I just finished re-typing the applications for this years missions, all the dates are right, and hopefully all the misspellings or grammar errors are fixed.
This week is the first time that underclassmen have shown some interest in missions, asking for applications, talking to me or trevor and aaron about what we would do in mission, things like that. We have also talked to some teachers about students that would be good in missions and talked to indivuals that the seniors think would do well. But all of that might not matter too much if none of them show up to Lasallion youth tomorrow morning. So far we have had meetings with just me and trevor and also a few with all of the returning missionaries minus Joe Volz.
Surprisingly the application took a quite a bit of time, and effort. I didnt expect it to be that difficult to check all the dates and things. Got a lot done today though.

Porfolio Entry 1
Today we worked on our calendar dates which are due toady. Set up online calandar with google, and started our blogs that will become our journal for our senior projects. At this stage, we are learning how to use this system and doing our planning for our individual projects. The initial idea for my weekly mission preparation is worksheets to be handed out at Lasallian Youth meetings. The worksheets would be anything from useful spanish phrases to examples of the unique mexican prayer style.
When we get the applications and start to select students to go with us on the mission then I can start the real planning on the date of the Retreat between all the schools. Until we have at least an idea of the number of students going then the best i can do is get the worksheets to everyone at the Lasallian meetings. And it seems like Brother Chuck is serious about only taking the people that decide going to the Lasallian Youth meetings is important so maybe i can start thinking about planning for about that many people. Brother also mentioned taking around 15 people this year. Either way, right now the focus is the worksheets.
People that attended last week's Lasallian Youth meeting:
Chance Norton
Trevor Gudde
Kevin Huber
Aaron Braun
Trevor Krasowsky
.... and none of the possible underclassman. Not a very good way to start off the year
