Who let me into school again?

So yes...I, too, procrastinate. It's so fun and so much easier now that there's a TON of snow here!!! Oh how glad am I to be in the interior! I have certainly been missing out! So far I've made two snowmen: Constantine and Glen. Constantine was tall, but Glen was a GIANT!!! Over 7ft tall, I assure you, and I had never expended so much energy in getting the middle of the snowman on the bottom before Glen! Unfortunately, I am not in engineering, so Glen ended up falling over sometime in the middle of the night. Sigh, poor Glen. Anyways, I also like to procrastinate by going gallavanting in the snow! There is a mountainous park nearby and I like to go for hike/runs there. So amazingly beautiful! Just for the record, I would like to say that like Melissa, I am a winner. For the next three years of my life, I will be battling for the title of Spoons champion, as well as other championship titles in games such as Crib and Dutch Blitz. Oh how I miss you girls for the grand Dutch Blitz times of Goodness. I have definately introduced the amazing game here, but folk have yet to get really into it...I want to hear more yelling and threats and name calling! It will come soon I'm sure. Actually I am procrastinating right now...Bad news...well for all you unlucky fellow students, I wish ya'll the best of luck in upcoming exams and here are my words of wisdom:

Tests are a CELEBRATION of knowledge!

I TOTALY WON!

WHOOT WHOOT! I guess practice really does make perfect......tonight I melissa Dotto beat 11 year old Javon, 12 year old Jessi and 12 year old Josh at Mario Cart 4 player! Yes I came in FIRST PLACE! and my favorite quote of the day "Well Melissa, we accept defeat.....now what is that you told us about Jesus......The last shall be first...looks like you just tricked your self out of first place in heaven where it really counts" Ahhhhh I LOVE IT!.I believe in my yoputh group that when Kids feel comfterable enough to make fun of me like that it's a good sign, it shows a leval of friendship! Ohh and it means that my kids are understanding Kingdom values.and it's all because of Niontendo 64......(Ok that's a bit of a stretch ......and they just said that to me because that's what I said to them the millions of times I lost to that terrible trio!) Ahh I love my Job! Oh just thought I'd share that little triupmh with you!

For the next 3 days I sahll make it in to an EXTRAVAGENT triumph. I shall describe the battle much more intensly and with a lot more passion, I shall grippingly describle the final sprint to the finish line and the pure joy of victory! This 1 little game of nintendo will be the be all and end all of Epic battles! Because Life is good, And even little successes with a little bit of creativity and passion can turn into life changing adventures!

hahah God Bless!

Winter is here!

I woke up to snow this morning! It is now supposed to snow for the next couple of days!!! :D Even though it is a bit early I thought I would be festive and switch us to Christmas iKaleo today! So Merry Christmas everyone :) Here's a quick pic of me outside my house in Abbotsford. Don't mind the bushman look ;)

For Amber

This post is especially for Amber. It's a lullaby for the season of advent, actually. It's from a friend of mine who's been praying for you. She wants you to know that there is hope.

View the present thro' the promise: Christ will come again.
Trust despite the deep'ning darkness: Christ will come again.
Lift the world above its grieving through your watching and believing
In the hope past faith's conceiving: Christ will come again.

Match the present to the promise: Christ will come again.
Make this hope your guiding premise: Christ will comeagain.
Pattern all your calculating and the world you are creating
To the advent you are waiting: Christ will come again.

Read it through a few times. . .it took me a few minutes to really appreciate what it has to say. View the present through the promise. We love you, Amber.

Are we missing the Messiah?

