love feast and goodbye!!

Well, I guess this is the last post I have here in Kona! It is hard to imagine that three months just FLEW by and I am out of here in less than two days!

This past weekend our Justice class had a dinner called the Love Feast and our leaders celebrated us graduating from DTS by bring us to a very nice hotel in Kona and had a brunch waiting there for us! So we all dressed up real nice and went there on Saturday morning and had the best meal ever: REAL FOOD! Not the cafeteria food we normally have! It was so much fun and everyone ate until they were stuffed! We even smuggled some cereal for the outreach trip! Afterward we had the entire morning and afternoon to hang out on the hotel's beach, pool, or where ever we wanted! Some girls had fun taking pictures around the hotel and others swam in the pool. It was so much fun and we were spoiled so much, but what an accomplishment to have completed our DTS.

As for this week, we have been just doing outreach preparation: packing, cleaning, stripping down our classroom, and saying final goodbyes! It has actually been really hard because some of these people I am not going to see ever again in my life. Hopefully God is good and we all are able to meet up again in heaven someday! But for now it is sad.

Tomorrow morning at 10am I have to have all my stuff packed that I am keeping in storage here in Kona while I am on outreach, and I'm going to be living out of my outreach bag for the next two days! But we have final dorm cleaning and make sure we have everything for our outreach and finally, say goodbye!

I just wanted to thank you guys for being so faithful and reading my blog. Through the good times and bad, you have been so supportive and I cannot thank you guys enough for all your prayers and support! God has deeply blessed me through you guys! Thank you a million times over! I'll try my hardest to keep up once in a while during my outreach if I have access to an internet cafe, but I can't make any promises! Either way, I'll be seeing you all after June 2!

God Bless you all and HAZAK!

  3. Hi there Kelsi, you are now on your way to Morocco...waiting the long layover in Frankfurt. I am in continual prayer for you. You have so much waiting and sitting to get to Morocco! And probably serious jetlag. I am excited for you to get settled into the country even though it sounds like you won't be settling down in one spot for long. I love you! Have an asweome time seeing the world! <3
