STRESS RELIEF!!!

I feel sooo calm and relaxed. I didnt even realize how tense i was until stress relief training tonight! We first started with writing about each of our family members(as in Dominican Republic and Liberia). we then commenced in balling them um and throwing them at each other. then it was DANCE PARTY!!! cupid shuffle and all are awesome! it was such a great time but not long enough. We then got to read our papers and i got 6 back from my group. I do not mean to be all about devon, but it was great that people saw me as a great leader! like that just amazed me. it all goes back to our team training this morning. but before that we had focus. This time we got in our family groups and read Matthew 9:33-37 and picked out phrases and words that stood out to us. Mine was the part about being like the child and trusting God. i really have to do that as i go to the field and speak with the children. I need to understand them and show them the way. we then did our team training and it was a lot about trust and then team work as well. we did a trust fall which was a great experience because i have grown because i would once not do it. we then had to find our way through a rope maze as diasbled people. this is where my team found me to be a leader as i listened to ideas and executed the best way! we then lead the blind and were lead using only one word through a jungle gym! we then were taught on leading bible studies, cross cultural orientation, and strengths again! we had to clean up after dinner and that is so much work. and then we had church where we learned about the mark of hospitality. and then stress relief which was awesome. group time now. I missyou all!!!
