Hey peoplee

well ive realized its been like forever since i last posted ! haha . theres alot of new stuff, not enough room for it all haha . well i have been quite the little bussy body latly, and it was nice to have a weekend at home doing nothing with the house to myself this past weekend . i think we all need a little alone time to just relax. although i was doing alottt of homework haha . well friday the youth group hosted the christian radio station here in sudbury, and i must say it was pretty funn ! me and jason had some good random times on there ! lol . like our traffic and weather report & suchh . anywayss , things with me have been pretty good, and sorry for all those wanting to see my reverse kareoke thing too , i made mark take it off haha . it was HORRIBLE !! haha . anyways , i may not be good or like singing , but i sure do love writing songs . so here are a few of my more recent songs i wrote in october .

My Cry - By Mee :) hah


She broke down
fell on her knees
saying this is where it ends
and she layed, she layed it all down
for she knows you are worth all the pain
and she raised her head up and the tears poured out as she sang


Chorus : This is my cry to you father
this is me stripped from my mask
and i know every bruise and tear
only made it worth so much more
now that im here


Into your arms i run
to the father ive never known
risking it all as i give you my heart
and let go of the pain
i kneel at your feet as i humbly sing
these true words from my heart....{chorus}


and though this road
may cause me pain, still i will sing your praise
for you walked this road for me
so here i am walking as i sing out...{chorus}




Home - by me again ! haha


I raise these empty hands to you
as my heart cries out for your love
noone else can mend these hurts
noone else can dry these tears
like you do , like you do


Chorus: i kneel in awe of your glory
amazed that you call me child
even after my sins nailed you there
you wrap me in your arms
and say daughter you are home


every broken heart i felt
all the emptiness inside
you've healed by your blood
the blood you shed for me
and your love is unconditional
even when ive let you down
so daddy im comming home
and forever i will sing ... {chorus}


well yeep, thats pretty much it . i have lots thats been going on , im just really lazy...i mean i like to hang out alot . lol chrissyy .

hope all is well with everyone elsee ,
In Christ,

Hey all !

well summer is over , and i've already finished my first week back to school. yikess ! i misss summer . lol its weird being back in school and doing work again, and not being my lazy self. ahah. plus sometimes i find i get caught up in so much already that i dont spend nearly as much time with God as i did in the summer.

Well im so happy that pretty much everyone is back from their summer adventures, the girls got back from cat lake and they're alive and well haha , elissa got back from camp ,and ariel is back from mexico & galilean. But i had to say goodbye to Steph who is now out in Chicago , Ariel who is leaving tomorrow for Sarnia , Sarah&Bryce who are in saskatchewan(with all those ticks ehh . lol Sarah & Sarah Childs). and finally, one of my hardest goodbyes, to Brittany who is in college in Oakville...and i definatly miss her ! Buuuutt i did get to spend an hour on the phone with her today ...haha coulda been longer , we had like 5 days worth of things to catch up on lol. you know you're close when....haha.

anywayss . were back to the normal youth group , & bible study & church ! and we have some new commers , like KC Miles and her sister Tiffany Miles ! : ) . this year will definatly be an awsome one, and im looking forward to all of it ! I pray that your first week back to your schools, or jobs, or whatever you may be doing , have been going incredibly well !

Im pretty sick right now , i have a sore throat, and a fever , and just all around sick ! haha . so im going to go to bed , but hope you have an amazing week everyone !

In Christ,
alyssa : ) <3

Homee :D

hey everyonee !

well i am officially done for the summer ! no more leaving , im home for good. but i am really missing camp! This week my bestfriend Sarah is down for a week, and then leaving back to camp on sunday . Then Shawna,Vanessa & Melissa are comming home from cat lake and i am SOOOOOO excited ! it has been over 2 months since i have seen them. Hmmmm...whats new in my life ? well i am planning and getting the info for the missions trip my friend KC and I are going on next summer ! we are trying to decide weither to go to Peru or Costa Rica . we will be going with Global Expeditions. and the type of things we would be doing are dramas in the villages, running VBS type programs in some places , going to orphanages and putting on puppet plays and skits for the kids. so it is more of a drama outreach type trip, Sharing God through dramas, and spending time with the people in the villages. i am SOOO excited, and although it will definatly be a change for me to have to be in a different country without all the luxuries of Canada, i am trusting that God will help me to make it through. Plus i have to get a bunch of vaccinations before i go, and for those of you who know me you know needles are one of my worst fears !!! but if it means being able to go on this trip than i will do it ! Also the Kids Program chrissy,mark and i have been planning went amazingly ! we had 18-20 kids the first day, then 25 the next and then the last day it was raining and we do alot of water games, so it gave us a little problem so we werent expecting too many kids , but we ended up with like 19 kids !! . i had so much fun, and i adored all of the kids , they are so awsomee ! and one of them was pretty clingy to me, her name was alishia and she is ADORABLE ! She always wanted to hold my hand and have me sit with her. I was the leader of the younger kids group(5-8yrs) and Ynze was the leader of the older kids group(9-11yrs). and chrissy and i put on a skit every day for them. they were all the same characters, and the kids seemed to love it !

well i better head out , but i hope everyones summer has been INCREDIBLE ! and as school is starting soon i pray that God would give you all (as well as me) the strength to get back into the habit of school, or for some of you Jobs. because it is a big transition from summer to work ! well i hope you all are well !

In Christ,
