YWAM Oxford

We are just now getting into the school routine. It's strange, after just arriving on Saturday - only 4 short days ago - it seems that everyone feels very comfortable with one another and the facilities - almost like we have been living here for more than just 4 days or so.

Tonight we'll learn a bit about the options available for outreach and then have until this weekend or so to pick our top two choices and submit them, so, not much time to pray and contemplate what will take place from April 2 to June 29. Exciting though.

In fact, there is much excitement here. Not just in the fact that we are all in New Zealand and hanging out with many interesting and various people but also in the fact that all of us expect to come away from this experience changed - spiritually, emotionally, personally. Time will provide the answer to many of our questions and provide much excitement also I would expect...

Computer time is short and we actually our pretty busy - well some of that is just hanging out - maybe some more updates later but still trying to find the groove of a schedule.

Matt,
Reading your blog is fun, because it reminds me of how I felt during training. You are with these people that you didn't even know until 4 days ago, and they feel like they've been your friends for so much longer. Time seems to suspend and hours turn to days, and days to weeks...but not in a bad way. Just in the way that you feel comfortable, and it's hard to imagine your life before! Anyway, have fun. Also if you talk to your brother, tell him I said congrats. I assume it's Jeremy and Jamie right? That would be crazy if it was Adam! :)
