LA afternoon

Hello y'all,
It has been a pretty intense morning here in LA. We surveyed some of the social entrepreneurship groups in the MacArthur park area of the city. We are now at the Innerchange office here and researching further contacts and connections in the section of the city.

LA Morning

Good morning. I spent the Night in LA. This morning I went for a run with John. It was really wild it looked like a South American city. All the shops have signs in Spanish and almost everyone is Hispanic. I am piggy backing with the LA team today as I wait for my flight to Kenya tomorrow. It should be pretty intense. I'll let you know how it goes.

California


Hello Everyone,
This is a photo of the front of the Mills house in the LA area. I have been in the Los Angeles area since Wednesday. I flew from JFK airport in New York City in the evening on Tuesday. I stayed with a wonderful family, the Mills, close to the headquarters of CRM and Enterprise International. There we had three intense days of orientation. I had the weekend off. This was nice because Saturday was my birthday. Today I went to church with the couple that is leading the LA internship. I am spending tonight and tomorrow with them and then I will be heading to the Airport for my 36 hours of travel to Kenya.
God has already blessed me so much on this trip. All my flights went perfectly and then I just felt like one of the family with the Mills. For all of my friends from the east coast I want to let you know that there are at least a few Christians in California.

Preparation

Today it hit me. In less than two weeks I will be leaving for Africa. I wonder what the trip will hold for me. I desire to be used of God as I am there, and I also wonder how he will use "there" to shape me. God is truly amazing. The depth of His love for us is impossible to understand. He gave his Son to die so that the people that hated Him could live eternally and be saved from their own wickedness.
It is a anti-climax. The Savior of the world is dead. But here's the catch three days later some women went to the tomb and Jesus wasn't there. He got up and walked.
Jesus bore my sins in his body on the tree and then He came back alive. I am forever in his debt and that is why I am going to Africa, to bring Him Glory
