The Last Day...A New Beginning

Today was the last day of Advance Crew here at Qwanoes. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was posting about the beginning of Advance Crew (to me anyways). This spring has been an amazing time of working together as a team and meeting some really awesome new friends. It has also been an encouraging time of learning how to be the body of Christ and worship God together. Last Thursday we had a very powerful worship time together during our weekly bible study. The room was so filled with the Holy Spirit that you couldn't help but be excited and dance with joy ( and that's a big thing comeing from me who doesn't dance...ever) God was really working in the hearts of those who were there and it was so wonderful to worship God without any hinderance. I fully believe it was a taste of Heaven.

That aside there will be around 80 or so who will be joining our 60ish tomorrow and Staff Training will begin. I am excited to meet all these people whom I have been emailing and phoning for the last few months.

Prayer Requests

1. Unity and Integrity of the staff team. Pray that those who are here would warmly welcome those who are coming and that we would merge well.

2. Open Hearts. There will be a lot of stuff and learning happening during staff training. Pray that we all would have open hearts to what is said!

3. Excitement for the summer. Sometimes it is easy to remember how tired I was at the end of last summmer and look ahead and feel drained already. Pray that I would look at the summer with excitement for all that God has ahead of me.

4. There have been several staff who feel that God has shown them that he has HUGE things ahead of us this summer. Pray that we would have faith and that nothing we do would hinder what God wants to do this summer!
