Hello everyone! Sorry it's been a while since I've added some more pics! Hopefully I'll get some more updated and have another newsletter by next month. This has been a busy month and the next one will be busy in the beginning!We went to the Coromandel yesterday and these are some pics of us going to Hot Water Beach (where you go at low tide and dig a hole in the sand and a bunch of hot water

This past weekend our team took a 4 hr. trip to Napier, New Zealand to see the other AIM team one last time. They are done with their field time (as they were in the class before us) and are leaving in early November. They wanted us to see some of the work they've been doing and the place where they spent their mission time.We got to stay with some host families in the church, do some service

We held a lock-in at our church for all the teens and young-adults in the north island (or at least close around our area.) We ended up having youth come from Auckland, Napier, Rotorua, and 1 girl even came and was visiting from Australia. It was neat to see these young christians from different areas and share with each other. We also had some worship time and a lesson together. Some

Ladies' Challenge this yr. was held in Rotorua. It was like a weekend-long camp for all the women in the north island, and we even had one come from Nelson in the South Island. It was a great time of refreshment and really neat to meet christians from all different areas! It was very encouraging to get to see some other missionaries from different parts as well and to exchange some ideas and

Rotorua is about 45 min. away from where we live. For those of you who have been there, you know that it has a quite unpleasant smell of sulfur as you approach and go through some of the town! This is a geothermal area, with natural hot springs and boiling mud. We also got to go through a redwood forest and a neat park there as well. Ladies' Challenge was held in Rotorua, so we went up early to

This was a woman's event we held at our church building that our team spent HEAPS of time organizing and putting together. All the ladies' brought different mexican dishes and we provided some and made a mexican drink and had music and table decorations and did some fun facts and spanish word games and a mexican dance. We even had a pinata. It was tons of fun! It was quite a change for NZ because

Everyone from the church was invited to go and we rented out three courts. We had sport, fun, and fellowship! Here are some pics from our time there!

We had a bunch of teen girls come over to hang out on a Friday night and we played games, got to fellowship, and watched a nooma video (really good little spiritual videos if you haven't seen them. You can see some online. They are about 10 min. long).

Everyone got to "guess" at what they were going to eat but it was NEVER what you expected. Really fun way to interact and get others involved. Everyone got to dress as their favourite food! Here are some pics! Sry if you have gotten an update a lot on this one...I keep trying to fix it and think my internet is going funny!

Well, sorry it has been a while since I have written an update! I think our whole team is starting to work on our monthly newsletters so hopefully those will be out fairly soon as well! I also don't want to put to much on here because then our newsletters are really just a repeat! It's been nice having a blog page, though, so I can show family and friends back home some pictures without having to

Well, I climbed The Mount today! I went with 3 of the Napier Aimers to the top of Mt. Maunganui (an old inactive volcano here next to the beach). It took us about a a half hour roughly to climb up it and probably about as long to climb down. Me and one other girl climbed down through the bush on a trail and then down the grassy hill on the other side where a bunch of sheep reside. All together, I

We have been here about a week and a half...getting close to two weeks now! We have a house and most all our furnishings! We have a view that looks down over the city and you can see the ocean in the far distance. It's very

BE FLEXIBLE...it's a motto we are taught over and over in AIM! And we have learned to be just that!So! Our NZ team is currently residing in a japanese style hotel in L.A., California! Our plane left at 10:30 p.m. last night and we got 400 miles towards Australia when the monitors stopped working in the plane (don't know what that means...just not good for the pilot!) and we had to turn back.
