Arrived in South Carolina

I suppose there are no real good times to be gone, but at the same time, I am convinced that god has a plan and a timing in everything.

I am thrilled to hear that all is going so well back home in Twin Falls. I hear that Brad did fantastic, and that we even had a larger than normal attendance for Sunday morning. Woo Hoo!!

As expected, my schedule here in SC is rapid and full. I have been surviving on minimal sleep about 3 to 5 hours a night. Working on homework assignments. (turned in 4 just today) and constantly thinking about my family at both 1119 golden Pheasant AND 204 Eastland Drive North.

I am not too sure how often I will be able to keep an update, but I will do my best.

THINGS TO PRAY ABOUT:
- My computer is having difficulty accessing internet; This is not good since all my homework assignments are posted online. (I am currently on a lobby computer as I write.) Limited access to e-mail as well.
-Pray for my Physical Training Test on Friday October 31st. Push-ups, Sit-up, 2 Mile Run
-Pray for me to continue to lose weight. I don't have to be skinny but I do have to meet Army Standards for my age and height. (26% body fat)
-Pray for our student ministry at Eastside. Sunday School Teacher for the Youth Boys.

Blessings,

-John Martinez
