holy: to be set apart

Well, going to the Mall of Asia today didn't work out. I guess there's a color/number system, certain vehicles can't go downtown on certain days. This vehicle we were taking isn't allowed downtown on fridays, so instead we sang alternate lyrics to "I've got a feeling" and made the best of it. After that I mostly read, prayed, and napped. Frank Peretti's 'This Present Darknss', its extremely good, I'm totally wrapped up in it. And now we're going to go out for dinner as team, so I'm off. Goodnight!

fresh baked buns... mmm

It's been a couple days! I've been reading a lot lately, so heading to the internet cafe hasn't been high on my list of priorities. As a team, we're reading through Matthew. We are to have it read by sunday and then I guess we'll discuss and seek some revelation from what we've read. We'll move on to mark after and so on through the gospels. I'm also stuck on my second book about Amy Carmichael. (not sure how to spell her last name) She's this amazing Irish missionary who completely devoted her life to God and to loving on Hindu's especially in India. Wow, her story is inspiring.

Dani and I taught Jonah to the kids yesterday. It was so much fun. I played Jonah while Dani explained the story and one of the instructors interpreted. I got thrown into the water and had a sheet thrown over me to represent getting swallowed by the whale, which this kids thought was pretty funny. Then we all got under the sheet and prayed together, that we would all listen to God's voice (even when he calls us to Ninevah's) Dani did a really good job with them and with the story. They colored pictures of a big fish and a man in the belly after that.

Sooo tomorrow is friday, we are going to the Mall of Asia. Pray for us! We are going to look for an old, run down mosque. We are expecting big things to happen. Pray for us! That we will be bold enough to speak out and lay hands on people and pray. We're asking the Lord for signs and wonders, as well as the salvation of many people! No more putting God in a box. We know his desire is to see 1000 people come to a saving relationship with him tomorrow, and so we're going to ask for it. Why wouldn't we? No more thinking small! We're asking for big things. Ask with us!

You couldn't tell to look at me, but I'm getting darker! Yup, it's true. And I'm not even burned! I got my legs waxed today, which was a huge relief. (mom will be amused haha) It only cost 250 pesos! That's like, a little more than 5 dollars! And she did a great job. I even got a glass of juice out of it :) and it was TASTY!

Well thats all for now... keep praying for me and the team!

love angela
