September 23

Howdy. It's thursday, meaning it's time for an update. This week has been a good one, very busy, but good. Thursday is my day off, so it sort of symbolizes the end of the week. Tuesdays are high school club and wednesdays are middle school club, which are a lot of fun, but also take a lot out of me, so having Thursday off is a nice way to recharge the batteries.

I have been extremely pleased with how club has gone so far. Club is similar to a youth group at church in the states. We open up with dinner for high school, then some games, mixers, get to know you's, etc. We follow that up w/ a message, and then some small group time to discuss the talk. That is a very simple explanation of what it is, and a lot more goes into it than that, but in a nut shell that's what club is. I was a little nervous about the clubs heading over here, there is a lot of planning that goes into it, and it is very exhausting. But I have ansolutely loved them. It has been a great way to get to know the teens better. I will post some pics from the different clubs later on.

I am starting to get a little settled. This week I passed my written drivers test that you have to take in order to drive here, I got a mailing address, a phone, a bank account, and I have looked at a few different cars. I hope to have purchased one by early next week. I am still searching for a permanent place to stay, and I would appreciate prayers that I find a decent place that is affordable.

Ok, I want to make sure I am writing about something you want to know about, so give a suggestion or topic you want to know about, and I promise to write a post about it.
