Day 45-Just Ask
So…lately the past few days have been pretty dry. I’ve had these feelings of just being down, super sensitive to negative things, and just plain unmotivated to enjoy this last week of project. Then I realize… I really just need to have a talk with God. So I went to the prayer room and was just real with God. I told Him how I felt and that I really wanted to see that He was still working in my...
Day 43-Jesus loves me :)
It seems I like to start my blog off with how good God is…but then what’s so wrong with that? :) I recently went to a concert here in Honolulu (Jaci Velasquez and the Katinas performed ^_^) where we invited our locals to chill and here how Jesus loves them from a local pastor. Though I didn’t think I would get much out of it, this concert really touched me and brought some stuff...

Day 40-Fitting the pieces together...
God’s continuing to do miraculous things on this project. He’s not only taught me so much internally, but has set up so many divine appointments that I know He’s got this whole summer project planned out for me.
The other day while our campus group was doing some surveys, I again was stuck with sharing with a guy. I’m not too sure why God’s been doing this...
Day 37-Post Its
Project is starting to become a lot busier than it has been in the recent weeks. Currently I’ve been following a pattern of sleep- 4 hours, 8 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours… It’s been really draining on me physically and I’m only keeping up because God’s been gracious enough to bless me with strength that is totally not of me.
Yesterday I had to co-lead women’s time...
Day AWESOME!
Okay i’m not really sure what day it is today, but GOD IS SO AWESOME…yet again…as always :) So I’ll be updating the rest of last week but like….I’m sorry I’m just so in awe of how awesome God is right now…like…completely baffled…. like… I just witnessed like 5 miracles tonight… like you can tell how bad my grammar and sentence structure is because i’m so amazed right now. SO…anyways…
So tonight...
Day 25-26
This Wednesday was a wonderful day. We were doing Soularium- a tool used by campus crusade that allows a person to open up and tell their story using pictures. It was a pretty day and I really felt that the Lord was showing me that He was going to use me in a special way that day. We took shifts at the table we reserved in front of a busy area where students usually walked. I was out turning the...
Day 23-24: Living For Eternity
To start off, God has been truly at work this past week. I’ve seen so many things that can never be explained by anything but miracles. God has shown the great and wonderful plan He has for us each day. Right now I can’t pick words to describe how in awe of Him I am. He’s provided so many opportunities to share the gospel to others during outreach, but also so much time to heal...
Day 19-22
The past few days have been pretty awesome yet again. God totally was evident at Thursday night’s FUSE, a weekly meeting for college youth who attend the New Hope Church here in Hawaii. There the pastor spoke about the secret to finding your life partner, your best friends, and your purpose in life. Pretty big promises huh?
He talked about witnesses- those who remembers and has...
Day 18-The Elevator Escapade
Wow…God has been good to our campus team today :) My partner and I went along campus today…not really knowing where to go or who to talk to. After a few rejections, he decided he wanted to go explore this building that had some classrooms in it. He spotted this old school elevator (that literally looked like a normal door) and decided to go to the third floor. When we got to the third...
Days 8-17
So the past week has been pretty hard on me. There’s a huge amount of spiritual warfare that my soul’s been battling- a war that sometimes I think I’m too weak to battle. There are many times where I feel distant from what the Lord has called me to do on this project. The joy seems to be sucked out of every good and amazing thing the Lord has done on this project. There are days...
Day 7-11
So the past few days have been pretty exhausting. I’ve been through 2 pretty emotional womens time (awesome time connecting with the women on my team), finding out that I have a hard time connecting with hyper jr high kids while serving at the church we’re helping out with, and just struggling with some personal issues of mine. Throughout all of that, God’s been sooooo soo good!...

Day 5 & 6
The past few days have been very encouraging :) We went back to HPU again and met about 6 students to talk to and exchange phone numbers with. They were all very sweet and very welcoming. Two people in our group actually shared the Gospel with a few international students! Praise God!
My partner and I also met a local. We were able to hang out with him most of the day yesterday. He took us to...
Day 4
Hawaii Pacific University
Day 4
Today we went and headed to the campus of Hawaii Pacific University- a private University located in central downtown. This is the campus where my group and I will be sharing the gospel and meeting the students. There wasn’t a lot of students walking around because it is finals week of their 1st summer session. Some others in my group got to talk to a few...
Day 3
Today we went with our discipleship groups to prayer walk around the University of Hawaii. We focused on the North side of campus that included the East West buildings(the international students) and the art buildings. Our group really could see the beauty and creativity of God everywhere! The plants were so exotic and the gentle breeze reminded me of how awesome God was as an artist.
We...
