In the morning I woke up at 6:30 to be at the church for 8 :) these early mornings are not nice :) when i got to church in perrysburg I then went to SouthToledo campus to move a bunch of food boxes around to sort them out :P Then after that I went to a different campus to collect some clothes people had donated and ship them off to perrysburg :) Then my working bit was over and I sat and had A meeting with Bill and Stephen in subway.. Which was ace to catch up and to meet Stephen. At night time Criz (an intern from Honduras) rang me since he has now arrived in Ohio and asked if i would like to go to Starbucks, so i met him and some friends there which was awesome!!! :) and then they asked if we wanted to go to a Youth meeting with them which was so good!!

Sunday - Church day :)

Today i woke up at 5:30...... That just about explains my mood for the day ;) haha!!! Im just kidding :P I powered through and still haven't slept but i will go to bed after this blog :) I'm aiming for 9pm :)
It was a really good day today :) It got a bit repetitive as we did 3 church services today and 2 Yesterday but never the less the people are great and I would defiantly do it again and again!!! Especially when I get more involved with it!
After the church services we slowly and safely got home and ate lunch/dinner! :) which was lovely :P

1st Church services :)

Hi everyone :) I'm just doing a late night blog just before I go to sleep.... (so if this doesnt make any sense to anyone ... Its because i'm sleepy :) HAHAHA!!!!)
Today I had another nice lie in and was very chilled until 2pm. At 2 we went to church because Marge needed to set up for the church services which started at 4pm. Whilst Marge was setting up I decided to go play some table tennis with myself which was amusing, I has some weird shots going on there :D.
 After that time flew by and it was time for the first church service. It was a really cool service with them playing the Uprising by Muse and then also they did an Eminem song too... I have never heard a church do none christian songs before :P But these songs fitted in sooo well. It was all about courage :)
After the first service it was time for a break so I got to chill out with the band back stage which was ace!!! They are amazing people who are full of Gods grace. They was so relaxed considering they had to perform to loads of people, if it was me I would certainly not be relaxed :P After the second service I said bye to the music team until tomorrow and then went to Marge so that she could take me home :)
When we got home we started to watch the baseball game whilst eating magnums :) mmmmmmm but then we both got really tired and that is when we decided to call it a night!!!
Night night God bless everyone!!!
Love you all!!!

Wednesday 25th October.

Hello Everybody!!! :)
You don't know how tempted I was to not do a blog tonight because I am that jet lagged!!! :O hahaha!!!
Today again was a very relaxed but jam packed day with lots of stuff for me to do. Quite a warm day too!! it was around 22 degrees!! :O :D
I woke up at 9 am, very tired (as you can imagine), and got ready to go to the Perrysburg campus (The main campus). After I got ready Marge, my house mum, had picked up her grandson Dustin as she looks after him every Wednesday! He is the cutest little boy ever but he is very shy with me, he just needs to get to know me a bit better to realize that I am just as childish as he is :) haha!!!
After I met Dustin, Marge dropped me off at church and I found out that I was going with John to see what kind of outreach they do. There out reach is PHENOMENAL!!! :D They have a soup kitchen but they call it something else because it doesn't just serve soup :P, They have a free grocery store thing where people go in and shop for free food, they have a food bank and a repair car shop which repairs cars for single mums who cant afford to repair them. They are all the things which I saw today which was pretty sweet!! :)
For Lunch I had this AMAZING chicken burger!! it was so juicy!! :D haha!!! loved it!! and also I had curly fries which I have never had before :P They look like pigs tails ;)
Tonight at 6 we went to a members celebration where they celebrate being a member (obviously) which is cool!! they had like a normal church service but with lots of different speakers. They also had these brownies!!!! :O MAN my mouth is craving for some right now they was that good!!!! :)
Then after the meeting tonight we watched baseball on the television which was nice because I don't know much about American sports, so Marge explained to me about it and I understand it a bit better :P

I know I have only been here a few days but I can already feel my accent is changing because people don't understand so I am changing it a bit for them to understand!!! :O sorry you Brits!!! HAHA!!!

So... Yeah all in all I am having an amazing time and I cant wait to find out what they have in store for me this year
Love you all!!!
God bless!!!

Traveling down to London

Hello everyone!!! :) Today Im traveling down to London which is sooo exciting... Yet boring because I'm stuck in a car for 6 hours and the radio is broken :/ but luckily I got my family to talk to :)

I had my last church service in Jubilee today and I really enjoyed it, It was an amazing service!!! Then I said my goodbyes and went home to eat lasagne!!!!! :O I LOVE LASAGNE!!! I could eat it all day ;) haha!!! Then afterwards we had some month early birthday cake since we wont be able to celebrate it together :D

One more sleep until I start my travel to Ohio :D

Hello everyone!!! This is my first ever blog and it will take a lot of getting used to!!! Haha!!!
So... I am going to try and blog everyday to keep you all updated with what I am doing in my day to day life in Ohio :) I'm going to upload photos... if I figure out how :) haha!!!

Well I am really really excited at the moment and I am all packed :) The packing was actually a lot easier than what I expected, it must of only taken me 20 mins to do with my parents help, so very quick indeed! It is all getting a bit nerve-racking but i will cope with Gods help :) I will miss all my dear friends in England so much but I will see you all at Christmas!

At the moment I am just sat on the sofa with my mum, dad, Loren, Janine and Paul watching the television having a nice family night in before I go!!! :) it is very relaxing :P I can't believe I only have one more sleep until I set off on my journey with God!!!!! I cannot wait to learn so much more about who God is and what potential he has for me :) God is good and I thank him for everything I have ever done or I will do, everyone I have ever met or will meet and for being with me every step of the way!

Love you all
God bless
Casey :)
