Emily in England

Hey Hey! Welcome to the wild world of Emily. You can come here and check me out living in "Her Britannic Majesty's realm of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"! That title for the UK is a direct quote from a good friend who's a bit particular about how one addresses his beloved country.

Weekend Away

Hello, Hello! I returned yesterday about 6pm from a fun-filled weekend away with 19 other people. Jon and I took several students, aged 16 and up to Scotland for a skiing/snowboarding adventure! It was super fun and i now have a sore bum! hey, i rhymed. This was a great opportunity to get to do something with the older youth, who are much harder to reach. They're just not as easy to amuse as 11 year olds! Though there was little snow and only one run open, i think everyone had a blast and it was just a great chance to get to know each other. Hopefully, because of the relationships built during this trip, we might see some more of these guys at events where we wouldn't normally. Please pray that they would simply be open to the possibility of having God be a part of their lives. And that the Holy Spirit would begin a good work in their hearts. It's always encouraging when you can see and hear about the great potential in youth, and these guys have such potential!

This will have to be short, but i thought I'd send you a couple pics of the incredible views in Scotland. These pics, taken from a car window, unfortunately do no justice to God's awe-inspiring creation.

Hope you guys are doing well, leave me a message, and I'll talk to you soon!!

P.S. I'll have to post pics later, the internet is being retarded!! Arg.
