My take on the weather... Rain, Rain... I thought I left Seattle

It's been pretty consistently rainy here for the past week. I feel like I'm in Seattle sometimes. It's just white all around. It's a little better because I'm not surrounded by concrete, but, still. I don't like rain.
Other than the rain and one other semi-situation in town, things are amazing. Right now I'm subbing at the school. The kids are kinda funny. They like me a lot more than their regular teacher... I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that I don't make them work very hard. Work at the video store is good. It's a little slow, but it's alright. At least I still get free rentals.
The youth group thing is interesting. They call themselves inter-denominational, but it has a very Assembly of God feel, which has caused some problems for some of the other pastors in town. I feel like I have gotten myself in the middle of that a little as I am fairly rooted in one of the churches that is farthest from the youth group in style. So, that's been on my mind a lot lately.

prayer requests:
~rain...
~continued team dynamics
~the kids in town (especially the youth group)

Random fact: I am one of probably 4 real husky fans in town. brutal.

my first Haines youth group trip

I just got back from Anchorage for a convention with the youth group. It was rad to get to know some of the kids a little better. It was a little intense because it was an Assembly of God convention, and that's not usually my style, but it was rad to hang out with the kids for about 36 hours on a bus in the past 5 days.
Now I'm back in Haines and should start working at the video store this week, which should be good.
I absolutely love Haines, and I finally have a house to live in, which is real nice.

Current prayer requests include:
~team dynamics
~the youth group that is not as interdenominational as it wants to sound
~patience with how things are progressing.
