ive neglected you all long enough

since coming back to the US i'm just sooo lazzzyyyy. I'm writing you all now to give an update on why im not giving you updates just yet.

I'm going to be getting my teacher's certificate and/or maybe a Masters in Education before i go back over. That is going to take between 1-2 years to do. This is being done so hopefully when I head over I will actually know a little more about what i'm doing, so instead of winging it 90% of the time maybe i can get it down to 75-80% :)
If you're still interested in praying for me i do have some requests and updates

1. My school; that I'll stay motivated and learn alot
2. My future location, I DONT KNOW WHERE I'M GOING - when i go back over im still nto sure where to, help me figure it out please :)
3. Kurosh - he is still moving forward and because of current events his family is coming to see him and are with him as we speak, this is an awesome opportunity; for his continued growth and time with his family.
4. Dtee is still around and it doing about the same as normal, hes in the rainy season this is normally when we would get to talk the most as there arent hardly any customers; for someone to come along and continue where i left off

Thanks everyone! if you have any questions or comments - email me - gr4cemd@gmail.com
OR call me 850-438-9926

the land of my youth :D

Well I have been back for about a month i think so its time for a homeside update

1. I have been able to keep in contact with kurush, dtee and ben; they seem to be ok, kurush is continuing forward with his american pseudo-family and he is growing from what i can gather yayy!

2. Update for here; I am looking for a job for a while. (soften

I'm going to be moving to malaysia in June to start a volunteer job with the malaysian-imb university ministry there; i'll give it it's name now, The Connexion. Total expenses every month should be around 215$ and im set to stay there until december so thats like 1505$ total for the trip so im hoping with a month worth of work should do most if not all of that. So if any of you hear of jobs give me a holler please as im having a hard time finding somewhere to work around here. If it comes down to closer and i havent been able to make the money i may have to come begging; i'm going to talk to brother al soon about speaking at lakeview as its kinda my only church home but hopefully by the time that happens i will have the money by then; we will see. anyways this is your warning that i may come begging in the next 2 months ;)

pray for me;
1. staying close to Him on vacation and not vacationing from Him
2. finding a job
3. preparing for my time there; i have a book to read that they will be going
over for the time im in malaysia
4. kurush, dtee, ben, and the other boys in pakkret, i am planning to go back
and see them for about 5 days before i hop the plane to malaysia
