Mission Trip(:

Sorry for not blogging forever(: I've been so busy(: Anyways, I got back from the mission trip last Sunday. and it was amazing! I got so so much closer to God, made new friends, and made old friendships even stronger.

We started off the week meeting everyone who was going to be there. That was such a fun night. It was really cool to see a lot of people in one place passionate for God.

On the 2nd day, we started work projects. My team (a team is about 10 people who go to a site) started painting a house. I have never painted a house before, so it was a new experience for me. Plus it was a ton of fun to meet people who you don't know and just connect(:

The 3rd day we did work projects again, and finished the house. It was sad to leave the house, because it was a lot of fun to hang out with people all day(:

Next we started on Kids Club. Its pretty much a condensed version of VBS. It was a lot of fun(: We got to hang with a lot of cool and crazy kids. I was helping out with crafts, and we painted rocks(:

The next day it was the same thing, but still a lot of fun(:

The last day was one of the best. We got to hang out with all of the new friends we had made for a short period of time, then head on back to home(:

One of the things I enjoyed the most was the nightly "trips" we took. We would go visit a "historical" sight in the town, and learn more about the history of it all. It was really cool to see a small community from a different perspective.

All together it was a lot of fun, I can't wait 'til next years mission trip(:

P.S.- if you want to see pics, I have a TON on Facebook(:
