Gonzaga, and life in between

Since our last post we have had some fun times hanging out with the other teams, as well as prepping for the Gonzaga Conference. We had many fun times hanging out with some people we knew in Coeur d'Alene getting to hang out with them and spend some times playing games of frisbee and seeing a special performance of a skit titled "veseline"





We also had a great time getting to go to a confirmation mass in St Paul's Cathedral. Of course, all the girls took this as an opportunity to dress up from head to toe as you can see from these pictures.

Of course, last weekend we had our Gonzaga conference which was a great success. Not only did the Reach teams have fun putting it on, but everyone else who came also had a great experience, listening to the inspirational words of Courtney Brown, and music provided by The Thirsting. It was a wonderful experience all around, and as you can see from these pictures it was a fun place to be over the weekend.

Singing and Dancing to "Every Move I Make"...how many Reach team members can you spot in this picture?

Unfortunetly, on the drive back from Gonzaga to the center, the tan Astro van ended up getting a flat tire.

Of course, this meant that we had to put on the spare tire, and since it was a van full of women, Fred took the task of getting the spare tire and the tools upon himself. Thankfully, as we were stranded on the side of the road a police man saw us stranded, and was able to come and lend a helping hand.

We had great amounts of fun and blessings as we have continued our year. Thank you for all of those who came to the Gonzaga conference, we enjoyed having you there. And for all of those who lend your support both financially and spiritually in your prayers we are all enternally grateful. All of you allow us to do the work that we do.

May the good Lord bless you as we have been blessed,
The Our Lady of Lourdes Reach Team
