it's been awhile...
Life here in Montana is going great, we are busily preparing for outreach, and so excited to see what the Lord has for us in India and Thailand! For dance, we will need to choroagraph two dances and learn one from our leaders, it is exciting to get to work together and seek the Lord on what would best minister/entertain our audience. On base this week we are learning about spiritual warfare, I find the most interesting is statistically how uninvolved the Christian community is. Time has flown by so fast!!! I only have about four more weeks here!!! It is definately bitter sweet, I am going on an amazing mission trip, but it will be hard to say goodbye to some of my fellow DTSers. On that note, if you could keep me in prayer as I seek the Lord on what to do after DTS, I have a couple options. One opportunity that I have is to go spend a couple months in Canada with some friends from YWAM helping to lead an inner-city bible camp in Manatoba! Which sounds exciting, I just want to make sure I'm living in the Lord's will. One other option is to participate in the School of Dance this coming september! So feel free if you have any wisdom to let me know! Also I am still asking God to provide the last $750.00 of tuition. It has been an amazing adventure being here and I have learned so much about myself and the Lord! It has been life altering and there are not words to express how gratefull I am to those of you who are involved! I pray that the Lord blesses you and brings you joy as you freely give of yourself and that you would see the impact you are not only having on my life, but those around you and those I impact! It's an amazing thing to see the love of the Lord spread! I love and miss you all!!

mini outreach!
As most of you know, i went on mini-outreach! tacoma, washington!! woot woot! it was amazing! we arrived on sunday night after a 12 hour drive, and i was able to spend time with callie and kelsey!! it was so refreshing to see my people again! monday our group went to a place called "new beginings" where they help out pregnant women in bad situation and who want to give thier babies up for adoption, we helped clean and organize their house, it was fun. monday night we got invited to a church in sumner and some of us where able to share our testimonies! it was cool, i dont think i have ever spoken in front of that many people before, and had to rely on God to give me words to say. tuesday my group stayed back at the church to help paint, which was a lot of fun! then tuesday night we experienced our first ever street evangelism trip!!! we were really scared! but it was so much fun, we ended up going to an A.A. meeting and we probably left more encouraged by their strength in the Lord than them encouraged by us, but it was a cool experience! somewhere in the middle of all this i got to see cailyn, nathan, and jane!!! it was amazing! then wednesday our group went to a food bank to help them, it was so cool cause you could tell they dont get a lot of volunteers and they are older there and cant work as fast as we could, just because we are younger, so it was fun to bring refreshment to them. that night i got to go to the crossing and see even more friends! it was a fun night! then thursday we went back to the crossing to pray for people and help in any way we could. i love it there! thursday night was amazing! we held a concert at P.L.U. the musicians did their deal and the dancers did ours, and the Lord blew the place up! it was so cool! the best part is that we had no idea what we were doing! i love seeing our team work together! then friday was our freeday! i got to see friends and family! it was the best week so far! i did pray that the passes would close so that i could stay and go to new song, the Lord did answer my prayer, in that the passes were closed however, we just had to take a detour and it took us about 15 hrs instead of 12. it was fun though! it makes me so excited for out-reach in india and thailand! love you all!
