Return to the Mothership: My visit to the States

For two weeks this month, I had the wonderful opportunity to visit the States. One of the biggest shocks of returning home was the cold weather!! I was SO cold. I spent the next few days hanging out with family and friends. I was so happy that I got to spend Easter with my family. It’s the first holiday we all got to celebrate together since Christmas 2008.

The day after Easter, my mom and I got up at 4 am and steered the car towards Las Vegas. Nate and Emily, friends from The Crossing Church, took us in and put us up for a week. It was so wonderful to see my Vegas family again. I had the opportunity to share what I had been doing these past 9 months and say thank you for all of the support I had received. After a fun night of bingo, we left the next day to go back to San Jose. On my last night in San Jose, my parents hosted a dinner for family and friends and I again shared all that I had been up to since leaving in September. The next morning I headed to the airport at 4 in the morning and got on a plane back to Belize. It was SO nice getting to spend some time back home. I thank God for the opportunity and the finances that got me home and back.

 Adventure DTS April 2010

I am so excited about the start of this April DTS. This quarter we are trying a different program called Adventure DTS. It is basically combining the sailing and diving elements of DTS into one school so the students will experience the best of both worlds. This is a bit of an experiment so keep this school in your prayers that things will run smoothly and the students will get what they need from the school. We have spent last week doing staff training and I am just so, so happy with our staff. The trainings have felt fun and natural but also informative and educational. The students came on Tuesday and already we have had a lot of fun!
