Who knew...

Every year camp has a theme song and dance. This year, I was one of the people in charge of making up the dance...who would have thought...!

******And for camp privacy reasons the video of our dance has been removed. Basically we dont want everyone to get tired of it before camp starts. :)

Vse Najboljše David in Mišo!!

Happy Birthday David and Mišo!!! We all hung out at David and Katka's the other day for a birthday party. It was one of the funnest nights Ive had in a long time! For a short video of their birthday party go to David's site, right here!

I just got my Visa today! It allows me to stay here for another two years! Will I be here that long?? Time will tell... :)

One tired little girl...

Sitting on my couch in my pajama's I feel as though I just ran a marathon! Im exhausted. What did I do today you might ask? Well let me tell...

Woke up in the six's--not sure why, way to early if you ask me
Went to the office for work
Had a Junior High Camp Meeting led by Johnny
Met with David about Highschool camp--ended up having counseling session about my life instead.
Met with two girls who are seniors in highschool, they want me to start tutoring them for the Matura (kinda like the SAT's).
Met with my Slovene tutor--who after realizing I was way too tired to think in Slovene took me out for coffee, paid for my coffee, and didnt charge me for the day's lesson. I have a wonderful teacher!

Why am I so tired you may ask? I look at my day and it was a pretty typical day! I really dont know why. But Johnny being the wonderful friend that he is, is bringing me dinner so I dont have to get up off the couch. And Anna is on her way home so that the three of us can watch the latest American Idol Episode. Tomorrow is my day of rest. Praise the Lord!!!

Trdna Skala...

Just over a year a go I stood with my fellow team members in a rundown room in the downtown area of Kranj (40mins from Ljubljana). We prayed for a new student center that Joel and Amy were opening up, which they named Trdna Skala (The Hard Rock). Tonight I sat in that same room, fully decorated and FULL of students! We had brought our youth group and combined with Joel's youth group for a night of FUN! It was such a blessing for my heart to see both groups laughing and having fun! For more info on Joel and Amy and Trdna Skala go to their blog! (www.woodardslo.blogspot.com)

Slovene Class...













It was really hot yesterday so Katja (my slovene teacher) and I decided to go outside to have our little class. We ended up sitting on a Roman Wall built in 45-55AD right next to a pyramid. Pretty incredible!! Students were studying, sitting and talking and taking naps on this wall. I think its one of my new favorite spots. Its only a few blocks from my house and I never knew it!

A trip to the movies...

On Saturday a group of 22 of us went to see Mr. Bean Takes a Vacation. After the movie we hung out in the movie theater snapping fun pictures...





















Then we went to a coffee shop.
The boys got bored pretty fast and so started goofing off in the little kids play section...What a wild night!
Thanks David for letting me steal your blog entry! :)

Church Retreat...











Our church took off for an incredible weekend on the Croatian Coast!! I got to practise my Slovene--a lot, we had a baptism where Neja was baptised, Yuri (a guy that Miso led to the Lord), a few of our other youth, and an entire family! 11 Baptisms in all. Also during the week there were new Believers, open hearts, and many questions asked. The last day all of the youth went out for ice cream. It was pretty incredible to see how much the youth has grown, even since a few years a go... It was truly an incredible weekend.















Meagan, me, Neja, Anna.














Peter, Katja, and Taja. An entire family getting baptisted!
