Pronounced BOM-chia

So, YEC was tonight, my first time ever going, and it was AWESOME! what an incredible event to see so many teenagers coming together to worship a great god, supporting each other as some made the biggest decisions of their lives and loving in unity- the body of christ grew stronger tonight. The speakers were AMAZING! I'm still trying to finagle a way to get out of work and go tomorrow as well. I just watched the boys from lifepoints videos and they got me thinking. Basically it was a chain- one guy asked another to church and that guy asked another, eventually leading to four strong new brothers in Christ. Its fantastic how God chooses to use people, whether its a fourth graders persistant prayers, sitting by the new Buddhist kid on the bus, or your light shining so bright that the lost are reaching out for you. God has big plans. I hope i an honor him by carrying them through.

Brazil is in 12 days. It's finally starting to set in that i will soon be leaving for a different country, so unknown and out of comfort. Im used to being in control and totally on top of my surroundings. Im so pumped to have God speak through me to these people. I already love them. Im willing to break for God- to humble myself since i am no better than these others.
please pray for all involved?

papers & pirates

So Mrs Parris has enlisted her A.P. english troops to write papers elaborating what rhetorical devices Martin Luther King Jr. used in his "I Have a Dream" speech to get across his point that black people are just as rad as white people. Well, i don't want to do that. So, instead i intend to write a paper on the reason pirates would defeat zombies in King's point of view. Enjoy.

King's Influence on the Pirate Society of Arrlington
(refer to facebook picture w/ same caption)

On the great day ofAugust 28, 1968 Martin Luther King Jr. (as opposed to his father mr. sr.) made a speech in washington D.C, the captital of the hypocritical lazy zombie Americans (No not you Mrs. Parris; even though you were probably alive). In his speech he emphasized in pirate terms the importance of weapons of national destruction to blow the heads off of all half living creatures (aka zombie) since thats the only way to exterminate them, as well as educational advances and health care. But really just moreso blowing heads off zombies with a sprinkle of the other boring stuff. Anyways, King had a dream of a land without zombies and strongly felt the pirate society of arrlington could single handedly take out the problem; but must wear striped head wraps for precaution. Also, King really wanted a bell to ring everywhere so he took advantage of that dead guys memorial to ask everyone for on. Preferably one those Coloradions will hear from way over in Vermont. Really King was just paid offby the German Nazi's to distract American zombies while they built another wall or decided to kill off someone else, or something like that. In conclusion, my dad watches the tv too loud.
