More information on my internship

Proverbs Chapt. 31

10 A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.

11 Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.

12 She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.

13 She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.

14 She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.

15 She gets up while it is still dark;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her servant girls.

16 She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.

17 She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.

18 She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.

19 In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.

20 She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.

21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.

22 She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.

23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.

24 She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.

25 She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.

26 She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

27 She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.

28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:

29 "Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all."

30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.

31 Give her the reward she has earned,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

This is quite possibly my favorite passage in the Bible. It describes a beautiful Christian woman who lives for God and others. I try to model myself after this woman.

About GTC. I haven't posted much about where and why I'm moving. So, for those of you who might be curious... I'll be moving to Centralia, Washington on September 16th, so next Sunday. I'm super excited. At the internship, I will be taking strenuous Bible courses which I will be receiving Northwest University credits and I will be doing hands on ministry. The group of students will travel to different youth groups preaching, playing worship, and doing human videos. This spring, we will be going on a missions trip to somewhere in Asia.
Something that suprised me was that girls and guys are not supposed to call each other or email each other. It will be different. Not that I email or talk to many guys anyways.
So thats the scoop. Any questions?
