First week in Gladstone

So I have officially finish my first week of major outreach. It has been an amazing last seven days with everything I experienced. Last week was jam packed full of Auslifes. This program is so different to anything I have seen in the States because Queensland allows God to be taught in the schools. It's quite incredible doing a program that introduces foundational values to these kids and also brings in the element of God. It blew me away on how well the kids behaved and how many positive responses we received to what our team was bringing. The best part about it is that all the kids that had some sort of a response to the program are able to be followed up by a person called a Chaplain. Most of the schools in Queensland have Chaplains for extra moral support for the kids and the problems they encounter on a day to day basis. So all the kids that went through Auslife and wanted to know more about God are able to go talk to the Chappies and have someone to continue to build them up. It has been awesome getting to be apart of God's plan during this time. I am looking forward to see what will happen next week and excited to see what God has in store for me.
Hope you all are well.
Nate
