Starting this weekend, Ricky and I, are going to be having studies with friends, family, and students at the Gym-Masters gym. We will be starting with the WOG study this weekend for a Sabbath School lesson. It is an effort for us to train and show them how to give a Bible study. Plus, to strengthen their faith in the Bible as an authoritative source!
Pray for us.
God bless. I will get pictures and information as this ministry grows.

To My Fellow ARISERE's
Fellow ARISErs,
In short I am missing ARISE. The structure, the people, and basically being in classes. I loved the fact that we could sit through classes and learn so much. And in between we had to wrestle with people to get them back into class. And how we tried to stay faithful to learning and to memorizing our Bible texts! Or even trying to read 200 pages in one night.. for a weeks time (Samuel Pipim).
Even watching the lunch crew live at 1 pm each day and watching the trash and hallways fill up and get dirty as no one could be found cleaning the facilities till Thursday evening. The continual ping of the ping-pong table will echoes in my mind and it makes me wish that time didn't have endings! But I am glad a little, because I would have been on clean-up crew this week. :)
A couple of other things I miss are the Englishmen and JD, discussing the next topic or trying to educate a fellow student. And I really enjoyed the outreach, it was one of my hardest, yet rewarding times. I actually miss seeing my fellow outreach brothers; JD, Laurent, and Billy. The music, the discussions, and a random dinner on a Sunday night during outreach. Good times.
Well, life back at home is not as structured and not as busy, yet. Ricky and I are starting a Sabbath School for the gymnastics team, again. Starting with the Word of God study. There are a lot of students interested in learning how to give studies.
I have to become better at organizing my time. So that could be on your prayer list! :) Anyways, I hope to start working soon too. Next week it looks like. Construction work, ya-yah!
May God lead.
