Glorieta

Two days have passed in New Mexico! Glorieta has been a wonderful ministry to me and the people who are here. I've enjoyed so many things that have happened. Worship, community group, seminars and so many more. God placed me in a place that I had no idea that it will have an effect on my life. So many things to do here. The last two days I was I've met great people of God who loves God so much and they have been here for so many years because they want to help those who are in need and lost. Not many people who are here are saved but God is working in these people's lives.

I've been touched with the songs and the message of a preacher who incredibly deliver a great sermon. I've seen so many things that have happened here and that God is just at work. Last night we had a great service, people were going to the altar to recommit their lives to Christ, and even some people gave their lives to Christ for the first time. It is so amazing and God is just powerful. These past two days have been exciting for me and I am glad that I am here.

"Independent but depending on God"

So far I am in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and I must say it has been a terrific trip for me. Although sitting in one sit in the air for more that 15 hours is killing in the rear. But safely, I am in the destination that I am in and I owe it all to God. He wanted me to come here and He provided safety and protection. Even guidance. On my way here, I met this guy from Maui, named Alan and he seem to be pretty cool. He got the info for where we are going and I am so excited. God has so many things for me here and I can't believe I am in the States again. Two in a row? God has some amazing things in my life. I love it!

Decisions, Decisions, Decision!

We all live by our decisions that we make everyday. As soon as we open our eyes in the morning our minds make the decision that will determine who we are each day. We wake up and we make so many decisions-either good or bad. We choose to do the right thing or we choose not to do the right thing. We make sure we look good for others that watch us, and we make sure they speak good about us. But some decisions can be difficult to pick. Some are dangerous and some are just plain simple.

Everyday I wake up with a decision to try and make a difference. Either I make a decision to contact my friends or family, or just go with what the day has for me. But really? Does the day have something for me or am I just being silly? Should I choose not to do anything and be bored? Am I choosing to be bored or is it just the day that is boring? I've realized that there are many things to do in this world and they would never run out. I just have to make the right decision and stand and do those things. HMMMM!?!?!? So what are you gonna do? Make that decision now!

Small groups that were created for the reason of getting to know other students from other places. One of the group that I was in had each individual different nationality. Different students from different schools. More often we got to know about each other and had great discussions.



Students from all over the United States worshiping. Over 1900 students were there. Some were saved, others recommitted their lives to serve God. I was one of them. Couldn't have been more blessed on this day! God worked throughout the lives of those who were there. Amazing!

So what is Glorieta? Or what did I do in Glorieta? Well, in my opinion, Glorieta is a beautiful place where I had a wonderful time worshiping God and be with a large group of wonderful Godly people. The name of the ministry was "Baptist Collegiate Ministry" where many students all over the United States came together and had a wonderful time worshiping God and learning more about having a great and better relationship with God.

this is called the "Prayer Garden!" People walk through this place, spend their time praying and hanging out here just being with God. I was walking on this place just spending my time praying for certain things. It is so beautiful!
