Hola from Honduras!

Hi everyone! I am currently updating from my ipod touch so please excuse all typing/spelling errors. I've already spent one week in honduras and am working on my second. I'm having an awesome time. This past week we worked in a village in the mountains. It was gorgeous up there! And the people were so sweet too! I'm goin to miss them so much. We went and worked in the morning an had vbs with the kids in the village after lunch. Then on some nights we had worship. I love the worship time because you could tell the people were real in their worship. I'll post some pictures when i get home. This next week I'm going to e helping run a camp for orphans. It sounds really exciting! Ok, I'm going to log off of here. I hope everyone has a wonderful week and please keep praying for me :) I appreciate t a lot. Adios!

Manifesto

Hello all! I hope you are doing well. I am terribly sorry for not posting in forever. I figured once school was over, I would be posting like a maniac, but alas, it was not to be. I've been out of school for about a month now (lets hear it for being homeschooled! lol), but just as busy as ever. :) One of the things occupying my time is my drama team at church. This morning we did a new drama! It's called 'Manifesto' and is set to 'Manifesto' by the City Harmonic (which, by the way, is an AWESOME group. You should totally check them out). In it, we make the Creation scene, Moses parting the red sea, David and Goliath, and lots of others! It all ends with everyone praising God. I think it is a REALLY cool drama. Its below, so please watch it. Tell me what you think!

This week, we (the youth group) are off to church camp! YAY! Please be praying for us to really get to know God so much more. Hopefully there will be pictures maybe next week. :)

'Everything' by Lifehouse/Colton Dixon

Once again, I am so impressed with Colton! He sang 'Everything' by Lifehouse on Wednesday. Everything is a Christian song and he says (not in this cut of the video) that it is his favorite worship song and that Jesus is his everything. I'm seriously very impressed with him. You can get the songs that he was sung on iTunes if you want! :)

Colton Dixon

Yup, thats right! I'm a Colton fan. 

Colton Dixon is a contestant on American Idol this season. He has always kinda been on my list of favorites but yesterday, he moved to the TOP. Why you ask? Well, I'll tell you. Because he isn't afraid to stand up for God! Yes, once again, thats right. I read this article yesterday that my Mom posted to her facebook page. It is really short and I encourage you to read it. I really believe that we need to be backing him up as his family in Christ through prayer and encouragement (and voting...). He is doing the right thing by sticking to his faith even though people around him are telling him that he is going to fail because of it. He is trusting God and that isn't always easy to do.

So, please be praying for Colton and what God is going to do through him. :)

Pinterest

That is right! I got a Pinterest. I'm still trying to figure it out, but I think I'm going to like it. Do any of you do it? If so, tell me about it! What do you pin about? As of right now, all I have pinned about is my photography. People pin about so many different things! I've seen wedding dresses, musical instruments, recipes, animals, etc... Very cool :)

My friend, Ashley, has a blog now! You should defiantly go check it out! She is blogging about her experience in Haiti right now. She is on a mission trip there and so many people have been healed and have gotten saved! Its so amazing to read about her experiences there! Here is the link: Ashley's Blog

Basketball Boy

See that kid in the picture that is jumping so high? Yup, thats my little brother, Ben. He loves to play basketball. My dad and I help coach his team at our church and he is amazing at dribbling! :) So, as an older sister who also loves to play basketball, I am very proud! :P  (BTW, yes I know thats not a basketball he is shooting, but still! Haha)

In other news, I am thinking about resurrecting my old photo blog... Thoughts?
