Orientation Week

Good Evening (11:00 am) friends, family, supporters. I thought I would send out a bit of an update on my first week in the internship. The internship started this last wednesday, on that day I woke up at 9:00 am and went all the way through till 3:00 pm the next day (needless to say that night I only got 1.5 hours of sleep that night, as well as the day after). The switch to the 11 pm - 3pm schedule has been an adventure, but it has been lots of fun and really rewarding this far. I only got a total of 6 hours of sleep for the entirety of the first 3 days, that is intense. The last 2 nights have been awesome, even though it seems that I am not sleeping deeply I still have more than enough energy for all the things I need to do.

We just started classes yesterday. We are doing; The Life of David (Clay Edwards), The Book of Daniel (Dale Anderson), Song of Solomon (Alisha Powell). We will have others come up but that is what we have entered into this far. I do class first thing, 4 hours of prayer room, another class, ending the day with group events etc.This is what this week will like at least, it may change quite quickly since it is not a very long internship but that is my typical day.

I have really been able to connect with a lot of people. Relationships & teaching are by far the highlight this far. I have been able to receive teaching, direction, correction and also give direction, correction, support etc. It is great to have a leadership team to submit to as well as people to reach out to. I love having a schedule that I actually have to abide by. The structure has been super helpful to me, I hope that I am able to learn a few tools to apply it to my daily life when I return.

I didn't realize how much I loved home, friends, and family. I really love/enjoy Canada! I can't wait to return, but in the meantime I will focus on the task at hand, and take in all I can; growing in the knowledge of God. I am coming back Canada with more then I had before (Please Pray).

Lastly if you have anything encourage to share please email me at shaun.reimer@gmail.com.

Thank you to all those who gave to make this trip possible. If you are still wanting to give please email me or give funds to Kristi, Shane, Stephanie or Helen (family). Your funds will always be accepted. It would help with my transition at the very least or help pay for the person beside me to continue their internship and or do another. Thanks.
