I made it!
Well I've been here in New Hampshire a few days now, it's been pretty busy, getting settled in and going through Orientation but I did find some time here to post.
The first day, thursday, after an early morning and some bus rides, I got to New London by around 3:30 pm so I spent the rest of the afternoon setting up my room and haning out with the interns who were there. I have a pretty nice room, I'll have to throw up some pictures later, I'm sharing it with 3 other guys, from, North Carolina, Michigan and Calgary, so we have a good mix here. Thankfully, it's a big room with plenty of closet space.
There are about 25 interns here from all over the US, 5 from Canada (Two from Calgary and two from Airdrie AB, and myself), two from England and one from scotland. 12 guys and 13 girls, so a pretty even mix.
The second day we had orientation, so we spent pretty much the whole day learning about what we were going to be learning during this trimester. I'm really excited to see how it's all going to turn out, it sounds like it's going to be an amazing first 3 months. That evening we ended it off with some worship and alot of the staff prayed for us and most of us including myself received some amazing words from staff. I received a few good words and now I feel much more free to receive whatever it is that God has for me. Some fears were identified that I hadn't put my finger on yet so it was a really good time for me.
The next day, we slept in and around lunch time went on a tour with Ken Nelson, who I believe will be doing alot of teaching with us, he took us around the New London area to a few small towns and different historic sites to help give us a feel for the area. It was a really good tour, he sure knew alot about the area considering he is originally from Seattle area.
Today we are going to church, leaving in 20ish minutes, so I'm not sure what their church is like, I believe it's called The New London Bridge, I think there's a few hundred people who go there, I guess I'll find out...
After that we have a bunch of free time to do our own thing and then this evening, and like every sunday evening we will be having Internship impartation/devotional where two interns are scheduled to share/impart whatever it is they feel the Lord has shown them and they want to share, so Myself and another guy, Noah, were lucky enough to get this sunday. We haven't had as much time to prepare for it as the rest of the interns will have, but I'm really looking forward to it, I'll share with you after the fact what I will be talking about tonight.
You can pray for me that God will continue moving in me to free me to receive all that he has for me and also for my cough, it is getting better, but it is still there and I think it's about time it's gone.
Thanks for your prayers, they mean alot to me and I'll try to keep updating this and adding photos on a regular basis.

...trimester? Isn't that usually just for pregnant people? Do you have something else to share Dustin?
