Time is FLYING!!

So its been about a week or so since I last wrote.. I have finally gotten some time alone at the computer where I can think.

Things here seem to be going a super speed. It feels like each week flies by too fast. We have so many activities planned and spend so much of our time with the students and with our group it feels like the days just zip by! It is so much work, but also a ton of fun! We are getting to invest in so many students lives and hear their thoughts about faith and religion and share ours too. The students here are so open to talking about spiritual topics and almost expect to talk about them when they are with us now.

Most of the time that we spend with our team is doing activities together.. like walking in the park, planning out our week, exploring the city of Karaganda.. Whatever we are doing, we are having a good time.

The past two or three days have been extremely hot here. The temperature had to be between 95-105 degrees. It was insane. However last night it got very cold in the middle of the night and I had to get up and grab some more sheets so I didn't freeze. Hopefully tomorrow will be a normal temp.

Also over the past week I have gotten the opportunity to share the Gospel with two students. Both of them are Muslim. One more serious than the other, but it was still great to be able to have a conversation with them about these spiritual things. I am hoping to be able to meet with them a few more times before we return to the US.

Well that's all for now.. I have to get up a 6am to watch the Flyers play game six against the Blackhawks.

GO FLYERS!!
