Snow in the Snowbowl

Caleb's first snowball

Hello My name is Bradley Andrews and I've been hanging out with the team for this past week. I am the son of Mike and Eileen Andrews.

Today the guys woke and left the Indian Bible College about 8:00 a.m. (Pacific time) to help finish cleaning the camp that we had the VBS. We got to to see some of the kids that we worked with before they left the camp. The guys were really happy to see them. While we were there we swept the cabins out and cleaned them. We then cleaned the boys and girls bathrooms and mopped them. When we we got done cleaning we all left in the same van and headed to a gas station to pick up drinks just for the guys. Vinnie got his coke and everyone else basically got Arizona ice tea. I do not know the difference between Arizona tea and Florida tea. It all taste the same to me.

Anyway the guys got back to the Indian Bible College about an hour later from when we left. We may have set a record time. Then the guys went to the Salvation Army Store (We did this quite a few times today) and raided the donations that were dropped off and bought some nifty clothes and interesting things like a quesedilla maker, hats and other stuff, slide projector screen. We then ate breakfast. Then got back and everyone got ready for this morning service.

We then left the Indian bible College at about 10:30 a.m. and went to a Kinlani Church of the Nazarene. We sang a couple of songs in Navajo. The team did a special and sang Lord I Lift Your Name on High. The sermon was very powerful. It was about Devotions (Psalm 119: 25-32). We then left the church and went back to the Indian Bible College. We then had lunch and had my parents Mike and Eileen and Andrews came over to eat with us. We ate leftovers from the previous meals. Then my parents left to go back to Phoenix but my sister Bethany stayed. Then we started to get ready to go to the snowbowl ski lift.

It took us about a half an hour to get there. We got our tickets and went up the ski lift. We rode in groups of two or three. Boys with boys and girls with girls. I rode with Pastor James and Dan M. It took about a half an hour to get up the ski lift. Faith challenged people to a spitting contest. Caleb dropped his bag but we got it back later. Also, Caleb got to see, touch, play, and throw snow for the first time in his life. We all enjoyed the snow. It was really awesome to see Gods creation from the top of the mountain. We then headed down the mountain. We talked most of the way. When we got down the mountain Pastor James bought us soda.

We then went back to The Indian Bible College and basically everyone chilled out and did laundry. Aleks, Faith, and I went to go shopping. We then ate and people were still doing laundry and started to clean. Daniel M. is collecting bugs and naming them. Everyone now is either packing for the Grand Canyon tomorrow or is playing games.

Well I think that's pretty much what happened today. It was a great day of fun.
Hello to all the people in Boca.
