Update time!!

So we've been in Guam for about a week and a half. Getting a better feel for what will be happening. We've gotten connected with several churches here who all want us involved with their youth groups. Also, through Zion church, we'll be working on a teenage anti-alcohol-abuse campaign, which is super exciting. Zion also sponsors Oasis, an addiction recovery program for women. The people at Zion are awesome... they've opened up a ton of resources for us. We've spent the last few days at Zion church working on websites and whatnot. I'm a bit frustrated with the fact that so far we've spent a lot of our outreach sitting in a church office... but hopefully it's all just steps towards getting out there a bit more. The alcohol program is really exciting to me because we have an open door to go into schools to do focus groups and whatnot. Very cool.

Tonight I'll be going to youth group at First Church of God with a few others... just to go and participate.

Tomorrow we're running the whole Saturday night youth program that meets at Zion... it will be youth from about 7 different churches.

I might be leading worship at First Church of God on Sunday morning... the communication with them hasn't been very clear...

So that's where we're at right now!