Hey Guys...well I've been reading the posts and emails of late and it sounds like everyone is feeling alot like me as of late. Down, depressed, useless, dry, hopeless....ring any bells? Anyways, in the midst of my ponderings of life and how I can't fix the world, I've also been thinking about Christmas...its coming you know. Faster than we think...it always comes and goes and by the time I remember its coming, its already gone. So anyways, I'm thinking about Christmas...or more specifically about the Jews. Actually, about the Jews that were and still are anticipating the coming Messiah; the Deliverer; the Hope of the World. You know, we talked about this in class, they thought he'd come down in a blaze of glory-wipe the Romans off the face of the earth and give the Jews everything they wanted. It didn't happen that way. So I was thinking, how many people missed out on the birth of the Messiah? Here he was, the hope of the world, wrapped in swaddling clothes and laying, tiny and helpless in a manger. No white horse, no blaze of glory, no flashing sword...just shepherds, a star, his parents, and a few barn animals. We know he came...for some reason God chose us to understand and to know that the Messiah has come...the hope of the world is here. But many Jew's don't know that. They missed out...they don't see him....they wait...and wait...and wait. They wait for a King that is already here, and they miss it because they refused to look in the most unlikely places.
I guess your all wondering the point of this...I don't really know. I just thought I would share my thoughts with you all. I've been so occupied with worrying about school, and about my brother, and about you guys, and about my friends...I'm caught up in my own world and I guess like the rest of you I've lost hope. Or maybe I've just lost sight of hope. I don't want to spell this all out...believe me its easier for my to type this out than it is to actually try and wrap my school-fried brain around it. But I guess I'm realizing more and more, that maybe the reason I am having a rough time right now is because that is where I'll meet Jesus. I already know him, don't get me wrong, but somewhere in the chaos of school, work and life I can't see to find him. He came to doctor the sick right? We always say that means those that need a savior, which is correct, but what about the sick at heart? Like Amber, like Julie, like me...and like the rest of you out there who just aren't telling us. I know this is kind of a ramble, and its really long, but I can't get this out of my head. I am missing the Messiah. I'm waiting for him to come (and RAPTURE!) and solve my problems in one big dramatic wave...and in the mean time while he solves everyone else's problems, I'll try and fix the small thing. I'm sure I can get my brother's life back on track, we always joke about me being Dr. Bev....i'm afraid this Doctor has taken a leave of absence. So as I wait for him to write his life plan for me in the sky, I miss that he's here right now. He's in the little things...I saw his glory the other day. An awesome sunset that he put out there just for me. I know he did. I finally looked up and saw it, instead of looking down as i trugged through the snow to my car. And even when we can't see him, we have to cling to the hope that he is here. It's the only thing that we really have to hold onto. Today is the first day of Advent...its the day of hope. What does that mean? What would my life look like if i lived it full of hope? I always say i have hope, but do i really? Are we waiting for a King to come, when he is already here?

Ship of Fools.com

So as I was doing research for an essay on the emergent church I came across this crazy website.

www.ship-of-fools.com

The funniest part of it all is in the Mother of all Blunders part. That poor youth pastor, I actaully saw this clip at the Youth Specialities Convention in Sacramento. They showed it to around 5 000 youth workers, funny thing was that that guy was there. And he walked out with a crazy red face.

And don't forget to check out our chances of having a rapture at raptureready.com!!! We are currently at 71.5% chance of having a rapture :)


Anyways ya, check it out, it has some really funny stuff!

Wowsers! Look at This!

Hey! I found a way to post slideshows from Flickr as a post on our Blog! It is pretty simple, doesn't use up any room on Blogger and can be added to and changed afterward. If you want to know how right away, email me. Otherwise I will try to post instructions on the Blog. For now, a little trip into the past...

Where's James?

Well I am finally on this Blog. I have been trying to get on for quite some time now but the invitations just never worked. So you are probably wondering where I have been and what I have been doing, so here it is.

I went to Briercrest last year, 2004/2005, and to be honest, I didn't like it at all. For the most part I think it is because I descovered that I had no drive for any of the programs being offered. So after a disapointing year in Caronport I returned home to work for a guy in my church who ironically hired my brother and my roomate from school as well. Now this company is a little a hard to explain. Basically in just a few short words it is described as this, dirt blowing. Basically they have trucks that use air pressure to spray dirt, mulch, etc. out of a huge long hose.

So that is where I have been working since april and that is what i have been doing up untill now. For the winter however I doing adult day school as well as night school to take some highschool courses that I never took. I am taking calculus, finite math, physics, and chemistry. The reason I am taking all those courses is because I am aiming at getting into flight school, and I guess my gym, history, and georgraphy courses from highschool are not pre-requisites.

So all in all I have enjoyed working throughout the summer, the 65 hour weeks have allowed to visit special people/person every other month or less, and has also helped me save up to pay off my student debt.

Sorry I have been out of touch for sooooooo long, however I am going to try to put a stop to that.

James

Going home

So... as the title says, I'm moving home, so scratch the new addy and put it back to:
Amber Fee
Box 525
Dauphin, MB
R7N 2V3
(204) 638-8437

I'm working something out (hopefully) with the school, Marv's been giving me pointer's, so that I can defer my assignment dates a few months... pray that that works.

Sometimes I Just Can't See It.

I've had enough of this world.

Now don't get scared, I'm not hinting at suicide or anything like it, I'm just simply sick of the pain. Not even my own pain. It's just, so many people are depressed, abused, suicidal, angry, alone. . .the list goes on, and that's just covering my close friends.

