Bad case of the Mondays

Could have been better. Yes. There were moments that I feel the devil creeped in and was making me feel like I hate leadership, I can't be a leader, and I'm not cut out for all this organizing. Yeah.
So started out with base intercession, which was nice, and yesterday when I first felt like not being around people and in the end after our braai for Kimberly I was so happy to have kind people and roomates around. I am reading the picture book style of the Ragamuffin Gospel. So started my morning with that which was pleasant. However the day didn't seem to match that feeling. Oh I was even woken up by the rain so so hard on our roof in the middle of the night. It was nuts and has been on adn off like that all day.
Oh yesterday I also had a run up Boyes Drive, then did some sprints. My knee was feeling a little like it's about to just move wrong and be in pain, but it hasn't happened. I pray it's going to not give. I went out to coffee with my friend/neighbor Thomas and had just the most interesting conversations. What a brilliant man!
So today, yes we left early from base worship to get to see Mario at his Woodlands school to work with them. The sports DTS team adn I. Which by the way, I feeling like the facilitator am by far the oldest. THe leaders like Zach and faith are about 20 and 21. SO we get there and Mario's not there. The few staff and principle seemed like they don't really work with Mario and his few boys and don't know what he's been planned. It was really confusing and this class came itno this room and the 2 boys that help Mario who are missing teeth and x gangsters about age 20 didn't know what to do either. The students said their work is done, so we took the 1 soccer and rugby ball we had to their 'field' of trash to play. Some did some didn't wasn't really organized. We just were directed in what to do and be involved with. Mario FINALLY showed like 2 hours later apologizing that he has this and that and preparing the food for the academy and supporters coming by later to take through. He said the principle doesn't really leave the office, so do what ministries sort of things you feel you want to do. I felt so under pressure because the team just wants to interact and be involved! Zach seemed frustrated and i felt like the brunt, only TRYING to help the two. Anyways, by the time the 2nd class came we worked on their work with them, and this classes assignment was not in Afrikaans so we could go through it with them. It was nice to sit there with tehm and these adorable boys trying to pronounce words and you can just see them thinking these scenario's out. I guess Zach ended up with these boys and one's name was Caleb and he said oh like inthe Bible and ended up telling this story and it broke out in this lil time to speak of Jesus and they loved it. One talked about how his family's Muslim and he doesn't wnat to be. SO clearly half the kids are at least Muslim. Anyways, we left around 1 and at least Zach talked with Mario and I thin kwe're only designating Mondays for that place, but just needed a better understanding. THe actual academy is after school. I just felt so bad, and there needs to be more structure, yet even those few helpers had no idea what was goin on it's hard. Hopefully we can help distribute the shoes there soon though. Poor kids. I just feel bit of pressure from Arun throwing them at me to find them sports minstires. I personally haven't even done an 'outreach' like normal DTS so I don't knwo what to expect, I just trying ot link what i know to them. I'm trying.
Then I was to work on the huts for our Jubilee decorations and this and that wasn't bough to work the paper machet on and so had to cancel the decorating party. Oh but other things have come out of it. Gathered newspapers from local stores and cafes, went for a run in the busting wind, now trying to get some emailing and connecting done. Meetings tomorrow about Jubilee, going to focus on buying supplies and building the huts tomorrow, and hopefully I get a chacne to even play indoor soccer. My team has a bye tonight. Oh I have pictures on facebook from our game Friday. I had a wonderful friend Izak come and watcth and he had this brand new camera. Was so col! Well, thank you all, love you and goodnight!
