It's been absolutely pouring in most of New Zealand this last week, apparently the worst in years, good for the hills though, I guess about 4 feet or something wonderful like that! This week was very very slow for the grounds keeping- it was a week of Saturdays, which may sound appealing at first but really, not at all. I ended up skim boarding in the back of one of our properties, we had about 3 inches of flooding all over the grass- it was perfect!!!
The BLS started up this Sunday night and I'm on the BLS leadership team with another base staff guy and headed up by Mary Huffman. She's a long time YWAMer and she has asked me to apprentice under her, I'm stoked to be apart of the team. Also, the SFC (snowboarders for Christ) met this weekend in Christchurch, and myself and another kid (Scott Blythen) went to check it out! I think it's really going to be amazing! I was with friends this Friday and Sat in Christchurch, and we went all the way to littleton, Taylor's mistake and back around to ChristChurch, it was so beautiful! The rain just let up as we went to look at some WWll Guns on the coast and the sun came out. :)
Things are getting better around the base, like my good friend who left said, the clouds do lift. The snowboarder staff are getting going and it's one month to the day the school starts. I've started P90X with some base staff, which has quickly become HUGE and almost everyone is doing it! It's kicking my butt that's for sure, I could barely get my arms above my head. I'm more at peace here now than I have been for the last 2 months. I'm supported now from leadership and from (most) of my peers. My main goal is to setting the tone as best I can. It's pretty good so far- humbling, but good. Love you all!
