Thankful - List

Today I experienced a completely new way of Church. 400 people, a live band and such a good message. One of our jobs was to tell our seat neighbours what we are thankful for looking back at 2014.
I suddenly realised that there are so many things to be happy about and to praise God. This list will never be complete, but I'll try to make it as long as possible over the next few months. I am thankful for:

- My family in Switzerland, especially my parents. They do a lot for me and I guess I have realised that in New Zealand more than I did in Switzerland. (when I first ran out of clean socks.) On top of that they made my dream to come here possible.
- My kiwifamily in Nelson: I often think that it was God's plan to meet them. I had not only a lot of fun with this amazing big family but they made me feel part of them and gave me everything I needed to feel at home.
-All the people I met while I stayed in Nelson, while travelling or now in Christchurch. They all mean a lot to me because especially Kiwipeople taught me to be open and have a nice word on the go for everyone you meet.
- For my friends in Switzerland that haven't forgotten me and still have an open year for me altough I don't write them regularly.
- For the YMCA (Cevi) because I made so good friends there and I can't wait leading my next camp.
- For my safe travels. It isn't self-evident to have the chance to explore such a nice country with two amazing friends. Often when I saw something of an incredible beauty, I was just thankful for it and didn't even try to take a picture.