And what do I do with it all? I know I can't fix anything, but I long to be able to provide some sort of relief. Some sort of comfort. Where is this hope that's supposed to exist? How do I find it, and how do I help my hurting friends feel it? Where is Jesus in all of this? How do I cast these burdens on Him instead of carrying them for myself? I want to save the world but I know that's not my job.

I know the hope exists. I've caught glimpses of it, heard of its healing powers, but sometimes. . .sometimes I just can't see it.

Action Figure Jesus!

Ok so my roommate has this great action figure of Jesus, and I just had to have a photoshoot with him. Here's what I came up with. He makes great Desktop background and the ultimate worship slide show for your church. Enjoy ;)

Norway!!!

So my sister is at Capenwray in Texas and there is this guy there....
From NORWAY!!! Now normally this wouldn't phase me in the slightest....except my mother has a "feeling". I laughed....NORWAY? Give me a break! yeah right like my sister is going to marry someone from Norway! (i'm laughing right now!) But then again, my sister is a very contrary person, and i almost wouldn't put it passed her. So there, my sister may marry someone from Norway....why am i telling you this? I have no idea...maybe because I think the whole idea is completly ludicrous and there is no way that God would do something that absurd!......Or Would He?

Thoughts on Sesame Street

(Okay, having read the complaint that I posted this question on Kaleo 2's Blog and not this one - thank you Amber! - here it is... I would love to hear your thoughts)

So I was thinking the other day about a talk I heard years ago at a luncheon by Tony Campolo, who went on this rant about Sesame Street. He said, "Sesame Street is the enemy of education." That made me sit up and take notice, since everyone usually thinks of Sesame Street as the guru of education (1-2-3-4-5, 6-7-8-9-10, 11-12 - see? you sang it, didn't you?). Explaining himself to the shocked crowd (except me - I have never been a Sesame Street fan and wouldn't let our kids watch it), Tony said that Sesame Street does such a good job of teaching the alphabet and numbers and other basics that when kids get to the classroom and the letters don't dance and sing and the numbers are just chalk on the board, they don't know what to do with them. The show is too good, too stimulating, like a whole bag of Halloween candy just before supper. Real life is by stark contrast so ordinary that it can't hold the attention of square-eyed kids.

So I'm wondering: Was Kaleo like that? Was it so stimulating an experience that life on the other side just doesn't do it for you? Jen and I talked about this the other day and she commented that maybe you were all so spoon-fed that - though you enjoyed it - it makes it hard now to pick up the spoon yourself. What do you think? And what (if anything) should we do about it?

While you are thinking, enjoy the beauty of God's creation - not so much the sun and waves and rock, but all these little bumps that are his craftsmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for them to do:

- Lighthouse, Ucluelet, Lask Week

iKaleo's New Face LIFT!

Well it has taken a while but I have finally become satisfied with what it looks like. I will still be tweaking it to optimize this new format.


Posting Comments: To post comments now you just hit the number beside the post title (ex. iKaleo's New Face LIFT #).

I hope you all enjoy the new look. I would love to hear your feedback and suggestions :)

Jordan

Bev
p.s-Jordan, are you happy now?

Let the Countdown Begin...

4 DAYS TILL I TURN 20!!!! Yikes, I don't want to be old! Until tomorrow...

Dotto loves life!

Ahh like Kailyn I am loving life right now (despite my recent fight with pneumonia!)

I just came back from a meeting with 4 other youth pastors. were meeting every other monday to discuss our ministries, pray for our kids, share ideas and plan inter-church events. Were planning 3 events a year and all going to the Spark History Maker convention every year together. I Tell ya, it's so amazing! Meeting with other denominations, all wanting the same thing, all bringing our different stregnths and views and working together for JESUS! SOOOO STINKING COOL! AND SOOO MUCH FUN! (it was kinda weird @ the start..........I'm the only girl, the only one not married and the only one not almost thirty....heheh but I'm always up for a challenge!)

I wanna be doing this FOREVER! WORKING FOR JESUS! IN MINISTRY, best thing ever!

I just gotta get used to this whole being poor thing!


oK, JUST WANTED TO SHARE MY EXCITEMENT WITH YOU~!~

So Inspired!


So unlike Jordan, I am having a great life! I am so inspired right now and it's wonderful! I think I am learning to have fun again! Well it's not to say that I didn't have fun at camp, but that's not real life! Anyways, one thing I am inspired to do is do a cross-country ski marathon in January! I miss skiing greatly - yay interior! So some events of my long weekend include a run-in with the local cops (hehe), Harry Potter extravaganza (5 hours later...), cross-city scavenger hunt (who the heck is Kami the Fighting Trout?), and the debut of the wonderful musical The Sound of Music, performed by yours truly and fellow roomie! --- I bet you all wish you were here! ...........Right?

