Team Hurricane

Hey all!

Thought i would make a little update on what has been going on lately! It has been a crazy busy two and a half weeks. I am finally starting to swing into my schedule, I work all day at a place called Old Time Pottery - which is basically a 3-acre home decor and home goods store. Tonight is my free night of no activities so i thought i would update :).

This past weekend was my D Group weekend! We decided to go somewhere where we didn't have to drive a lot.. so we went to Biloxi, MS! It was a great time of getting to know each other's life stories! We went to the beach, visited a few local restaurants, went to the pier and saw a sting ray, and just bonded. Stephanie also used to live in Biloxi so we relived her childhood with her! We also came up with our group name.. we replaced The 215 to The Hurricane, mainly because we have been obsessed with the song Hurricane by Jimmy Needham and because we were able to still see destruction from Katrina in Biloxi.

So far Kaleo has been more than i expected, i am learning how to be a disciplined Christ follower, learning to read the Bible inductively, and how to share my faith with others.

As far as the oil spill is, it has hit the beach here. However, the tar balls are less than a quarter size and the clean up has been amazing and the beach has actually been open although some days you aren't allowed to swim (for obvious reason).

Until next time, If you would like some things to pray for:

-People from the project who's jobs have been affected by oil spill
-local economy from the oil spill
-that i would be teachable to my leaders and to God throughout the summer
-StuMo's summer India Team, my friend Besty will be there for 6 weeks (they arrived yesterday)

-Liz





you can see the trees still slightly bent from hurricane Katrina.
