So I haven't written in a long time . . . and I am sorry for that. There is way too much to talk about so I am just going to start anew. This last week was really busy despite the "freedom" given to us by Mission's Conference. Just because we don’t have regular homework and deadlines does not mean that we have more time to do things than before. I think we actually have less time to do stuff. BUT, Mission's Conference was AMAZING!!!! I honestly don't think I appreciated it enough until it was over. There were three speakers and a few workshop speakers that came. Oliver Meyer from Germany, Percy Huaman from Peru, and Carlos Heron from Brazil. They were wonderful speakers. Pastors Percy and Carlos had to speak through interpreters, so their sermons were much simpler than what we are used to here at Bible College. But that was the blessing of it all. The main theme of the week was "Enlarge My Heart," and they did a phenomenal job of getting that across.
So the weekend was great cause my brother, Mitchel performed for Talents For Christ (TFC) and Hannah, Brandon and I went to watch him play piano. He did really well. There were a few mistakes but no one is perfect. All in all, he and three others got 1's!!! That is a really good rating especially for a first-year contestant. We were so proud of him!
That night we stayed in a hotel here in Ankeny so that my family could come visit my church, Community Baptist Church. I was so excited to be able to share it with them. We went swimming for a little bit and then we watched Tangled. Yup, two days in a row for me. =) The next day my church welcomed them with open arms. I am so thankful for my Community family.
Well. . . that was a summary of my weekend and such. I'm off to study for a Doctrine Survey test. Have a good night y'all.
