so time is really flying by. i can't even remember what has all happened in the last two weeks. but i'll try. last week we went on a media fast which was super awesome. we weren't allowed music or computers or phones or interweb or anything which was awesome because it just happened to be during the week we had teaching on hearing the voice of God. i definitely was confirmed in hearing God's voice which was super cool so yeah, I'm pumped to say the least. it was such a good week of teaching. soo good haha.
last weekend we went whale watching. pretty much our whole base went, and then some. it was so much fun. you may or may not have seen my ridiculously dirty mustache and the ridiculously dirty pictures that resulted. but it was so so awesome. we had some excellent whale action. aww yea. the night before we had a valentine's day coffee house thing (although it wasn't the 14th) so a bunch of people did talent show performance thingys. 3 other guys and i created a delicious montage of music and choreography, singing parts of doe a deer (sound of music), some beach boys, hard knock life (annie), and favorite things (sound of music). if you haven't seen pictures on facebook.. look at them. it was disgusting. between the 4 of us we used a whole bottle of aftershave and yea. it was soo funny. not gonna lie, we looked good. i mean, really good. kidding.
this last week we had teaching on relationships which is always the one that everyone is excited for yet not at all at the same time because it's so convicting sometimes. but it was good, i definitely learned lots. i'm growing in God a lot lately and really finding myself amazed at all the blessings He's poured down on me throughout these first 21 years. i'm more and more amazed at how good He is everyday it seems. so ya, everything is super good here. i'm getting so excited to leave for outreach, too. i wish i could say where i was going on here but yea, if you don't know yet and would like to, ask my family or my super close friends and they will definitely help you out. it's a security reason, so ya. sorry haha. i really am.
all of the outreach teams from the last school came back yesterday so there's about 45 new people on base for the next week or so. it's crazy hectic now. i'm really excited to hear their stories of what the Lord did wherever they went. i've already heard a couple super awesome ones so yeah, this week will be awesome I'm sure.
we went camping last night up Haleakala (the volcano crater on the island) and then went spearfishing this morning. i didn't kill anything but a couple other guys did. i will though in time. it was so fun though.
so ya, i'm learning lots about God everyday and it's all been very applicable which is really awesome. i'm growing lots and i get more and more excited for what's to come everyday, even though i have no idea what that may be. only the Lord knows, but i'm really learning about walking in faith and growing in it huge amounts so ya! everything is wonderful. i miss all of you guys dearly. i hope that it starts warming up soon over yonder. summer will be awesome. i'm so pumped for it. but ya! let me know if there's anything specific you want to know!
keep the prayers coming in too. they are so so appreciated and definitely very needed. you guys are amazing. i absolutely love all the support i have at home. it's unfathomable. that's a big word for me. so ya, please continue because man, God hears your prayers and is definitely answering them. that's all for now, i will throw something new up in a couple weeks or so! thanks for reading peeps, i love you all so much. God is good!!
