My time in New Zealand is coming to an end, and I have many mixed feelings about it. I’ve been on two more weekend trips since my last post—one to Cathedral Cove again, and one out to the Napier area—and I’m now on my second ministry week. For this week, I’m up in the Beachlands and Maraetai area near Auckland. We’re doing a kids afterschool program, Bible in Schools, helping with services, community service, and more. Basically we’re showing God’s love to the people around us.
Anyway, back to the subject of going home…I absolutely love it here. I’m learning and learning and growing and growing, and I don’t want it to stop! Not that it has to when I go home, but it won’t be as prevalent. And the people I’ve met here? Wow, I’m going to miss them! Yes, I’m excited to see my family and my friends from home, but it’s definitely bittersweet—especially concerning some people here…
Well, I’ve got about ten thousand pictures to show all of you when I get home! Just kidding. I’ll go through them and only pick out the good ones. :) Home time in two and a half weeks. I can’t believe it’s been five months….
