Yesterday was Saturday and we got to sleep in! Woo hoo! It was so nice. Registration for Gateway and getting to know each other was Saturday afternoon at 2:00. Played some silly team building games and shared our stories of what brought us each here to serve with Mercy Ships. For dinner we split into small groups. Ann is my small group leader.
After dinner, 8 of us went for a walk around the campus. Saw the farm :) It is so hot here in Texas! So after our walk we went for a swim and then enjoyed an Italian Soda from the Anchorage Cafe. Mmmmm.
This morning we slept in and went to the 11:00 CCF (Community Christian Fellowship) church that is next door to the IOC (International Operations Center). Had a sandwich and a short nap then off to Orientation!
Got my homework for tomorrow done. Yay! Designed a title page for the notebook that we will be using to turn in all of our written assignments, came up with some goals for my time here, and explored Mercy Ship's intranet for this week's "scavengar hunt."
Got to catch up with Mom via cell phone, and Skyped with Matt! <3
Faith Foundations starts at 8:00 AM. Pray that I can be alert and focused this week and be able to benefit from what is laid before us. (Yes, I think that means doing my part as well by getting some sleep!) :)
