Sorry that it’s been a few days since I’ve posted anything.

I’ve come down with a pretty gnarly cold and all my free time has been spent resting.

Last night (Monday) we all went to a staff family, the Goode’s, house for dinner, showers, and team time. It was awesome. I left the Goode’s house to spend the night at the Livingston’s house (another awesome staff couple). They were gracious enough to open their home to my germy self so that I could get a good night’s sleep (which I did).

So I got 9 hours of sleep last night and then have been sleeping the majority of today in a dark office on a mattress. I don’t think I’ve ever been this exhausted in my life. Please pray for MIRACULOUS healing. There is no way I can start the race like this.

Sunday we spent the afternoon at a lake nearby just relaxing and resting. There were some great team funtivities involving a kayak and devouring a large watermelon. I must say that my team is absolutely amazing! We know how to laugh at almost anything!

Some prayer requests:

• Supernatural health and rest (I’ve been praying that I’d feel 110% by Thursday!)

• That I wouldn’t be missing too much while I’m sick and that my team would be able to catch me up quickly.

• For continued bonding and fun with my teammates.

• Homesickness- I really missed not being at Reality on Sunday morning!

• Continued peace in leaving despite all the spiritual warfare going on.
