Andrew's Turn

In the ThreeSixty house, everything is going good although as children, there are small mistakes, but I pray that God will continue to teach us how to follow his ways and do his will. Concerning school work, last week Laura Harper and Dave Nix demonstrated the great love of Christ to Bullen and me. They both came to help us in writing an essay about the Death of a Salesman. I was disappointed when I got my math exam back and had failed again, it has been challenging to me but I trust God in everything. I thank God so much for Rick and Chad for the encouragement.

This week Dave taught me how to play a song, Amazing Grace How Sweet the Sound. He is a good teacher, he wants me to put guitar lessons in my schedule. On Saturday I went to Dave's house to play guitar. I give glory to God for his great love. This week, as I look to God, I see his love for his children. God is speaking to me this week that, if we stay in the will of God, we get more blessing, but when we get out from the will of God, his blessing disappears from us. I am blessed to learn guitar.

On Thursday, Bullen and I went to see a dermatology doctor for our skin problems. I am so excited for what God is doing through ThreeSixty ministry. I just want to ask anybody who is going to read this blog to pray for this ministry. I know there is no weapon forged against this ministry of God that will prosper. God will continue to provide to this ministry, bless, and send us to the world . Through this ministry, the gospel of the kingdom will be preached to the whole world as the testimony to the Nations.

My father has been sick lately and there is no medical care for him in southern Sudan, however I am so happy that God provided a way for him to go to Kampala Uganda for treatment and God paid for all of his expenses. God is more than good to me. In conclusion, let us pray for others, for the ThreeSixty family, and the board members, God is able to do whatever he wants. He is always with us, he started and he will finish it. May the peace of God Almighty who passes above the human understanding keep our heart and minds in the love of God the father, son, and the Holy spirit.

Mid-Term Exams

This week has been either slam-full or slam-dead. Mid-terms were this week and we were all anticipating the results, but we had to miss some important events as we were studying (the Lifeline Banquet, Bart Box's class on How to Study the Bible and Andrew and Bullen had to miss Secret Church). We are thankful for the slow days so that we could catch up on sleep. Bullen and I got new glasses - thanks so much to Dr. Michael Blackburn at Oak Mountain Eye Care who so graciously provided the eye exam, frames and lens all at no cost.

We all got to draw new chores this week. I am so excited that I did not get bathroom duty again - I have cleaned the toilets since August 2nd. Today I drew the kitchen and I think the floor had more crunck on it than the toilets.

I was able to spend time with Mr. Sciacca, my high school Principal, this past week as we walked and talked and became scattered, smothered and covered. It is great to have people in my life that care about my choices and life decisions, like my momma, Mr. Sciacca and ThreeSixty.

Three Months

It has officially been three months since we moved into the house, you can't tell me that time doesn't fly. This week has been very busy due to mid-term testing. One of the things that I enjoyed doing this week was going to the Basement for the first time. I enjoyed it because it was an overwhelming way to see so many teens get together and worship our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Another thing that I enjoyed was spending time with my mentor, Bill Nelson. I would like to thank God for putting him in my life because it has been a tremendous blessing to have him as my mentor. Finally, the weekend is here and I'm going to spend it at home with my family. I pray that everyone will have a humbling and safe weekend.

God bless
Stephen
