What's Up

As I sit here writing this after a relaxing day here in El Salvador, I still can't believe that at this time tomorrow I will be back at my parent's house in Minnesota. This comes with both excitment and sadness...it's for sure a yay and yuck duck situation. I am so excited to see my family and friends, especially my nieces an my nephew, but at the same time I don't want to leave ES, I truly feel that I am finally feeling really at home here. I love that I have the opportunity to share Christ with the children up in Guayabo. The children in Guayabo are becoming like my little brothers and sisters and I just love them so much and pray that they would come to know the Lord.

I will be back in the States from Nov. 5th to Nov. 15th. I will be spending most of my time up in MN with my family but I am also planning a trip down to Ames to see my friends there. I do have to say that God totally provided and blessed when I went to purchase my plane ticket for this trip, normally the prices for flights from ES to MN are usually the same but the day that I went to buy my plane ticket, the ticket was almost $200 dollars cheaper than normal! PTL. The biggest thing that I will be making sure I get done while I am in the States is get everything that I need for my background check all settled and good to go, so prayers would be appreciated.

Things up at the communtiy center are going great! We finally were able to go back up to the center this past week, thank you for your prayers...it finally stopped raining and November marks the beginning of summer for them so we most likely won't have any more mega rain storms. I know I have said this before but I love what I do I love that I get to love and serve these children. I've been working a lot with the children in helping tutor them in Math. I actually kind of find it funny how God has used that subject because in school that was my least favorite subject but it has been a true blessing. This past week I had the opportunity to go and visit some of the homes of a couple of the children at the center.. It is for sure a reality check and reminds you of how blessed I am with all that the Lord has given me.

Here are some pictures from the past week! I am heading to bed here because I'm getting up early tomorrow because we are having a evanglistic concert tomorrow at church, it is going to be awesome!!! Thank you so much for your prayers and support and I can't wait to see some of you soon!
