No I don't hang out with" HOSTILE people" I hang out with the "HOSTEL people"!

*This post is dedicated to my little sisters. They probably don’t realize it but they are a great supporters for me. I have got to share their adoption story with many people. Love you Shrimp and Peanut.*

Okay okay so you caught me…. I kinda, sort of, really like photography. It has a way of freezing time and capturing memories and telling stories. I think that’s pretty incredible. So I’d like to recap my week  and the Hostelers with a couple pictures. Actually 20 to be exact. 

But first the main thing I want to talk about... well more like show you in pictures is the "Hostel guys". If you don't know what it is,The Hostel is one of Khen's ministries. It houses about 40 boys and 20 girls that are all students of Rayburn, where I teach. The students live far away from their families to get a good education at the school. They are respectful kids but are still teenagers that need guidance spiritually and academically. Yes I'm still 19 (till next week) and am still a "teen" myself, but I am doing the best I can to be a good example for the kids. Every night all the kids join for a devotion, which is a great time of sharing and singing(more like screaming at the top of our lungs!). I really enjoying being around this guys and fellow teenagers. Most of them are my drum students which is also a great way to connect with them.Other than that we just love playing guitar and playing some football ("soccer" for all you American folks) together. Its great to build these relationships and call them "my brothers". So below is the Hostel boys and my week in pictures!

Ohhh I almost forgot one thing! Make sure to read the captions of the pictures cause they got some important information that I would never want you to miss out. Okay now you can start scrolling down. GO go GO.

My Hostel Brothers.

You could call this the "dinner table" I guess.

          They all are such models.

Screaming in worship. My favorite time.

Worshiping among the students.

The hostel boys always have a funny sense of humor.
They are weird and goofy and not afraid to show it.

Teaching them the value of TEAMWORK. You push him... I'll trip him!!

This kids got moves.

My first purchases in India were football cleats and jersey.

Woah woah SLOW DOWN SLOW DOWN! You better not be skipping any. Even the captions. 

There you go that’s a better pace.

Notice the kid in the back getting a nice muddy fall.

All ages get to play.

Random kids visited during a drum lesson and had a good time.

We had to move the drums to this corner of an office across the street because the neighbors said we were too loud. I'm totally serious. 

But I cant complain because this is the view out of the drum office window!

Well hope you liked my week in pictures and a little view of what life at the Hostel is like!
