so..
I've had a busy week since OneLife. Rose and I met up on saturday and went to see Casino Royale with Brent, it was a bit of an adventure as we went to the wrong cinema meaning we had to walk across Burrard bridge, but we managed ot get there not to late and luckliy despite a pay phone that didnt want us to contect with Brent we managed to get hold of him. Then it was off to Amys for food and a movie - a long movie lol!
Church on sunday was good, we got to talk about OneLife, and Greg spoke on James 3. Last one of the series tomorrow which is a shame because I love James!
On monday we turned up at Eric Hambar but it was a pro d day, worst luck lol! we've had an intresting work week, on tuesday we took the grade 7's at Simon Fraser out to some local food points for lunch and then on Thrusday the cafe at Lord Byng didnt really work, as we got drenched and didnt managed to get the stuff for various reasons but we contected with Micheal just as we where about to leave. Thrusdya night consited of home group and then off to amys to sleep over, after a late start on friday we looked over the last terms reports wooop what fun! During the week i managed to arrnage a meeting with The Well Cafe, in which hopefully we will be able to partner with them to be able to provide free coffee at Lord Byng.
In feb i have the chance to go to BC student forum http://www.bcstudentforum.com/ with most of it paid for! it will be an amazing opperunity and im extermly glad i have this chance. As I'm interested in Busines hopefully this will be my main focus.
youth groups pretty cool, on friday night we has a full band with Maddie, Sam and Brandon, helping Tom and then Sam and Mike talked about OneLife and Campus fire, so it was a pretty easy night for us, but pretty amazing and an awesome step towards whats to come. it slotted perfectly between OneLife and Missions Fest which is this weekend - which i go to as a Pais worker. and then Paul Gibbs is talking at Utown next sunday, so with that and a youth meeting tomorrow and FRESH - 2 days training my lifes to be pretty busy, especially seeing as i lead the team the week of FRESH and I have to lead department devotions on the thrusday, but we are proberly going to do a team social on the friday - 2rd feb- cos my birthdays on the sunday and on sat 3rd feb i hope to go snow tubing with the pais guys and Brent. so it shud be pretty sweet!
Anne and Dennis brought me 2 more big bags of costco carrots wooooooooop!
prayer points:
*meeting with the Well on monday at 10am
*youth group
*missions fest and FRESH - go smoothly learn loads
*im feeling slightly spiritually burnout, so for fresh passion, vision etc and someone i can be accountable to over here im really feeling that!

One Life
So I just got back - its 1.09am - from an amazing event called One Life. Check it out at www.onelifeyouth.com.
First things first, this morning started off bright and early, it was pretty chilly at 7.30am! the Westside team headed over to the north shore to watch the north shore/eastside team do any assembly! woop!! i got to see rose.
And this evening Amy and I started on an adventure and walked down this massive hill with ice everywhere - without slipping down i might add... and at the bottom was the church where One Life was being held!
Man was it good! The worship - a youth band - was awesome and the place was jammed with young people - high school students, sitting on the floor, standing on the sidelines! it was pretty crazy! but so awe inspiring and so great to see! but as a white person you stood out! we have a thing or too to learn from the asian young people in this city! ~One Life is an event by the youth for youth and there is so amazing people behind it!
And then Rebecca B, Chad, Brent and I went for a meal which was pretty funny! including the drive there... erm brent theres cars there, and a red light! so yeah a prefect end to an awesome night!!!!
watch this space! i hoewp to chat more to the youth that came a post some stories cos it would be neat for you to hear them!
updates coming soon:
*feb - an awesome oppertunity
*schools - whats going on
*life
* youth group
wooooooop
