Good 'ole Babson...


The weekend before this one, us interns packed up our bags and headed to Bear Skin Neck at Rockport MA. It's a small little touristy town on the water. Lots of fishing, quaint shops and new age stuff around in that area. So basically, it was perfect for us to set up teams of people doing dream interpretations and spiritual readings(Prophetic words)!

Our fearless leader this weekend was Abbigail Webb who did a steller job arranging everything and working it all out. We spent the first afternoon there talking to people and walking around the area praying. We did get in trouble once though, we had an entertainers license, but unfortunately, we found out when the police busted us, we didn't have written permission on the form to have chairs or our small signs. That meant we had to continue on, sans signs, but it worked out alright anyways.

The place was like a mini-Salem, lots of new-age/witchcraft stores all over the place and everyone we talked to was really open to what we had to say, so that was really neat. It was fairly slow, but the quality of the encounters we had with people were great, lots of favour with them.

That night we went to "Judah's Roar", an evening presented by Eagle and Dove Ministries(www.eagledove.com) in nearby Gloucester (Say: "Glaw-stir" - don't worry, I don't get it either...) where we joined one of their art/dance/prophetic/worship/anything-goes meetings. It was good, I think we all had a lot of fun, even though we were tired from being out in the sun all day.

That night us guys went to our host home, it was really neat, the house was built in 1690, you just don't get that kind of history on the west coast where I live, so I loved it!

The next morning, Dave(Massachusetts), Noah(New York), Jamie(Alberta) and I(British Columbia) went to the beach in the morning, which started out as good innocent fun and ended with Jamie and I having a contest to see who could fit more live crabs in our mouths. Jamie won with 13 and I got a measely 12, I think I'll be able to beat him next time though.

That afternoon it was back to Rockport for some more teams which went well again. Then that evening, we packed up and headed for home!
