Ugh. I am so unbelievably awful at finding time to blog. I apologize for this. This blog post is going to be dedicated to giving you guys a  very detailed explanation of what each week generally looks like for me while I am in Alaska. I will also have another blog post this week on how God has been working in my heart. Hope you all enjoy!

Mondays :)
Oh Monday's. On Monday's I get to sleep in and head into work by 12:30, which is SUCH a blessing. It is so nice to be able to catch up on some rest before even starting the week. I work typically until about 5pm. Then I get back to my apartment and my roommate Kiley generally makes dinner for me because I have to be at a meeting called Monday Night live, usually within twenty or so minutes (such a sweetie). At Monday Night live our entire project meets up, we run through what the weekly schedule is going to look like, talk about any details/ concerns we may have, and then have some kind of an activity that challenges us to grow. For example, next week the spiritual discipline team is doing an activity on prayer, which I have been learning so much about this summer. Mondays are also used to make sure that all of our weekly events are focused on the vision of our project. After the activity we generally break into our women and men projects and discus the subject. Finally we all break off into our separate Fellowship Teams, which are Cru team meeting, outreach team, social team and spiritual discipline team. We were each individually placed onto a team back when the staff was here. I was placed onto the Cru team meeting, which has challenged me with helping lead worship and mc'ing a couple of weeks (such a growing experience in itself). By the time all of our meetings are over we all go to bed because it is usually about 11pm.

Tuesday :P
T-T-T-T-T-Tuuuuessday's. On Tuesdays I work bright and early at 8:30 am until 5pm. At 8pm is the weekly cru meeting, which consists of our project and anyone we invite taking part in a worship time and listening to a speaker. The Cru meeting are great ways to get know the people of Juneau in a Christ centered environment. After the Cru meeting the social team always has a fun activity planned afterward (last week was the card game of spoons...yes...things got intense). The activities after Cru allow us to grow our friendships with our co-workers or whoever we invited even more while having a good ol' time. We usually get back about 11pm and all hit the hay.

Wednesday's >:)
My work schedule is the same on Wednesday as Tuesday. Once I get home from work, we have woman hood development, which always consists growth, fun activities, fellowship, and food. Women hood development night is probably one of my favorite nights of the week.

Thursday :{
On Thursdays I start work at 8:30 and usually get out about 1pm. Yes, this means less pay but I love having a couple of hours to use for whatever I want. Thursday nights  are called "action group night", which basically means I get to do crazy, awesome things and have a bible study with my roommates. I love them all so much. Thursdays are SO chill.

Friday ;)
Fridayyy yayyyy no work and it's service day!! On Friday's I go to the youth detention center and pour into the kids there with some of my project mates. Friday nights are generally open for hiking, building relationships or having quality time with the Lord. This Friday night we are having a 12 hour prayer night, which I am so excited about. God has been teaching me so much about prayer.

Saturday :}
Saturday's are outreach day! They always look so different. Saturday's are dedicated to going out and reaching the people of Juneau for Christ in anyway we can. We plan fun activities, go sharing, love on people basically whatever we feel called to. There are so many awesome opportunities to connect with the people of Juneau and share Christs love daily but all of Saturday is specifically dedicated to showing Juneau Christ love. 

Sunday 0:)
Sunday.... church day !! Sunday's are days of rest and days we pour into our churches (we are divided into groups of 8ish) and serve the body in anyway we can. After church somebody from our church family invites us over for lunch.. which is always such a blessing. Sunday afternoons are a time for rest which I have learned to not take for granted, and Sunday nights are ultimate frisbee night.

There you have it! Thats what my weeks look like. We still get our lots of hiking, camping, fishing etc on. I am constantly busy but I love it. Staff left last week so project is officially student lead and we have already really made it our own! Stay tuned for another blog post on what God is teaching me later in the week :) 
Love in Christ,
