Man I need to post here more often.
This past Friday we had a vespers for grades 7-10 at my apartment! We had been talking about doing this for a while and finally just did it haha. It was cool to have something for just the older kids, who sometimes feel a little ...meh just suffice it to say that it's hard to do a chapel for all ages, so you usually wind up leaning towards the ones who will be the most distracting if not tended to. Which is the little kids. So Friday we had the older kids over, gave em haystacks (this was great fun since most of them didn't know what to make of food that required some assembly.. most just wound up with chips and several of the toppings on the side as dip).. Then I spoke to them for a half hour or so about finding out Gods purpose for your life. After that we played some Bible games, kind of sherades, which were also funny because some of them don't really know the Bible so their depiction of stories were a little bit off at times haha. Anyway. So yea I had a house full of joy :)
Sabbath we went to the church at the southern end of the island, Kagman church. They meet in a rented business building. Nice people, good fellowship dinner :p
Sunday we went to Managaha (a small island off the western side of Saipan) for the day! I dug a hole in hot pursuit of a crab (who ultimately evaded me, pesky bugger), was chased and bitten by a surprisingly aggressive trigger fish, and swam out to where the reef dropped off into the deep ocean. I felt fear there. It was odd.. The water just got cold and dark. The unknown. I found a big yellow starfish, about a foot and a half in diameter which was pretty sweet.
Gotta go, more later
