starting back

(this is a sunrise outside Aspen Manor--the house I live in. isn't it beautiful!?)
Alright, we're back into the routine again here at Glen Eyrie. It was nice having a break, but now it's time to buckle down...won't be long before I head south to the beautiful country of Argentina.
These next 4 months are going to be busy, but very exciting! We are starting a Missions Perspectives course that my team will be attending every Monday night. It's 3 hours long, so I'll definitely have to hit up 7-11 for my caffeine fix before class. :)
Tomorrow night (Sunday) I start my Spanish class...I can't wait! I was going to take it at a community college, but it was too expensive. I ended up finding a class that meets at a church every Sunday night that is taught be retired missionaries from South America...how crazy is that!? Yeah, so I'm totally excited! I bought a Spanish/English dictionary, and will buy another book that they suggest for the class. Hopefully this will enable me to be more effective this summer when I'm in Argentina.
If you think about it, please be praying for my friend Arlen. He was in a skiing accident...he ran into a tree and broke his back, 7 ribs, punctured a lung, and bruised many of his internal organs (kindney, spleen, liver). He had internal bleeding, which they were able to control after he was helicopterd to a hospital in Denver. He had surgery on Thursday night and is doing well.

I'm going to try and update my blog more often then I have. If I haven't heard from you in a while please send me an email @ sheryle10@yahoo.com

much love!

2006!

Well I can't believe it's a new year! I just got back from my Christmas break...went home to Chicago to see all my friends and family. It was sooo nice being back, however, I did miss the mountains! :)
It's hard to believe that I'm halfway through the training here in CO. I did find out that I am going to South America for the international portion of Advance--I'll be in Argentina!!! I'll be sure to keep everyone posted as I find out more details as to how I will be serving down there.
