Hello Friends and Family! I safely arrived to NZ without much fuss, other than the four plane rides and 30 hrs of traveling. I had to fly from Chicago to L.A. to Raratonga to Auckland to Christchuch. But it's easy to get "back in the saddle" again and continue this journey. Most of you know I was working in Indiana doing web contract work for a few months, and that went well. Now, its time to begin serving the Lord more directly here in NZ as a teacher and DTS staff member.
The reason I returned now, before Christmas, is because I was asked to be a guest speaker for the Backpacker's DTS, to teach on the topic of relationships and communication. Weeks of preparation has been put into this so I'm excited to see what this week holds. Please PRAY for God's grace upon me as this will be the longest I've taught on this subject.
Then I will have one week before the new year to get ready to be a DTS staff member (again) on the Around the World in 80 Days DTS. We have forty students arriving from all over the world to join our program, and we're excited that over half of our Western students are European, as the tendency is to have mostly Americans (not a bad thing! we just like diversity!)
Well, that's about it for now. I'm praising God I have my own room too! It is such a blessing! Please let me know how I can pray for you.
In His service, Eric
