Amazing week with these kids from Alex City. Miss em' already. They did a CRAZY amount of work and basically remodeled a church on the Westbank. So proud of these kids. Take a look at the pics from this past week...
I. Am. Exhausted.
I think i got about...8 hours of sleep since they arrived on Sunday. This past week has been totally worth the preparation and lack of sleep. THANK YOU JESUS for making this week go so smoothly. No major problems. No major complaints. No injuries. Only spiritual growth, planting seeds and building relationships.
I gave the kids an evaluation form to fill out on how they think this week went and what was the best part. A majority of them put that their favorite part(s) were iTuesday and the devotionals that we had in the morning. One kid wrote down that he rededicated his life to Christ this week! Please pray for these kids. Pray that the seeds that were planted in their life this week would grow and bear much fruit, giving glory to God.
They even started talking about linking up iTuesday via the internet so that they could be with us every Tuesday night as we meet. How awesome would that be?
Here is the link to a video that i made for them to take home to their church:

Immediately following their departure...work. work. work.
Today i was BLESSED to have work. I photographed a financial conference at the Sheraton Hotel. I was able to plant seeds today while talking to someone who was at the conference. Awesome conversation about following Christ 100% and living for what really matters.
Tomorrow i will be photographing a wedding that i was contracted for about 8 months ago. They paid me for this wedding last year, so i won't be making any money. But the fact that i was paid and able to use that money when i went to India last year is Awesome. Blessed.
Sunday morning i will be preaching on the westbank where the kids worked on a church. Very excited/honored to be saying i will be leading worship and preaching this Sunday morning.
After that...i think i will take a nap.
Please pray with me about my financial situation regarding my trip to Cambodia this summer. I pray that it works out if it is God's plan for me. i have not had any time to write letters/ask for support. I guess i will just have to rely on God for complete support. Thats a good thing.
=)
They are already talking about coming back. Can't wait for that.
