DTS, day 46!

I'm so sorry I haven't had the chance to post more in the last couple of  weeks.
 Life here has been crazy :-) 

Mark Parker's week finished out intensely with a 12 hour tabernacle day on Friday. We went to the class room at 9 am and finished at 10pm, with about an hours break for meals in the middle. It was such a great day, but very emotionally (and physically) exhausting. We did SO much worship, and a lot of other stuff. It was a very family building day for the DTS. 

This last week's lectures were on Biblical Worldview and the 8 Spheres of Society, taught by Leah Broomfield. It was really good - very calm after last weeks teaching. We went through each sphere individually, and looked through the Bible (mostly the Torah) and looked at what God's perspective/view of that sphere is... I don't know if that makes sense how I wrote it, but it was really cool.

On Friday night for local outreach, we went to Brighton with sidewalk chalk! We drew a huge square on the sidewalk under a street lamp, and wrote "Prayer Floor" in big letters across the top. As people walked past, we asked them to draw or write their prayers or dreams, and we would pray for them. It was so much fun! Brighton is a very good place for it as well, because I can imagine it would be hard to get many people to join in in a less... free... city. I love Brighton. 

We had our first outreach team meetings last week! It was so fun. We have a really crazy team - I think this outreach is going to be awesome. There are 13 or 14 of us. Eeh! So excited. 

I've been sick for about a week now, and It just keeps fluctuating between okay and awful. Ah well, life is still good. 

Oh yes! The weather here has been AMAZING for the past few days!! It has been perfect spring weather. Sun, but not too much - and the birds are singing, and the grass is green... we have been eating outside and climbing trees. They have the most perfect climbing tree here - it is fantastically wonderful.

This week the September DTS arrived back from their outreaches in Morocco, Moldova, Bermuda and India. This coming week will be their debrief week, and then they graduate next Friday. It's weird having loads of people in the house. Some of the India girls brought back henna with them, and were sweet enough to try it out on us :-) Love. 

Wow, we are leaving for outreach in 5 weeks now. I can't believe how quickly it's coming! 

Still praying for outreach fees as well, but God will provide, so I'm not particularly worried :-)

How is everyone? I haven't heard from anyone in a long time! You still alive?
