Off to Czech

Ahoy. Not real sure if that is how it is spelled, but that means hello in Czech. I am headed off today to the Czech Republic to do a service project there with our middle schoolers.  We are going to a mother child center and working there, playing games with people, doing some English speaking activities, etc. It should be a lot of fun. Prayers for safe travels (not too far away, about a 4 hour van ride) and a good weekend all around are much appreciated. I will make sure to let you know how it goes.

The highlight of the last few weeks for me has been high school club.  We are doing a series dealing w/ many aspects of sexuality.  This last tuesday we spliy up guys and girls, and the leaders swapped, with the male leaders going with female students and female leaders going with male students.  The students then got the chance to ask questions (that they had come up w/ and cleared through their own leaders) that they were curious about with the oppsite gender.  I am extremely pleased with how well it went.  The questions that were asked were great. Opened up a lot of good discussion time.  They listened attentitively, and the leaders gave some really good answers.  It was my favorite club of the year so far.  I really enjoyed it and think it was very beneficial. I think it is so important to be able to go to adults of the opposite gender and ask questions like this, and to have people who love God and are strong in their faith to give open and honest answers.

Sorry, this is all I have time for.  Off to pick up the vans and start loading stuff up.
