This tour has been an amazing tour on the road I have had a lot of experiences most people only get to dream of all in 10 weeks! We have been to Boston and did skits on the streets and saw salvations, we also went to New York City, Albany New York and Maine where we saw a moose! There was a lot of incredible ministry and a whole lot of fun!

We have had so much happen to us this tour that it’s hard to pick one thing to talk about, but I’ve finally made up my mind. Of all of the amazing things that happened this tour, this is what meant most to me these 10 weeks. We went to a church that I have been to before when I first joined NLDC. We had a warm welcome and did the service which was a youth emphasis service, but we had some adults there as well.  We had about an hour to do the service so we did and the audience was very receptive. They laughed and cried but most of all they were ministered to. There where a good many who rededicated there life or got saved for the first time! This was such a blessing to us, but not the part I want to focus on.  We went back because the host we had became anytimers. We got to go there again and again and to see those who dedicated there lives praising God and worshipping and the joy and transformation in their lives was more of a blessing than anything else could have been! God rocks!

The bible talks about this in Romans it reads, “If any man turns to Christ he is a new creature.” It also talks about Gods mercy being new every morning! No matter what happens God's love is something that will never change. He is a loving but powerful God, simple yet complex! It’s not hard and doesn’t need to be. As Christians we tend to get in the way instead of helping, we take simple things and make them complicated; I know I was that very Christian, but God has shown me it’s not about me. Do the job we were called to do but allow God to rule in it!

We in New Life take missions trips often and I'm looking forward to going on one in the Winterl. Also this being my last year I have to raise $600 to pay my tuition. Well that’s also exactly how much it costs to go on the mission trip!! The good news is if I raise that $600 once it covers both, so anyone that can help it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for your prayers and hope to see you soon! Be blessed and remember it’s the joy of the Lord that is our strength (Nehemiah 8:10)!
