Happy Valentines Day!

 

Hey everyone! I wish you all a very Happy Valentines Day! Just remember JESUS is our TRUE LOVE!!! THE ONE AND ONLY!

I had a great Valentines day which started on Friday! We had a class a party with wonderful treats and a movie! The carnations were delivered to us Friday too! I got a lot from my students and my friends! It was a great surprise! :-) Saturday was game night with the ladies from school! We always have a blast doing that! It is a great time of fellowship with other believers! I just love those ladies they are such an inspiration!

Today was so great I went to an international church in Madrid! So great! It was in English to which is a bonus! I understand the Praise songs and the sermon! You can't beat it. We had a great Valentines day lunch made my Keri @ the house. She is just too sweet. 

Well I hope everyone else had a great day/weekend!

Tomorrow begins the week of craziness. I have started to work out with my friend Laura before school. Which can be a little tiring but it is worth it. It really does give you energy for the day. We are having Pioneer day this week at school which I am so excited about! I will post again soon!

I just want to leave you with this:

"FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE" John 3:16

A visit from MR. LINCOLN

ABE LINCOLN CAME TODAY! THE CLASS LOVED IT! :-)

WOW ITS FEBRUARY!

 

Hey everyone! Here are some pictures! Above is me drinking some Cafe con Leche! LOVE IT! Spain has been so great! I am really loving the work that God is doing here. 

Below is a picture of Laura, Heather and I! Two other teachers from ECA! These girls have been really great friends and I look forward to many more adventures! I am truly blessed to be here and I thank God so much for the friends he gave me here! Everything is for a reason and purpose.

We went out for Tapas and had a great time! Katie was here to visit so we did a lot of sightseeing. It was great!

God has been doing amazing things will helping me raise some more support! I am so thankful! TRUST IN HIM! HE WILL DO IT!
MADRID!

Cuz' the sun is shining! It's a perfect day to be ALIVE! It's a wonderful life!

It's a wonderful life by Natalie Grant. This song has been playing in my head the last couple of days. She is right, THE LORD IS RIGHT, it is a great day to be alive and to worship him! Even though I am in a different country I have been able to worship in a different language it has been great! This past Sunday's service and some others have just been a blessing, singing songs of other languages that ALL PRAISE GOD!
  Another week of school has gone by and it was a great one! I started off Monday morning with giving staff devotions. I was very nervous but in the end it was ok and God's message was heard. It was a four day week this week which was awesome! O and also Laura's birthday (she is the first grade teacher) so lots of fun w/ that to come this weekend! I feel very blessed that God has called me here these six months!
I'm excited to have fun this weekend with my friends as well as await Katie's arrival on thursday the 4th!!! I am so excited!

A sidenote on fundraising:
I am still in need of support. Thanks so much to you all who have given so far you are amazing! I have only received half of the support which means in march I will be out of money. So please continue to pray for me if you can support that is great PRAYERS ARE ALWAYS THE BEST!!!!
Please pray for my class as well!
THANKS MANY BLESSINGS!

First full week over!

Hey everyone!
The first full week of school is over! It went great! A little stressful because I gave a lot of tests this week. More stressful for the kids than for me but they did good! :-) I'm so excited for next week to start its the third quarter, so it will be all fresh and new! Mrs. Brader, or Heather another young teacher from 2nd and 3rd grade will be coming in to teach with me as Miss Kellum their teacher comes back! She just graduated from college and ready to bring in the new style with me! I'm so excited!
I am so excited to have her in the class. We will be splitting up the grades somewhat! So it will be half of the load, which is always good. I just can't wait but lots of planning to do. Oh and I will have to do report cards this weekend to! Oh the joy! :-)
I hope u all are doing well thanks again for all of your support!

My class!

Here are my lovely 4th and 5th graders! We are missing one but they are a great bunch of kids and I love teaching them!

ACSI Conference in Germany

Hey everyone!!!
   I hope you are all enjoying my blog pictures will be coming soon when I have time! Teaching is busy busy busy! Ok so I am going to hopefully go to the ACSI conference in Germany during Spring Break. I would really love to go and learn more about serving the Lord through education. I am in the process of saving money to go there and hopefully will raise enough. Which is the main reason why I'm posting. I am only half way at my goal of 6,000 for the 6 months I'm here. So anyone who feels called to support can either write a check to me and give it to my mom for those of you who know her or can go through my mission agency RCE:

Ok so what you can do is send a check: Make it out to RCE International & put my account #13907
on the memo line. The account number is important don't forget and and they ask that you do NOT write my name on it just the # not sure why hehe.
 Then send it to:

RCE International
PO Box 4528
Wheaton, IL 60189
