Today was amazing!!! God did so many things and it was so amazing to be a part of something that was bigger than myself. Yesterday was hard when everyone left and I had a very sad day when I was alone, but I got some really good time talking to Jemma and Megan who are interns who are about to finish and be done with their internship. They really helped me and I am so glad that we are friends b/c they are both great girls. So, yesterday was pretty hard and I had a great time of crying and balling my eyes out because I am going to miss the people I love from the bottom of my heart who left me and are at home, but today was a different story. It all started out with an amazing kids club where all the kids were great and we had some super fun games and involvement from kids who regularly sit off and watch. Then after lunch we hit the streets for HOTS and God really came on powerful and amazing ways. We saw legs grow and I saw multiple people I prayed for be blessed by God's healing and by his amazing presence. It was so glorious. Thank you Lord!! I bless Your name!!! And then for the evening we went on a treasure hunt like the people from Bethel in Redding do, and God really pulled all of our words together on the team of 5 people I was on. I got a lot of random things that all combined was a location in Portstewart and we met this guy named Clive and we got to pray and minister God's love to him and let him know how much he was loved even though he seemed a little drunk. I really feel that this place is where I belong and even though I am so sad that I am not around my home family that is so good to me and amazing, these people have really accepted me and surounded me as a family. It is awesome and I feel like its is a home I can live in. Thank you for all or your prayers from at home and I will look foreward to seeing you all in due time. God Bless you all,
Ben

Im glad you are having a good time. Shawn really misses you. He decided to close Rock City until you return. Ask if I can do that Internship Ben. I am dead serious.
What a great life God is giving you. He has blessed both here and there with people who love you and care about your well being. Jean and I are praying for you, trusting that God do much much more than just provide for you. I am askiing Him top raise up a man of God with a vision for the world.
I did my usual look around the sanctuary Sunday night for those people who mean so much to me and are part of God achoring my life in him. You weren't there, but you are where you belong. I am very excited to about what he is doing in your life.
Keep the news coming. God bless you buddy, we'll keep the home fires burning for your return or should that be "we'll keep the jacuzzi warm" California you know.
Lots & lots of love ,
Beau
