My life in Norway
This month has been full of many things
During the first week of September we continued to prepare for the students to come. On September 3rd-4th we went on a staff trip to the mountains where we stayed in a cabin. This was a great time of getting to know each other. All the staff were there including the leadership and their families. Our time away included games, teaching, a movie night, blueberry picking, a mountain hike and of course time to just relax before the students arrived. My favorite day of staff trip was the day of the mountain hike. I didnt participate in that because it was a bit wet. Instead, I spent time with some of the staff families and their children. We picked blueberries together and got to know each other better. It was so much fun! Also, as new staff we were officially welcomed to the team and were prayed over for the coming year.
Prayer Requests
1. Pray for the students that they would seek everything God has for them 2. Pray for me as a staff 3. Pray for the nation of Norway 4. Pray for safety & opportunities as we travel throughout Europe for RISK
The
1st week- DTS Foundations Sept 12- 16th On September 11th & 12th the students started to arrive. It was so exciting to finally meet the students and get to know them. The school officially started on September 12. That night we went to the art studio in town (where the fine art track does their art) and enjoyed worship, intros of the staff and desserts. During the next few days the students learned more of what the year would look like. At the end of the week we went on an overnight hiking trip.
Please continue to keep me in your prayers! Thank you so much! Love Annalisa
My first impressions are this house may not have the biggest rooms, but it's filled with love and lots of lovely people and awesome personalities. After a long summer waiting for the DTS to start, it was nice to finally arrive at the base. I felt really welcomed by everyone right away. I am living the dream here together with these lovely people, and God of course. I feel like I have already gotten so much closer to God, and I can't wait to get even closer. I believe God is going to show me stuff I didn't know about myself, and by that He will also tell me where to go, one day at a time.
