Henna and college life!

Hey everyone!!!
Sorry I haven't been able to keep up with this blog that well. I've been extremely busy with college, from doing homeworking, actually going to class, going to the study lab etc. Anyway, yesterday was Missions Fest at Crown (which is really AWESOME!!!!) and after the seminars they had Globe Trekking!!

I did Globe Trekking, first stop was Papua New Guinea. In Papua New Guinea we tried to translate John 3:16, and while we were trying to do that this guy comes in saying a villager tried to put a curse on him. Then after we prayed for the guy, the villager comes in having a fit that his curse did not work. The missionary than starts to talk to him explain why it did not work, which by this time we had to leave. Next stop was Thailand....Thailand, now that was a very interesting one. Thailand was to open our eyes to see how huge a problem prostitution is there. They also told us a testimony of a girl who was saved from prostitution by Rehab Ministries. It was quite sad, and just broke your heart to hear the testimony. From there we went to South America, where they talked about how families are trying to make money by working in the dumps collecting plastic. After South America we went to Morocco to the market, I "died" there from a terrorist attack. Lastly from there we went to a Hospital in Georgia, where there they do not have running water, electricity, and enough supplies for a hospital. It made you realize how great your life is, how much you have compared to the people there.

After Globe Trekking I got henna done on my hand/arm. Here's a picture of it.
 Well that's really all I have to say. Nothing really new here other than all the homework I've been doing for my college classes. May the odds be in your favor!

We Miss You

We miss you,
You did so much for us,
All of the students miss you,
How you would always ask how we were,
and how things were going for us,
Always smiling at us, loving us and caring about us.

Your cooking was amazing,
You were always ready to cook for us if we were not going home,
or for what ever reason.

I count myself lucky to have known you.
For you are gone now,
and now none of the freshman here
will ever get to know you like I did.

You were such a great example of a Godly woman. 
You showed it so well in all the love you gave to us.
Every time I came here with my mom you always
asked me how I was and how everything was going for me.
You showed me so much love and care. 
You even tried to teach me how to cook, 
and helped me use my Spanish.


You did so much for this College. 
For the students who won't get to meet you,
they will miss you even though they never met you.
Because they will hear all of the students who have met you,
tell them how wonderful you were, and how we miss you.
You loved all of the students, and for that we thank you! 
Even though we miss you,
We are yet happy for you.
For you are not suffering any more,
and you are with God now.
