Goofing off and getting ready for Brazil.

You haven't heard much from me these past couple of weeks because not much has happened. That's good and bad. I had a great time hanging out with friends from Hopkins and Baltimore two weeks ago. I love Baltimore! It has everything right next to each other: poverty, wealth, bright people, stupid people, artists, engineers, and some crazy people I call my friends. Mario sorry I missed you!

Then I continued my tour of friends on down to Middlesex, VA. My church had their annual baptism/party on the Rappahannock River. Good times on the rivah hanging out with friends from Northern VA!

Then the same weekend headed down to Suffolk to enjoy Labor Day with more family. Got to meet the latest addition to the family, Brandon. Since then I've been hanging out in West Point with my high school buddy Chris Henley. While he's running his family's hardware store I'm learning Portuguese with Rosetta Stone.

Aside from that I've had one random trip up NoVA for an orthodontist appt and a kayaking trip with my friend Josh Fix yesterday. It was a gorgeous afternoon off the islands of mosquito point. Sorry I didn't take any pictures, forgot my camera.

Overall, having a good time catching up with friends and family and yet dying to get back into the missions field.

I'm still getting ready for my trip to Brazil and hence have a favor to ask you:
Consider taking over my cell phone contract. The contract expires in September 2006. If I cancel it early, I lose $175.00, but I can transfer it for free. Verizon Wireless does an incredible job indoors or outdoors, rural or urban. It works everywhere that I've been. Only thing is it won't work in Brazil. :( This is the only cell phone company that hasn't pissed me off which is amazing! If you have one of those crap services like Sprint or Cingular you need this phone. You can have the phone itself for free. My nationwide plan costs me about $50/mth after all the taxes and surcharges and stuff.
I'll be posting a few more random favors but getting my phone a new home is the main one.

Have You Made the Wonderful Discovery of the Spirit-Filled Life?

Have You Made the Wonderful Discovery of the Spirit-Filled Life? Here is an incredibly powerful step every Christian should take in their spiritual growth. I went on a retreat this year the weekend before Easter with my church to go through the process of taking inventory of my sin and repenting of it. My prayer life is stronger than ever now because there is no longer that wall of unrepented sin blocking Him from hearing me.

The YWAM VA Experience

Before Che Guevara hooked up with Fidel Castro to start the revolution in Cuba, he used his training in medicine as a ticket to travel all over Latin America offering help wherever he went and build relationships across the continent. I am finding out my ticket to travel the world and serve is computers. Serving YWAM VA as resident computer geek has been an awesome excuse to build relationships with YWAM missionaries, and learn more about what God is putting on people's hearts to do for His kingdom. Several ywamer's here ( Monica , Kay, and Mike) are answering the call to mend a very damaged relationship between Jews and Christians. After a couple millenia of organized Christianity committing atrocities against the Jewish people there is now a new flood of Jews discovering Jesus. Christians are finally treating Jews in a Christ-like manner and they are responding by embracing Jesus as their Messiah. The Jewish World Office Ywamers here are pretty excited to see the number of M...
