My life in pictures

The kitchen, also my morning shift.  My job is to make lunch for the base, which is a busy and exciting task which requires energy and lots of engredients as we are feeding about eighty plus people every day!

Cleaning plastic off of oven racks, gotta love working in the kitchen!

Every Tuesday we have base worship and this week I was playing the violin.  Do you see me?

In the afternoons I work in the hospitality department and this is my team.  We clean, cook, bake, prepare for guests, make get well cards and anything else that helps people know that they are welcome in our house!
Oh and my favorite verse right now is Zephaniah 3:17....it's a good one!

Hey, this is Cassey...remember me?  I'm about five foot eight, with short brown hair that is almost always up in a pony tail.  I'm sorry that it's been so long since I've updated you all!  I will try to do better in the future.  How is everyone doing?  I would love to hear from you, my address is: PO box 162, The Junction NSW 2291, Australia.  I have been here for a grand total of seven months now, which is the longest that I have ever been away from home.  I am currently working in the hospitality department which involves, leading work duties, baking treats, making beds, and any task that makes our guests feel more welcome here.  So, if anyone is planning a trip to Australia, there is always a  place for you here at the YWAM base!  Seriously, come on down, I'll fix up a room for you! I am enjoying what I do here and have some incredible people that I work and live with, basically I am very blessed.

Here is a little recap of the past seven months:
October-March I staffed the 2012-13 Compassion DTS. 
Oct-Dec was lecture phase and Jan-March was outreach in Bangladesh!  This whole experience was super challenging and stretching and I really learned what it meant to be a staff rather than a student, so instead of being poured into, I was the one doing the pouring out.  It was good for me.
After the school I took a trip up to the Gold Coast with three friends and we had an amazing weekend, after that I spent a week in Australia's capital city Canberra, with my friend Marley.  Now I'm all rested up and back to work.  Oh and I am really looking forward to something cool happening in June...Korey is coming to visit me!! :)  Bye for now, Cassey
