Its been a long time....

Hey people,
So I know I haven't written in a long long long long time. So much has happened. Hum, ok I'm in Byron Bay, Australia. I got sick here. The flue is not fun at all. But God is good and I'm much better. I recovered really quickly! I have been playing so much volleyball it's crazy. Yesterday we had a v-ball tourny and that was crazy, I was still weak from the flue so I just take some pics and hung out. So my NZ team isn't sure that we will be going to New Zealand anymore. I really really want to go but we don't know if it will work out. Seems like everything is falling through. I cried yesterday. I can't help but feel disappointed. But I haven't given up I long to go to that country! And I know God will be with us! But it's not u to me it's up to my leader. So yeah, anyway, I've been really homesick. I miss it so much. I know when I go home I'll kick myself and say"Sara why didn't you just enjoy where you were!" well I an enjoying it here but I mean seriously I'm on the other side of the world and I'll I can do is think about how much I would rather be home. Or even in Kona. I don't think I'll ever come back here. Don't get me wrong it's a lovely country, but it's not for me. The beach is really beautiful. But ha, I'm the girl who doesn't like water so yeah, I haven't been in the water yet. Oh well I don't care. Anyway, so this is my update, I'm doing good. I miss home. It's been sort of a down week but I'm sure things will get better. God is my strength and I trust Him to hold me in his hands. He has everything under control and I am blessed to be here. So yeah I'm ok! = )
love and miss everyone,
Sara

Australia

Australia,Australia,Austraia!!!! Welp, I'm here in a town called Manly, it's just a ferry ride away from Sydney. Sydney is big! The beaches are beautiful I like them better than the ones in Kona. It's been cool here. We are learing how to evangelize as a lifestyle. So for example, we met this really cool guy in a hostel the other day and we envited him to go to the zoo with us. He couldn't go but then next day some pf us went and spent the day with him. It was super cool. Today we made cookies and we gave them away. It was fun it was like a little coffee shop, but everything was for free. Yeah so anyway things are going pretty good. I miss home a lot. I think I miss it too much. So yeah, pray that I can focus on where I am and not being home. Anyway I love you all and I hope you had a good new years... Oh yeah and I was in 2007 before you all!!!! So Today we had a free pancake breakfast for backpackers it was really cool. All the people were really appreciative and they all wanted to know why we would use our own money and all. We had really cool conversations. Anyway, I gotta run,
Love,
Sara