Jordan's Whits End

Sooooooooooooo Jordan has come to his whits end. I have come to the conclusion that I have become everything that I cannot stand: A Bible College Student.

We constantly sit in classes talking about formulation, calculations, explanations of how to do church and be a Christian. We argue with eachother about what is true theology and what is the authentic church. What does the holy spirit do today and which culture is true christian culture. Well, I have come to be whitsend on this! I cannot stand it anymore. We forget about the people, the person sitting next to you on the subway, the mother raising 2 children by herself, the grandfather sitting in a retirement home who has gone through all the major crisis of this century, the child stairing at you with an innocent look in his eyes. We forget about the fact that God doesn't care about formations, calculations, and explanations. We forget about living theology, instead of talking theology. Finally, we forget about the fact that GOD DOES NOT NEED US! As soon as we realize he does not need us, everything we become so passionate about in classees, in dorm discussions, in arguements with an aethiest, really doesn't mean that much. God does not need us, HE WANTS US. This is the living theology we must live out, the fact that we are so gratful that God created us so that we may be with him. We live for God, God does not exist to live for us. Here is my rant on "Being a Bible College Student". Take it for what it's worth.

Time to live theology, and care about the people, this is living for God.

Addy Updates....



Hey Ladies and Gents! I have two requests for you here... 1. What are all of your addy's? I'm sure some of them have changed and I was writting a birthday card and was like... oh! I don't have an addy to send this to! 2. Secondly, it is our dear Kristi Meier's Birthday next week today... I still "owe" her a Kaleo Scavanger Hunt but... to tell you the truth I'm kinda still out of idea's for a scavenger hunt 'prize' so... if any of you have any idea's to give me a start... cuz ya, I'm really out of idea's it seems... that would be awesome NOTE TO KRISTI: DON'T LOOK AT THE COMMENTS, SAVE THE SUPRISE!!!! Thanks for your help y'all! Amber
And seeing as it's funner to have a visual on each blog... here's one of my old favorite pictures of Jordan wearing a wreath of flowers on his head and being awesome... Enjoy!

Meet the New Kaleo Kids!

I ment to post this picture a wile ago. But here's some of the Kaleo 3's girls. Again there a great bunch! I've had a good few weekends getting to know them, they make the Kaleo name proud! I hope were all still remembering to lift these guys up in prayer! And especialy their leaders, Jim, Amanda, Jen and Phil, I'm sure they need and appreciate it!




And seccondly here's some pictures of Ben Conway's "Bye Bye Ben Party" held last week. He moved back to N.Z. We had quite the Canadian Party for him, started off with a night of skating, followed by a game of floor hockey, than Tim Hortons and to top it all off they played LEGO!

Meet Tiny Tim!

Hey Guys! I was just realizing that I needed to introduce you to someone very important in my life... His name is Tiny Tim, he's 16 years old and he is my constant companion. From the time I arrived home after working at Lake Cowichan til today he has stuck through everything with me. Unfortunatly he's not in the greatest shape and I am often scared for his wellbeing... and sometimes for my own as well when I am with him. This summer he burnt out (following in my footsteps!) and for a while I was scared that he would leave me for good and I would loose this great companion I had... but then he came back to me to only get mugged and violated a few days later, it was so sad but with support of some great friends at camp he has started on the road to recovery though he is far from better and the scars from that encounter are still quite painfully visible. This christmas we will be getting him some help and so these scars should soon no longer be visible and I await that day in great excitement.... if any of you haven't got it yet... Tiny Tim is my truck. He's a 1989 Toyota short extend cab and while he is old and very broken down at the moment he has still gotten me straight across westren Canada a few times and for that I am extremely greatful! He has somewhere around 440 000 km on him (yes, he should very well be dead by now but he keeps on kicking, and that's why we've named him Tiny Tim) and he had drive straight across this country a few time (Myles had him in NY for two years adn I've had him out to the island) and he's starting to show it (Dotto's dad basically laughed at me when I showed up at his house)... as you can see by the pictures. I also got broken into this summer (long but funny story) and so he looks especially bad at the moment with no stereo, no speakers and no middle dash! I would really love to put him on a program like Pimp My Ride or some other show of the sorts but I can't seem to find any way to apply for those shows... plus you probably have to be an American... but if any of you know of a show like that and a way to apply I'd love to hear it. Seriously... my truck is the equivalent of any on those shows! Tim would so qualify! Anyways... That's Tiny Tim, and I thought you should all have the pleasure of getting to know him. Take Care!

