Aloha!

The new DTS is off and running! All of the students and DTS staff just returned from Exodus ( a three day camping trip with no toothbrush, deodorant, or a change of clothes with only ramen and oatmeal to eat! It's a great way to get to know each other).

On Tuesday they were told they would be moving locations when really we had a feast waiting for them! We call this feast 'Love Feast'. During Love Feast we have a time of foot washing for all of the DTS students, new staff and mission builders. Base staff washes their feet and prays for them. Just as Jesus washed his disciples feet as an act of serving them we start each quarter doing this as a way of telling them we are here to support and serve them during this time. The foot washing is followed by a time of worship and thanking God for all he has done and is yet to do!

With new staff, mission builders and a new DTS starting this is a very busy time for everyone on base! Please pray that God would give us grace and patience during these next couple of weeks. If you or anyone you know is interested in doing a DTS or mission building please feel free to get in touch with me!

God Bless!
