I was so plesased to give it a go! my aim is to be able to get back and forth by week 5! i'll let you know how i get on! just heading off to camp fire but thought i'd say a quick hi!

Ever wondered about Wonder?

"There is a fear that Incapacitates us for dealing with God, and there is a fear that pulls us out of our preoccupation with ourselves, our feelings, or our circumstances into a world of wonder. It pulls us out of ourselves into the very action of God. Without wonder, we approach spiritual formation as a self-help project. We employ techniques. We analyze gifts and potentialities. We set goals. We assess progress. Spiritual formation is reduced to cosmetics. Without wonder, the motivational energies in spiritual formation get dominated by anxiety and guilt. Anxiety and guilt restrict; they close us in on ourselves. They isolate us with feelings of inadequacy or unworthiness; they reduce us to ourselves at our worst. Spiritual formation is distorted into moral workaholism or pious athleticism."

BMX

So this weekend I've just finished working the BMX tournament that we have been hosting, It was so cool, I'm so struck at how dedicated these guys are to their sport, it's their religion! Yesterday and today has been so FUN, and so HOT! I love the fact I am getting tan! No more of that ming white! Yesterday kicked off with the 17 and under intermediate then the 18 and over, it was cool then today we had the 17 and under experienced followed by the 18 and over experienced! Highlights for me was getting chatted up by the winner and helping one of the professionals do his laundry! The hot KG who ended up actually helping me do my Laundry! Marcy and I had lots of fun what with the 180's, 360's 540's and all that?!?! And of course picking out the most random things to make the guys feel good! I congratulated one on his nice side burns, Marcy, however took it a step further! Anyways great old weekend had by all! PWC (Paul Clarke) is providing all the volunteers with a gift so when I find out what it is I'll let you know but its fun apparently! Oh I got a load a cool stickers! Cute! Well gotta go see ya's
