My First Missions Trip (Part 2)

Day 2.. We went to Cholula, where there is a church on a hill and the pyramids right below it..

This is a small "Italian Coffee Company" where I planned on having my coffees and morning breakfast... :) a cute placeright across from the Cathedral. Beautiful at night!


More buildings.. Through the windows, I could see GORGEOUS chandeliers and beautiful furniture... I was in awe... Seriously lol

Me, Brittany & Karoline :) waiting to get on the bus

You can see where we are headed...

Gary & I sitting on the ledge lol
Yeaaaaa, tried not to fall over the edge!

The steep climb.. You coud either go up a ramp or take stairs
Stairs were the WORST!

The next climb was pretty steep
Needless to say, I ran up these LOL

The view from the top of the stairs

Karoline!

Part of the group :) I really enjoyed meeting and getting to know every one on this trip


So... I'm adventurous.. I went around the gate to the edge of another building..

Cool picture though, right? ;) Lol

Another adventurous one (Gary)


And another (Jacob) lol

Well, this is an Insane Asylum right down the hill.
We could see the people

We can never take too many pictures :) SMILE!

Inside the church


You weren't considered a "missionary" until you ate a cricket
They tasted like pumpkin seeds...
We even had them for dessert later this night LOL
I'm not joking people :)

One picture of the pyramids on the other side of the hill :)

I think this picture captured everyone on our missions trip:)

Bus ride back to the hotel! Choir practice on full stomachs lol!





And here, we ended our night with choir practice
(well, in pictures at least lol the fun kept going & going all night)



Stay tuned for more pictures!

Bible Quizzer

Umm.... I had no idea what I was getting myself into lol! This is my first year of Bible Quizzing and man! I love it!!!!! :D I can't wait to go to the competitions!! :D We have to learn over 400 verses but as Bro. Vick & Brendan said "Don't look at the numbers." It's easier when you don't look at numbers and you just memorize and go over them everyday!!! I'm so excited!!! It has motivated me to get done with schoolwork lol. I hope we have a good (NOOO, a GREAT!) team so we can go to more competitions. :) Fun & traveling! Which teams do you know that are awesome Bible Quizzers?? Do you have any tips for a first time BQ??? :)

Courage in the Altar

It takes courage to walk to the altar (a lot of the time). Especially when you are struggling and going through trials. Most of us feel embarrassed or have too much pride to cry in the altar, shout, or dance in the Spirit. It really does amaze me.. It's like we are intimidated by other women/men.. Have you ever noticed it? Courage: " have the courage of one's convictions, to  act   in accordance with one's beliefs, especially in spite of criticism." (dictionary.com) I've heard plenty of people say, "The day so&so shouts and runs the aisles is when I'll do it." I REALLY don't get it! Do these people not have the revelation of worship, praise, and not to care what others are going to think about them?? Sometimes, worship is a life or death situation. :/ Seriously. You won't give God 100% of your praise... You're holding back.. You won't let loose. The saints of God get victory through prayer and worship.
