"Good Morning Baguio!"

And then we were in Baguio... "Maligayang Pasko!" Merry Christmas everyone and happy New Year! Christmas was lovely and was made especially special thanks to my leaders and their getting presents from our families! (I love you family.) Christmas festivities included French toast, Santa hats, candy canes, ugly Christmas sweater, way to much candy, movies (thank you cable), walking around Baguio, Christmas dinner including a ham prepared in the microwave and pineapple, an internet cafe, and of course the celebration of Jesus's birth. This week my awesome team got the opportunity to teach a DTW (Discipleship Training Week) for the youth of the Blessed Armor of God Church. First time teaching for 2 hours: check. It really was incredible getting to teach them about intimacy with God, passion for God and His plan for us, and personal purpose. They were an inspirational group of passionate kids! I can't wait to see what else God has us do while we are here in Baguio! (It is so beautiful by the way.) Today my day is consisting of being woken up by the drilling in our bathroom, then watching Monsters Inc. (love that movie), McDonald's and their internet (still here by the way), downloading music, talking to people via FaceBook, more music (oh, I've missed you music...) and then maybe some walking around the city. Days off are lovely. Well, I hope you are having a wonderful God-filled day and weekend! God bless! I am getting more and more excited each day and growing closer and closer to God and His heart every day.

Love love love... "It's me, Rachie."

ps. Is five cups of coffee too much for one day? Just wondering.
