First day of drama training!

Today was my first day of drama training! I was assigned the part of a mime. I'm enjoying it so far, but its definitely more involved than I thought it was! We've already had 3 hours of training this morning, and we're in the middle of our 5 hours of training for this afternoon. I'm having fun, though, because I'm making lots of new friends! My roommates are really fun, and I'm starting to get to know other people from my team through the drama training. Anyway, I'm on a break now and it's about to end, so I better get back to work! Thanks for all your prayers!

Leaving tomorrow!

Last minute preparations for Guatemala are underway! Early tomorrow morning I'm heading to the Rochester airport to fly to Miami. We'll be there for 3 days of drama training before we actually fly to Guatemala on Thursday. I'm excited to be going after so much packing and preparation! At the same time, it's a little nerve-wracking because I won't know anyone in a group of 700 people, but I'm looking forward to getting to know them. I know that we will all mesh quickly because we're there for a common purpose.
Please pray for the safety of all the incoming flights, and also for everyone's health as we all meet in Miami. As the teams begin to train together, also pray that there would be unity and willingness to work.
I'll let ya know what's happening next time I get a chance! :0)
