Day 3 Cont.

Ok so i was reading my earlier post and i realized it kinda stinks! but i was trying to write and i was almost running late for prayer and some of my fellow missionaries were trying to talk to me. So any who i want to give a better update on what is happening.

Monday i arrived at the Atlanta airport with sara and nick (the 2others from the st. pete area!) and we met up with a whole group of the missionaries. we packed 12 people and 12 peoples luggage for a year into a 15 passanger van (that was loads of fun!) We arrived at Covecrest in time for dinner and some prayer. We got settled into our houses and we stayed up late to get to know eachother!

Tuesday we got up at 7:15 for our first holy hour, morning prayer and mass! Us ladies left for a lake house for an overnight girls retreat (we left to boys to do camp work!) we got to go really deep in prayer and we opened up about a ton of girly stuff, and let me tell you I LOVE my new sisters!!!!
The girls i'm going to Mesa with are wonderful and we all get along together very well! Plus the Germany girls and the Covecrest girls are amazing as well and we have all already talked about what will happen when we are done with formation.

Wednesday We finished our Woman's retreat and came home for dinner and night prayer. Tomorrow the Men are leaving for a hiking trip and us ladiesare gonna run the camp!!!!

So i just wanted to let everyone know just how much all the prayers have helped so far. I'm sure this trip is going to be truly blessed and already has been by the Lord. The Holy Spirit is moving in so many ways already in all of our lives
