Back in Action out here at YWAM Honolulu. The students are now all here and have began their first 2 weeks of DTS. So far so good I am still learning names. I have been doing very well. God has been challenging me with Leadership lately. I am in charge of work duties in the Yard with students from Monday through Friday. So that is exciting! We all work together raking, mowing, weed eating, trimming trees, washing cars also. Its weird to not have Brandon here because last quarter him and I really hung out a lot. We did everything together. So now that he is on outreach God is really challenging me to walk in my own shoes and live out his calling on my own. Which is fun and hard and good for me all at the same time. I am so excited for this next quarter with DTS. After meeting with the Director of the school, I was asked to be involved with one of the teams for the next 3 months. So along with Base staff I am now currently a DTS Support Staff. Meaning I am a part of a team until they go on outreach. It is so exciting and also very challenging. God is really stretching me a lot and I love it. It sounds weird to love a challenge that seems impossible but for me its really good because it causes me to lean on God. I cannot staff without God. I cannot live without God. So having more responsibilities here is causing me to go to God and really rely on him for help. Its great I love it. Another thing that I forgot to mention was that I am also helping run evangelism for this school. Its so much fun and at first I thought I would be so bad at it but so far I love and God challenges me every time we go out Tuesday Night. Last week I talked with an Atheist and actually really enjoyed our conversation. He got angry and wanted me to leave but I told hey I had a lot of fun talking with you! All that apologetics studying I have been doing is reallly paying off. It is allowing me to see things clearly and also point out falsehoods in the lives of people who deny God. Not in a judging way but in a way that I can understand their reasoning but at the same time have a rebuttle with Truth. Its really awesome! So at this current stage of my life God is really challenging me as a leader. I am in charge of a lot of stuff on the Base and also have a small role in the DTS school this next 3 months. I am super excited to see how God continues to reveal himself to me and how he continues to use me!


Please pray for me in this way:
- Time Management
- My daily devotions to God would stay priority
- Patience with God and his plans for my life
- More wisdom and discerment as a leader
- Boldness when sharing the Gospel During evangelism!
- Constant revelation in my life with God
