Hello again!
I just realized that I keep finding time on Wednesdays to update this. Random, but handy!
So a fair amount of stuff has happened since my last update! Last week we had our first adventure day! We went on an 8 mile canoe trip down in Arkansas! it was a lot of fun!! The river we were on was gorgous, with a lot of trees and rocks and hillsides along the way. The place where we stopped for lunch had a cliff overlooking a deep spot on the river, so a bunch of us climbed up on that and jumped in. That was exciting! :) Overall, the day was wonderfully relaxing, and a lot of fun! I did get a bit of a sunburn, but that's fading now, so not bad at all.
On Saturday night, we had a tacky bowling evening. So everyone got some pretty wacky outfits and we took over a bowling alley for the night! That was a lot of fun as well!! It was pretty crazy to see the outfits that everyone came up with.
Sunday, I got to go to the church that I will be attending for the rest of the project. It's called Harvest, and it's an Evangelical Free church just like my church back in NH. It is a lot different than I am used to--more traditional--so it's neat to see how they do things differently down here. After church and lunch, I got some laundry done and helped another girl from the prayer team plan a prayer & worship service that we will be leading every week. We had the first service later Sunday evening, and it went really well!
Since Sunday, most of my time has been taken up with work at Silver Dollar City! That has gone well! We have been training all this week so far--learning where to park people and how to drive the trams. Tomorrow we should end up taking our tests and then we will be allowed to drive the trams without a trainer on board! That's pretty exciting! I think pretty soon I will be getting together with the others who are taking the test tomorrow so that we can go over the manual and quiz each other. So if you read this before tomorrow, any prayer would be appreciated! :)
The rest of this week looks quite promising! Tomorrow we have work and then reflection night, where we just find some nice pretty spot in the area and spend a couple hours alone with God. On Friday, our adventure day is project olympics, which should be pretty fun! After that, a bunch of us are going to go to a baseball game! I'm getting pretty excited for that! And then it will be the weekend again!
I hope everything is going well back in NH!
Let me know if you have any specific questions about anything going on down here!
Have a fantabulous day!
