I spent the last week in San Fran learning about evangelism and practicing what I learned on the streets. Telling people about Jesus = not actually my strength, so this week was challenging but good to hear about and grow in. Anyhow, I have quite a few good stories, as I was staying in the Tenderloin - the part of town that is occupied by the majority of the city's homeless people (and a tiny bit sketch :) ). I didn't really realize that the weather would be primarily wet and cold there, but it was kind of fun to wear the same things over and over again, and probably good practice for outreach. (The weather reminded me a lot of Portland/ home, but let's be honest, I like PTOWN a lot better :) ). Seeing the Golden Gate Bridge, that one curvy road, and Ghirardelli Square (yum!) was really fun, and I'm so glad I got the chance to spend the week there for sure.
I got back from San Francisco on Friday night, and my parents were here! Cheers!
We had a ton of fun together hiking Montana de Oro (a BEAUTIFUL beach with mountains, cliffs, etc.), walking around downtown San Luis Obispo (a nearby town), playing games at their hotel, walking Pismo Pier, hanging out with my friends here, and just spending time with each other. The weekend went by so fast, but it was a HUGE blessing to get to see them and love them.
I'm working on getting back into the normal routine here this week and looking forward to that. (I may have changed in some areas, but I still love my routine. :) ). Thanks so much for your prayers - here are a few pictures from my week!
