p.s MY SISTERS GETTING MARRIED

brooke sucks at blogging

hello everyoen. i am so sorry it s been forever. i have come to the conclusion that i suck at blogging. but i am gonna try real hard to do better.. this message might have alot of grammer errors or spelling mistakes.. i am using a computer that is a minature laptop and the keys are real close together so its hard for me to type..
so my sister is getting married... july 3.. this preseneted me with a bit of a problem. my team leaves for outreach april 26 and gets back the last week in july.. therefore i am not able to go on out reach with my team. i will be comin gback in the end of april because ther e was no way i could go on outreach and make my sisters wedding and my leaders didnt want me to leave early from out reach.. i dont know the exact date of my return but i know its around april 20-25
these past few weeks have been crazy. we did a teaching on identity whihc was really cool and i could see that me and my dad have the exact same personality.. also there was this one night where a guy on my team.. who was from south africa.. collapsed and had to be taken to the hospital.. he had a few strokes in the past so although the doctors could not find anything wrong with him they ruled it as a siezure..
the same night we had some interesting things happen.. some kids on my team cast out spirits that were in a girl on my team..and then cast htem out of our entire house.. room to room. that was.. interesting..
this week we leared about the holy spirit. the teaching was good. but unfortuantely i was only able to go to one day of lecutres.. tuesday night i . being the kluts i am.. smacked my nose super hard on the bed.. giving myself a concussion.. i had to have 2 boys carry me down the four flights of steps its takes to get upstairs into a car where 2 staff members escorted me to the hostpital.. where i remained until 230 am.. the doctors said they dont think i broke my nose.. and gave me some drugs and sent me home tellin gme to be more careful and get lots of rest.. so to say the least i looked pretty aweful. with a black eye swollen face and a bumb on my nose.. haha. but it makes for a good story i think.
i really enjoy the church i am attending.. i love it infact.. you can download there sermons on i tunes so when i get hom ei will still be able to be connected ot them which is awesome
i also have mentined my friend from israel.. her name is rajaa. and me and her have become quite close friends.. she has no money and is over in irealnd on ywam on a ywam scholership.. where they take kids who cant afford to be there and pay for there lecture and outreach phases.. all they have to pay for is there plane tickets.. my friend does not have enough money for a plan ticket to her outreach location. so with my parents permission i am giong to help her get there.. i would like to ask that you .. as my supporters also keep rajaa in your prayers.. it is really hard for her..
thanks everyone for supporting me.. i look forward to seeing you all and telling you all of the great things god has taught me in my life

love you all

so its been a while

so its been a while since i last wrote.. so i thought i should right a little update.. i found a church here that i quite enjoy.. its very small and really feel at home. .. some of you may know the band blue tree. they were the main worship band at yc last year.. they attend the church that i go to.. which is pretty cool .. and wednesday night they are sharing about a trip they took to thialand so i am gong to try and make it.. every wednessday night i have a local out reach thing that i do.. there is agroup of 8 of us students who go and work at a kids klub.. . its for kids ages 5 - 11. . so its pretty cool.. we havent actually started yet but we start this wednesday. we did have a few meetings and its going to be pretty cool.. kind of like dvbs.. every wedneswsday with lots of games. and fun bible stories and stuff.. so thats pretty cool i guess. also we got our outreach options this past week and we had to pray and decide where we wanted to go over a weekend. which really was not much time. the options both involved a month of outreach throughout the republic of ireland.. and then one will go to South africa. and the other to israel wich is actually pretty cool cause we have 2 students from south africa and one from israel.. the girl from israel is actually one of my closest friend on the dts.. i chose to go to israel.

i am not 100 percent sure ifthats where i will be going but i will find out this week and lt you guys know.
i am still pretty homesick and it feels liek the feeling is here to stay .. please continue to pray.
thanks for the continued support.. both financially and prayerfully..
ill try and post more often
