NZ and me

Hey there all of you that take a peek at my page now and then. Well i have arrived in NZ safly and i am doing good. It took me around 60 hours to get down to Wanaka, the flights all went really well and i enjoyed just sitting there and watching a few movies. When i arrived in Christchurch it was 11AM and i found out that the only bus that goes to wanaka leave at 10:50AM so i ended up staying in the airport for 24 hours, it was quit boaring and also very hard to sleep but i managed ok.
So i finally made it down to Wanaka and then called up james one of my new roomates and he came and picked me up, the house that i am living in is very beutiful and very big as well. we have lots and lots of land around us as well. For you that dont really know anything about Wanaka its super super small town, a very neat town though as right now everyone that lives in this town is a ski bumm. Once the seassons starts and you meet people you will know everyone in the town almost.
As far as the church plant goes, right now were going over our purpose for planting a church here and our goals and ways that we plan on doing it, We are also waiting for the rest of the team to come down for help before we start doing out reaches and such. Coming up this saterday we are getting togeather will all the churches in Wanaka and we are hold a 24 hour prayer time for the city and the people that will be coming into the town this year. So if you wish to join us in that that would be great.
Oh yeah, i also have got a job already, witch is really good b/c some people have been here for 2 months and still do not have jobs and i have only been here for 5 days and already have work, i am starting on the 27th of this month and am working at a spa resort kinda of thing, i will be doing house keeping cleaning jobs.
Thank you all for your prayers and support, i hope all is going very well with you all. lots of love Randall

This pretty much sums it up, when i arrived in NZ i had to wait in the airport
for 23 hours for the next bus to come so i could get down to the town im living in.
Lets just say it was super super boaring.
