Have I mention that I love learnning things, I mean honestley, I am so blessed to be filled with knowledge from so many people here.

I have been praying for my heart to be open and to love more, and to learn more, and to have great conversations with people, and I have been praying for joy, love, and peace, and honestley the Lord is good, and so is life right now. I mean I am so happy with who God is shapeing me to be through Him . He is wounderfull . I honestley think starting my day with devos is a excellent way to wake up.
I am trying to think of something to say negative becasue I probaly sound crazzay right now thi postitivity however theres not much, I mean there are a lot of people who need help and prayers here, but im exctied to see what God is going to do in their lives,
oh and i have huge news i found out this week which is excting.,

oh and um i could wrtie down all the things i have done, but who cares really i mean ya i went to a missions fest, danced almost everyday with ellie, laughed until i cried with jessica, walked on the beach with katlyn, had a awesome convo with everyone here, and prayed lots, but it really doesnt matter what you do its all how you feel, who you changed, what you learned through your expiernces in which you have done, because i could have done all thouse things and it didn't have to effect me in the way in which it did , but through God life is amazing.
oH And uh i would love to thank all the staff here at Qwanoes and Kaleo. jim, kristie, justin and marrissa.

bloggin er up once again

Hello Best friends
Once again ladies and gents this week lived up to its very finest. It began at the conference! One of my favourite quotes from the conference was from Albert Einstein- Continually doing something you know does not work is the definition of insanity. I experience many great leaders and pastors with wisdom over my head, many of the speakers talked about the importance of the way the church functions. the way it was originally designed to. the pastors both male and female brough encouragement to me to never stop growing with Christ, and to never stop believing in hope. Also the importance of rest, evaluating your self, I learned how we need to be more careful in bringing people to Christ now, and we need to try to understand where they are coming from.

The week brought overall hope, peace and made me more excited about spreading the gospel to others. I am so glad I got to experience this with my fellow christian friends. I even got to have lunch with my Youth Pastor from New Brunswick. ;)

Overall I am getting ready to go home, and need to realize that its coming soon, and I cannot come back the same person, what I mean by this is I need to show people love more, and care for people more. I need to be less worldly.

Overall this week was great I prayed to have a great week and I did. PRAYER WORKS! <- That's just incase you fergot!

I am ready for the future, and need to be consitinley praying.
Have a great week and thanks for reading ;)

Hey friends


Hello!!!
I hope you have had a fantastic week, I sure have. you know what is weird, growing as a person, I MEAN REALLY NOW! you would think when your 19 you would hae stopped growing now. However God is not finished with me, not even close, if Kaleo has taugh me one thing that would be it.:)

I LOVE KALEO. If I could describe kaleo in one word I would say Running.
you wanna know why, well. It's hard some times you want to puke your guts out,
however
the reward of finishing the race is incredible, you feel healthier, and overall in some sick way it feels amazing and refreshing, even though your super tired.
I love it.
This week was pretty swell, it stated off with me going to youth which was fun we watched a movie for a bit, than finished off with Ellie doing devotions along with some games, overall it was superb. I look foward to seeing the children each and every week. they are sooo cute. Sunday was a great service at church. Vince invited us over to a feist at our house, can I just say one thing, caramel apple pie, with whip cream is to die for.
home work is finally slowing down which is swell, I think my pulse is working again which is nice.
24/7 prayer week. HELLO! praying an hour a day was wounderious. I really felt as though God was working though me, HE STILL IS ! its happening baby. God is anwsering many prayers, and I love praying for you guys too. I would like to continue this prayer week in my daily sced .
Overall I am loving CM so far Dave maybe could be the best teacher so far, we'll just wait and see.
Anyway have a great week. Thanks for takeing time to read my blog
Have a great day:)

rain rain go away:) come again NEVEA'

thanks for reading my blog, and thanks for all your prayers as well. this week was a bit tiring with all the home work and late nights . what can i say bible school is a rough business. however i made it here once again, another monday im breathing no pig flu, and i even went against my morals and got the shot. you can call me katrena. im very brave. here me roar.
anyway learning the books in the OT. was really interesting i just we had even more time to dissect them to there full potential . very useful material that can benefit us in this day and age believe it or not.
friday youth was spend at the clippers hockey game. which was fine. i enjoy spending time with the kids. they give me hugs, and they are really cute , i remember being 13 and thinking that i could not mature any more , boy was i wrong. they are all gifts from God, so unique and full of life. Sunday I onced again helped out with sunday school, the topic was relevant to what we were learning in OT, it was the story of Abraham, I feel at home at lady Smith Baptist, they are very welcoming, and they count there blessings.
here at kaleo i am finding every one is so helpful, every one here has such a servants heart, and is so willing to give a helping hand. they truly love others. i guess thats part of being a christian. they are encouraging me to step out reach out to others i think my love language though is encouraging or spending time. rather than acts of service . ill work on it,
every week is so perfectly placed, i am so thrilled that we have prayer week! ah i wish it was all year round. during prayer i randomly started hugging the cross, and embracing his love for me. it's odd too because I not one to show affection. but i know god will never leave me. after that i prayed for our classmates, and i found this day went by beautiful because God was with me.

Do one THING every day that your scared OF.
p.s the simple things in life , make life.
DOUBLE P.S I LOVE YOU
XOXO

:)


this week went excellent
Friday youth was a lot of fun. Im receiving lots of hugs from the kids, and they always tell me to come back next week , which of coarse i would. overall youth is going good. i love hearing stories of the girls. one girl even opened up to me about her family life, and i got to help her out which was great. i did a devotion for the girls and boys on Philippians 4.4. it spoke to them and me, and it was a good chance for me to step outside my comfort zone, and speak to the public.
Sunday service went well also. i help out with Vince in Sunday school, we talked about how we need to be care full with our words.
i really am enjoying my church and love all the people there.
this week w went to new life for a show. where a comedian came up and spoke about Christianity basically in churches today. he was funny and it made me think to how sometimes its okay to relax. the musician was peace full too.
QFX meeting went well our team thought of ideas for crafts at qwanoes, we all worked hard , and it worked out well where Scott bailey received a lot of input from all our ideas. overall kaleo is going good, and don is excellent speaker. the Lord continues to bless me every single week. this week we went to Kristie's house for cookies, it was a great time for the girls to bound and just relax in a differ net healthy working environment.

Hi everyone, thanks so much for your prayers.
This week I saw the olympic torch, the social event which took place crofton was superb. friday youth was once again swell, all the children love playing games with me , Ellie and Ben. I felt I was bonding with them hearing their backgrounds and just being silly, we always have a good time. My hope for that youth group is that there will be more students to attend over 15. my youth group started with 20 and finished with 400 so I know its possible. perhaps I was placed there to show them hope of growing there youth group, and more inportantly showing more kids to Christ.

Sunday church at Lady Smith Baptist was good too, I spent time with the children in Sunday school class, and assited the teacher, we drew pictures of Noahs Arc, and talked about Gods' creation. Overall sunday was one of a kind. or should I say 2. i wounder if you actually get that joke. Emma and Nate enjoyed Lady Smith also.

Kaleo this week taught me to have patience, which may go along with faith, to wait and find out why I'm actually placed here. I have a good idea, however I know God has more to show me, he has been too, the sunset at the doc today was amazing. Spending time with Ribs, and Merissa was so fun, Merissa teaches me patience and cares for our students so much.

heres some fun from your best friend me,
