So, I will start with a little update from last week. Each week of training is on a specific topic, so last week was on “Bonding.” We spent about 15 hours a day in getting to know one another through various activities and by sharing our testimonies. It is pretty neat to see a diverse group that God has called to Eagle Rock for this time of Discipleship Training School, and how we all began to bond very quickly. We have 26 females and 15 males and have students from Canada, Sweden, Germany, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Korea, and all over the United States. We concluded the week by taking a field trip to Estes Park, CO (about an hour away) to hang out in town and to see the elk. I had a lot of fun, and have posted those pictures for you to see.
It’s now week two of training, and we are definitely back to a more normal schedule. This week’s topic is the “Father Heart of God” and our guest speaker is Jeff Pratt. This morning Jeff used some very powerful movie clips to reiterate what the Father’s heart for us, His children, looks like…….I don’t think there was a dry eye in the classroom after each video. We also started our weekly chores this week, and I am responsible for answering phones and doing some office work – I think I am the only one with secretarial experience, but I am not complaining. I will also have some weekend kitchen duties from time to time, as well as helping with some housekeeping chores.
Since DTS is a school, we do have homework and projects to do, but I will share all that information with you in my next blog update on Thursday or Friday, so you will have something to look forward to.
Also, I know many of you have asked, so here is my mailing address until December 18, 2008.

Beautiful pictures! I know you loved seeing the wolves. Do all those elk just wander around town? I would hate to get in their way :) Looks like you are making some very good friends. We miss you!
Loved reading about your exciting times - what a great experience. You are fortunate to be a part of a wonderful education and in such a beautiful part of our country. I miss speaking with you but I am so happy because YOU are happy. I think of you often.
