Quick Week, Initiation, and New Leadership

I feel bad because I haven't really been keeping everyone up to date on my life...I have been really busy and I don't really feel like spending my spare time writing but I have time now.

The week started off with the staff leaving and all that came with that. They appoint a new student director for the project and they choose new leadership. Brandon McKay was the choice and it was a good one. He is a super solid dude from Arkansas. I got chosen to lead the Manhood Development on Tuesday nights with my buddy Ben from Mizzou. It should be a good challenge for me and a good place to step up in leadership! Basically we plan an event for the guys on project to develop manly characteristics, then speak about it afterwards, then after that go to Breeze Inn. Breeze Inn is an awesome Quik Trip type place with awesome donuts!

Tuesday night is a night I will never forget. I was initiated into the Juneau Men's Project Fraternity by Robert and Jason. It was incredible and I can't give details but I shed some man tears. I felt the overwhelming feeling of being part of something bigger than myself and committing to live the way God intended it. Thats the main thing that has helped me on this trip. Realizing the way God intended men to be and what that looks like. I will never forget that night!!

Overall its been an ok work week. Starting to get to know our co-workers better and developing some relationships with them. Hopefully we will be able to hang out with them outside of work in order to move forward with the relationship and see what they think about church/God. I'm kinda excited to hear about their lives more and more.

Other than that just the normal week schedule...very busy and struggling to stay focused on the mission of the project. I tend to get in the swing of things and lose focus on God. I would appreciate prayer in that! Also thanks so much to my supporters and all the people praying for me!! It means a lot!!
