Seeing as the time is just flying by, I am beginning to look
back at all the great times I've had with my team and in ministry. It's easy to
be distracted by the short amount of time left, but we still have a few weeks
as a team! Here are some of the things I definitely won't forget about this
year...
 
Oh, but before I get to that, I have a couple important notes: 1. my parents fly into this country tonight!!! 2. I get to see them on Tuesday!!! 3. If you are planning on sending me anything before I leave, you'll want to get it in the mail by Monday or Tuesday. The mail is unpredictable and my time is very limited! Check old blog posts for my address if you need it.
Ok, so back to memories:

Gold dust on my hands

Two Broken fridges, the broken shower door, the broken front
door, broken kitchen appliances, the broken shelf, broken sprinkler heads, and
the smelly cabinet in our room. How is it that so much fell apart?

"How do you find South Africa?"
 
Holy Spirit laughter and truly experiencing the power of the
Holy Spirit

Sleeping over in the township

Hanging out with old people for the day

Harmonizing with Sara as we sing "Faithful"

Sleeping in a room with 8 other girls

The drama ministry

Being empowered by both Firehouse leaders and our leaders

A multitude of crazy family nights including bingo while
dressed like an old person, Olympics, playing cops and robbers in the park,
Hawaiian luau birthday party, bowling

Living in a house of 15

Dance parties in our room

ATL's

Teaching at Route and speaking at Firehouse

Discipling Donna

Driving through Cape Town and
all the roads were called "Corfu"

Praying with Meghan every Monday and Wednesday before
ministry

Swimming lessons with Tannie Jessica and Tannie Leah

Playing "bigger and better" and receiving a fridge!

Reading a ton of books for discipleship

Our "memory foam" mattresses...haha
 
Delivering someone from demonic oppression

Unlocking the key to fasting

CCMP and the toddlers

Coffee after Firehouse, coffee after church, coffee after
Route

The Young Adults Camp
 
"What do you think of Obama?"

Quiet times with God on the beach

Cape St. Francis with the
Firehouse girls

The quote book

Daniel making unexpected visits

Funny South African phrases such as "shOH!", "Yoh!", "Aye
man!" and saying "Mmm" while raising eyebrows in order to say "yes".

Going to Mugg & Bean every Friday for internet

Driving on the "wrong" side of the road

Johanna always being pregnant (pretend pregnant of course)

"Are we going to swim today, tannie?" (I wish you could hear
it with the accent, it's so cute)

Pranks with Carmen and Cheré!

(more recently, i.e. today) Driving manual with Matt and
burning the clutch. That car was so difficult to find the gears!
