well i am back from my adventures on Mount Washington, and frankly i don't feel any ache in my body!, i feel like i could have gone for another week straight if there was snow and minimum amount of people on the hill but, with it ending as it did i am content with coming back. the sweet thing that ended the trip was going straight to youth from the hill on friday evening. one thing that has really struck me coming back is my love for going to youth. I felt such joy to come back and hang out with the Youth and i am starting to feel a love for them as people and long to be around them to show Christ to these broken children. We are getting the new youth pastor in february but i believe we will be gone before we see some large amounts of change in the youth program which i am looking forward to. on sunday Pastor Rob announced that there are Kaleo students in the church and that people should take them out for lunch! Finally! More free lunches that are home cooked!
My parakaleo Tyler come for the weekend prior to, and the week of snowboarding which was pretty sweet because how many students in my year can say that there para. came snowboarding with them for a week? just one and i think thats me.and on top of things he gave me a snowboard! a very outstanding individual ill say. not that he gave me free things, but because he is a rad man of God who is another ray of light shining into some grim realities.
We are reading christian doctrine and every time i start reading that darn book my eyes get heavy and all i want to do is sleep. i sure hope the theology teacher isn't as dry as this book because I'm fairly interested in theology of the Christian faith for a firmer foundation, But add some colour to your friggin book and dumb it down a bit because your average christian isn't exactly a PHD. in theology!!
But enough rambling, i got a name now and it isn't Nate.... well it is but i got another name! it is Mender. that blew me away because i am feeling like it is name that i have to grow into more than i already am. so i am guessing that there is more growing for me to do in the next few months which i am looking forward to doing but i feel like i have some very big shoes to fill.
Im out of here, got a whole-lotta homework to do but not a whole-lotta time and, some other stuff, like a special box that is going to be in the mail sometime. to a special somebody, well that just sounds creepy, its for Kaitlin. and i know your reading this along with the fam-jam and i miss you lots, three months Isn't that long.
XOXOXO
Nate Boyda.
