A quick overview

Dear......well everyone

So its been quite a while now since i sent out one of those super cool update emails around the world to you all, and making a blog like this is something i have to admitt i have wanted to do for sometime now so..........tadar!!

Im still living here in beautiful French Quebec Canada at the YWAM (Youth with a Mission) base here in the small, and i really mean small town of Dunham. I live here with all the other staff and students, its really amazing living in community like this, your people skills get a real boost and so does your love for those you work with when you live with them to. Iv been here for about 9 months now and ill be here for another 9.

I recently got engaged to Sarah Rowley a very very beautiful French girl who i met during the first 6 months i was here and we plan to get married in June next year. Her sister and brother in-law are 2 of the base directors here and i work with them both, They're something special to.

Sarah and i are about to leave for a long awaited 2 weeks vacation to France where we will meet up with family and friends of both Hers and Mine. We are both SUPER excited for this time we have together! and to see some of our loved ones as well.

Its the off season for me here at the YWAM base, my job here is i staff a school form january through until june, its called a DTS (Decipleship Training School) Its a Rad Young missionary training school! The school i staff is also Arts and Music focused so i get to put my singer songwritter talents to good use for God.
This past school was amazing to staff, for the second half of the school we split into 4 different teams and went to 4 different countries, China, Russia, India, and my team went to Cameroon in Africa. It was yet again another eye opening experience and a life changing and moral changing once. We fed the poor, hung out with the blind, visited those in prison, and loved and evangelized to those around us.

Its been an amazing 9 months and those are just the main points of what God has done with me these past months. I miss you all and I love you all, and THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! to all those who are supporting me financially and in your prayers! they matter so so much here!

Andy
