I didn't eat lunch today

Summer has begun and up until this point it has been and will continue to be, a great time and lots of fun. This week however is lame. Two of my best friends Zach and Arthur, moved out of our apartment for the summer and another one Carson, left for Germany on Tuesday. I'm struggling. It's OK though. Carson is in Germany right now with his ISP team doing ministry through athletics and recreational sports. It's very exciting to watch throughout the course of the summer the amount of people that are being sent out across the globe to spread the Gospel of Christ. I am leaving for my own trip at the beginning of July. I'll be travelling to Thailand and am very excited to see how God will move in me, my team, and our ministry.

If you want to learn a little more about ISP, check out a video that they have here.

In the meantime be praying for the teams that are already in the field and those that will be going. Pray that they would have,

-boldness in sharing the Gospel
-safety in travel and in country
-unity among the teams
-growth
-The work of the Holy Spirit to move mightily in their lives and that work to be apparent and clear to whom they are ministering to.

I'm still awaiting the ability to load pictures without my web browser quitting. So lame again. Once that happens though I promise I'll get some images up here to make it more interesting. Maybe I'll get it fixed this weekend.

Until then I will leave you with this quote from C.S. Lewis, "Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival."
