serving (Pray for you everyday Kevin!!). This trip has made me realize how lucky I am to have the freedom to be here but also how much God loves us to sacrifice his son for us and that he thinks enough of us to serve him. I am humbled everyday here in San Diego!!
