Familiar Faces...

So another day has passed, and I am having a lot of fun!

Well I'll begin with where I left off after the last blog. A few hours later, Noemi (a friend from German) came by the YWAM house. She had an extra Keith Urban concert ticket, and had invited me to go! So her, and quite a few of her other German friends and I went down there and enjoyed the show! It was a lot of fun. On the way there and back we walked through portage place and I got to see a bit of the area.

The next day, the school began. Everyone was here by one, and registration was at around 4. BUT.. before that, we all went for a walk around the neighborhood to explore a little. There are six students so I'll tell you a bit out each one. Janelle, from Swift current; Jenny, from the highlands of Scotland; Kathryn, from North Carolina; Laura, from Red Deer AB; Jesse, from Calgary AB; and myself. We all get along great so far. Also that day, we did some 'getting to know you' type games, and went for supper at the Ellice Cafe. We are going to be having supper at that Cafe every weekday from now until the end of the DTS (Discipleship Training School).
Today we did more 'getting to know you' stuff, and talked about guidlines. We also went to a place YWAM rents, and has a children's program there. We moved some boxes from there back to the basement of the YWAM house. We played some hacky sac, and just hung out for awhile.

After supper today, Gail, Elwin and Byron came by the YWAM house. Then, they took a few of us out for coffee and desserts at a nearby place. We checked out their condo and got to see a bit more of what's around the neighbourhood. We found a pool! So we might go check that out one of these days.

This week is pretty relaxed -- full of getting to know each other better, and just getting comfortable here. So far, my YWAM DTS is going amazingly. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers!
