Haiti Here we come!

Tomorrow the second group will be heading off to Haiti! We will be passing the first group in the air as they head back to San Jose. I'm so excited after reading the blog of the group that is there now! I can't wait to see what God will do in the lives of those in our teams and the Hatians there! What a blessing to be able to go and serve and experience what God is dong in another country! To keep updated while we are there check out the blog that WestGate has and that we will be updating while there! I'll update more once we get back! :) http://westgatetohaiti.blogspot.com/

I just wanted to share a cool story. Our small group this last spring semester decided to start fundraising money through recycling. Through our group of seven girls and 3 weeks we raised $68. We decided to take this recycling idea to Awakening (Young Adults Group that I intern for) and fundraise money as a group! It was a fun event with lots of fun announcement videos for it! I have to admit I found a new hobby through doing this and a new revelation that you can make money off of recycling as a fun way for a new game! After our Sunday Ultimate Frisbee games, dumpster diving became a new fascination and every bottle found was like a prize in getting one step closer to fundraising for Haiti. We got creative and raised $154 more in the next month! So fun!
