Elbers At K7

Hello,

It has been another week on the island on Vancouver. We started our Spiritual Formation class last week, and it was a wonderful class. I can't explain how much I enjoyed listening to Dr. Penner. We started class at 9:00 and went until 3:30. The first three days us kids had to be in charge of planning a chapel service. It was a great experience, some people did rap, skits and singing. On Saturday we spent 9:00 to 11:00 alone with God. We took that time to just talk or sing to God and read the Bible. Those two hours were so precious. I couldn't believe how fast the time went. At the beginning I thought I wouldn't find anything to do, but once I started praying and praising God the time just flew by.

Last night we had a dance competition. They put us in groups of five and we had to make up dances in 45 minutes. I was on the country team! It was a blast. We have so much talent here. It was great to see some of the shy people bust out and shock everyone =D.

Tomorrow we are leaving for the S.A.L.T.S trip. We are sailing on a ship for about 6 days. We get to take care of the sails, ropes and everything. Everyone here is pumped for this trip. Please pray that the girls get well, most of them are sick. And pray that we have good weather.
