Something To Look Forward To

Took a quick little picture of the view we had this morning.

Here's hoping that this is what Kaleo gets too! :)

Dreaming of a White Christmas

Merry Christmas, everyone! I hope you are enjoying family and friends, and finding space to reflect on the Grace of God wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.

Though we are not blessed with a white Christmas here, I thought you might be interested in what is happening on Mount Washington, where we will be in just a few weeks. Two meters of snow has fallen in the past 24 hours (3 meters in the past four days) and it is still snowing. Check it out by clicking here (you will need to get past the flooding in Courtney part - do you have to paddle to your brother's house, Erik?).

Miss you lots! Eat a ton, and we will see you soon.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, KALEO 8!!

Praying

Hey guys, I'm guessing everybody is at that point in their break where things seem a little hectic and a touch stressful, but I really want to encourage you guys to continue to pray for one another. I know it can be tough when you feel like you have a bajillion other things to do, but prayer is one of the most important things on our schedule. Heck, we should be praying MORE (as hard as that may seem) when things are busy. So yah, I hope that everyone picks up their sheet of paper with all the prayer requests and thoughtfully goes through each of them. Don't forget that Jim sent an email with all the requests if you can't find your paper. I hope you are all having a wonderful break and that your Christmas is filled with immeasurable joy :)

OT LIT bloopers

Got bored and figured this was a good thing to work on lol

Another Retreat and Fast

So I was thinking about doing another Retreat and Fast over the break, though I have no idea. I was wondering if anyone wanted to join me. We may not all be able to do the same day because of all our plans but it would still be sweet. Not to mention we could swap stories at the next student chapel, or real chapel. Either way it's been something on my mind to do and to encourage you guys to do too. (Not to mention I'm eating alot of junk food since coming back, a day without food would be me good).

Oh, this is for everyone on my main land. So last year me and my mom did Potters (a homeless minsitry) on Christmas day, we were thinking of doing it again this year. You can really come any hour of the day for however long you can stay, I'll most likely be there earlier in the day (not sure of a time yet) but hey if anyone would like to join me I'd be delighted, just replay here and I'll give the info.

Merry Christmas, Kaleo!

Personalize funny videos and birthday eCards at JibJab!

guess I'll do the first Christmas break post.

yup, i miss you all already.

that is all.

Kaleo Christmas!!

Alright everbody, we just finished our Kaleo Christmas and I thought I would throw some pictures up here, just for fun :) Mind the blurriness, didn't think using flash was a nice thing to use so early in the morning but sadly there really isn't that much lighting in the lobby haha

The life of a Kaleo student...

Well I saw that this blog was lacking in posts so I thought I would be the brave one and step forth. Alright so Erik has decided that we should talk about what has been happening at Kaleo. In the last week we have had a considerable amount of snow, which is apparently an abnormality for Crofton. Quite beautiful.

As in other news, we have just finished our Hermeneutics paper at 5:30 this evening. How joyous a time! Not really. It is always interesting to see people staying up late... or not staying up at all but rather pulling an all-nighter... Sarah. haha.

What else have we done... Oh! We had our DTG this week. And if you have no idea what that means, like I did, it means Ditch the Guys/Ditch the Girls. Sorray Guys! But ya, the girls went to Victoria to the Parkers' house while the boys went to Nanaimo for swimming and Jim's later for steaks. Yum.

Well that is basically all. The top picture is from the guest house, while the other was taken by one of the Brazilians, Henrique.

Well that is all for now! Have a good day! I couldn't think of something else to say.

Oh P.S. No shave November is almost over... Hallelujah! Just a few more days.
