Whoa, we're halfway there

Today is the last day of November. Christmas is less than a month away and in exactly 13 days the Ambassadors of Holiness will officially become second year cadets. Some say woop woop, others say already?!?

This year, like all others, has come and gone incredibly quickly. We have all grown, learnt much, been challenged by much and judging by the attitudes going around this place at the moment, are all really looking forward to a well deserved holiday! We have all farewelled our mission placement corps families and will spend time together as sessions for remaining Sundays of this month.

As the blog title song continues; "we're halfway there - living on a prayer." (Why don't we sing this song in our churches?) As I look and reflect over the year and ponder the year to come that Bon Jovi song rings in my head - 'living on a prayer', specifically the lines 'take my hand, we'll make it I swear'. I can't help but interpret that phrase as a reminder of why I am here as well as a reassurance that I am never in this alone.
