I have quite the plan change to explain. I will not be going on outreach this coming December, but instead will support staff this school. Most likely, I will end up leading the January school outreach. A couple of the male staff stepped up into outreach staff positions, which is definitely ideal. I have total peace about this switch and am looking forward to getting acquainted with staffing and digging roots down deep with the families on base and with the surrounding Honolulu community. I already met a nice man in the valley (probably in his 80's) while I was on a jog who talked to me about gardening. :) Such a great neighborhood!
The students have been arriving this week and all of them will be here by this evening's end. We have our welcoming day tomorrow (Aloha Day) when we will get to know everyone a bit better, head to the beach and have a BBQ. We have 29 students; 15 girls and 14 guys. The nearly 50/50 ratio hasn't happened in quite a long while at the Honolulu base. Typically the number of girls far outweighs the guys. They are all wonderful and we are so excited to see what God is going to do.
I just wanted to give a little update to keep everyone in the loop. Hope all is well!!!
