Graduated!



On May 14th I graduated from New Tribes Bible institute. The two years at this school has gone by fast. As I look back on my time I am impressed with how God has been growing me to trust Him more and more every day. The two years have been characteristic of God showing me how great and faithful He is and how fallen and frail I am. I already miss the good fellowship I had with fellow students, but I know God will provide a community of believers for each of us where we are going next.
I've talked a lot about going to the New Tribes Training Center in Missouri. Plans have changed slightly. I will be continuing on with New Tribes training but in a different location. I will be going to the training center in Canada instead of the USA location. The place I will be attending is called Emanate, it's the Canadian New Tribes training center. For the most part it is the same training with some minor differences. The class size for this Fall is about 15 students. The training is three semesters in length. This training also has a month of jungle camp which the Missouri location doesn't have, this will be a good way to put into practice a lot of the planning and basic living that will be helpful on the field. I am planning to drive to the training center which is about 40 hours drive from my parents home in Washington. I'm still working out a lot of details of this trip, but I'm excited about this next chapter in my life.


 I'll be back in Washington for June and July. I have plans to be a supervisor at Christian Youth and Action camp in June. I'm excited to be involved in some ministry this summer and look forward to seeing how God uses the time.
