Notice how everyone is wearing an apron except for me

If you haven't caught on - my session's name is "Prayer Warriors" and there are 10 people in my session.
2 of my session mates are based in Auckland, and 8 of us are based at the college.
It has now been 3 weeks since I started college and I am enjoying it so much.
My favourite classes have been "Interpreting the Bible for ministry", which is just so interesting and has so changed the way I look at the Bible, and the other class I love is "Discovering the old testament" because I love history.
I haven't started prison ministry or Religious education in schools yet so I'm sure I will enjoy that as well - I start prison ministry this Sunday afternoon so that will be interesting.
My session has been having a blast getting to know one another and having fun together. We had our first spiritual day (which is a day focused on worship) yesterday (Thursday) and we had a great time setting up and cleaning up for the community lunch - as you can see from the photos.
I really want to say I am homesick but I still haven't got to that stage yet - I'm just having such a blast.
However, in saying that, I do miss my friends at the Faith Factory and wish they could be part of the fun.
