This is a picture of Clarke, who did not come with us to a concert called Parachute in Hamilton. However, he is letting me use his computer so I thought I would post the main picture of him. Also he is hilarious. Well I will make a short update to say that this weekend was a blast. We moved into the mountains at Gideon's Hights and have been figuring out what we need to make it as we go along... like beds. Today I helped put together the first set of bunk beds and then promptly took a nap on my accomplishment. So to make sure we didn't have too much cabin fever we set off to a Christian concert called Parachute about a two hour drive away. It was four other girls and myself and we had a wonderful time! We were really blessed actually because we were spoiled by people we had just met as they fed us and took care of us for our stay.
When we got back to base it was nice to see everyone again and we could tell that they really missed us loud and crazy girls. We have started lectures and they have been so full! Right now we are just starting out on the Father Heart of God with an amazing man named Frank Naea. On Wednesdays we take extra electives on how to take health care to people of different cultures, and another on leadership.
I know that God has really been speaking to me in such amazing ways. For a while I was wondering, "Ok what now?" after the first week being so awesome. I could really feel God telling me, "I have literally taken you from the desert to a lush and green valley, so that I can build you back up." To which I thought... oh, of course! I'm such a silly girl, how much more direct could you get! I know that even here there are so many distractions by going into town, but really I am just so amazed to be taken to such a remote place so that I can learn to draw into God during this time. Ok this was supposed to be a quick update so I'll end here! Love everyone!

Jacques I like how you took a nap on the bed you made right after you made it. Makes me laugh. "That was hard work!!! *YAWN* ZZZZZ..." haha. Love you, Mees.
