Moving Day!

Tonight (and tomorrowish) I'll be moving in with my friend Abi a couple of apartments down. Housing situations had to get moved around a little, so I'll spend the remainder of my months with her. We both love drinking tea, reading children's books aloud, and knitting (ok, I only know how to a little bit but she seems quite good) and we are going to have a blast I must say. It's Abi Thompson for anyone who remembers her from Northland! She graduated a couple years ago I think. On Saturday night there was some sort of fiesta for tourists, celebrating 40 years of something :) It was so much fun to go and try the different foods at the booths representing the different villages on the island. Coconut candy is amazing, but I think coconut juice might have to grow on me :) Some HBBC (Harvest Baptist Bible College) girls had a surprise birthday party last night for one of the girls named Story, and it was a blast. Abi, Heather (Heather is a 2nd grade teacher who lives in the apartments by me and Abi) and I joined in, and those Micronesian girls sure know how to have fun. They are absolutely a blast to be with, and it is so much fun and a blessing to get to know them better! They're amazing. You should hear the Micronesian group sing on Sunday mornings! They lift the roof and it is the coolest thing to hear them praise our Savior. I got to help out in the nursery in Sunday School, and then with the children on Sunday night (we're having Summit meetings with Harold Vaughan). This coming week of meetings will mean a very busy schedule but a lot of challenges from God's Word. The message tonight was on the lukewarm Laodicean church and was very convicting. I'm excited about the services we're going to have the rest of the week. God is doing a great work here, in my heart and in the hearts around me.