Snow!!!!



iKal�o The Life Here After















So today we were hit with the wet stuff...
I got up this morning to attempt to get back into my regular routine of morning swims (Andre and Bryce, how I missed you this morning!!!!!) and after reminding myself that I really wanted to get up and try and get back into routine I walked outside and was hit with this! I was one of the first people up at the time... (it was 6:45) and so the whole ground was covered. Instead of chancing an accident on the first sight of snow (like last year!) I grabbed my Cd player and went for a run in the untouched powder, it was amazing. I then grabbed my camara and took some shots to share with you all. If you could pray for me, that I would be able to continue finding reasons to get out of bed before noon (because I'm having trouble just getting out of bed in the morning this year...let alone getting homework done) That would be awesome... I want to beat this depression and I know I can't do it alone, but I also know I haven't asked for help enough and so here is my first attempt to be vulnerable and do that... Thanks guys. Love you lots!

Star Wars Pants

So I came across this site today. They took out certian words in the Star Wars script and replaced it with the word "pants". This is the funniest list ever!

We've got to be able to get some reading on those pants, up or down.

The pants may not look like much, kid, but they've got it where it counts.

I find your lack of pants disturbing.

Many Bobans died to bring us these pants.

These pants contain the ultimate power in the Universe. I suggest we use it.

Han will have those pants down. We've got to give him more time!

General Veers, prepare your pants for a ground assault.

I used to bulls-eye womp rats in my pants back home.

TK-421... Why aren't you in your pants?

Lock the door. And hope they don't have pants.

You are unwise to lower your pants.

She must have hidden the plans in her pants. Send a detachment down to retrieve them. See to it personally Commander.

Governor Tarkin. I recognized your foul pants when I was brought on board.

You look strong enough to pull the pants off a Gundark.

Luke... Help me remove these pants.

Great, Chewie, great. Always thinking with your pants.

That blast came from those pants. That thing's operational!

Luke.....I am your pants.

A tremor in the pants. The last time I felt this was in the presence of my old master.

Don't worry. Chewie and I have gotten into a lot of pants more heavily guarded than this.

Maybe you'd like it back in your pants, your highness.

Luke, search your pants. You know it is true.

Your pants betray you. Your feelings for them are strong. Especially one... Your sister!

Jabba doesn't have time for smugglers who drop their pants at the first sign of an Imperial Cruiser.

Short pants is better than no pants at all.

K's Grand Adventure

Hey ya'll,
Just like to let you know that I'm still in the business of Grand Adventures! Sooooo...if you're ever my way, we shall go on one! So the Adventure today was hiking! And there was snow! And it was fun! One by one my roomies were convinced to come with me even though they all had tons of homework! I must be the worst roomie ever...always stealing everyone away from homework...well the only set back is that my back is feeling it now...it's dumb, because it's been 12 weeks since I hurt it, and it should've only taken 6-8 weeks to heal. bah! It's probably my own fault b/c I apparently don't know what "take it easy" means! Sigh I shall be a big mass of arthritis by the time I'm 30...So I'd better make the most of these next 10 years! Anyways, ta ta for now, hope you're enjoying this beautiful day! (at least it's beautiful in Kamloops...)
Kailyn!

heheh so I was playing poker monday night (a weekly event, I'm good, I've won 3 out of 5 games!) and my friend was taking about her job, working in some stabels. It immediately thought I could do that, that sounds like fun. Than Nate said it was hard work and he didn't think I could do it, so I wanted to do it even more!. So I e-mailed a farm in Ladner the next day, the called me back and I started work on wed. and I worked again today.CRAZZY FAST! It's such hard work, but I love it! It's great to work hard, and freez your but off for 8 dollars a day! and fun people to work with too!

Pray for mee. I'm way too bussy! I'm working at the stabels before and after my nannying job. I come in whenever I want as long as I do 2o hours or so a week, so it's supper flexable! Praise God!

Ok!

Prayer for a Prof at Briercrest

Most of you don't know this teacher, her name is Shantelle Almeida. Last week she was starting to have really bad back pains and went to go see the doctor and found out that she has cancer of the spine. The doctors couldn't operate on them because it was too difficult and the tumors are growing at a rapid rate and the doctors couldn't find where they were coming from. Now she has tumors all in her brain. She is married and has a little girl and things are going well at all, she is on her death bed, all there is is a tiny bit of hope that we are all praying for. Shantelle is slowing slipping away from the world, we need to be praying for her and her family. Shantelle was teaching the TESOL program here and a lot of students were touched by her. Keep the Almeida family in your prayers please. If you want any more information or an update just let me know. Love you guys so much!
Your sister in Christ, Kristi
