I am Alive

I am still alive. Crazy how fast the weeks have gone by. I am having so much fun at school and enjoying every class. I am reminded everyday of why the Lord has brought me here. I have always wanted to be in ministry and knew that I would, yet this training I am getting now is so worth it.

This last week I have learned so much on just establishing ministries/programs in the church. It has been so rewarding going to this particular class and learning how to establish long term or goals for ministry whether it be for the youth, adults or children.

One other thing if you have time please check out this website: Chrisskinner.org. Chris has become such a good friend of mine and we have been tracking through this first semester together. He is a great inspiration to me and my family. God is using him in so many ways and I am blessed to know him. So please check his website and his gallery and be blessed.

Again thanks for your prayers. We love you.

This One is For You

For those of you out there who go home everyday and run to your computer to see if I have posted a new blog, this one is for you. Yes I know that it has been a couple weeks and probably longer then that, but I have been busy with all the new aspects of my life.

School has been so much fun and challenging. I have enjoyed school so much and am looking forward to every new class. Greek has been so much fun! LOL. If you think I am joking, I will let you decide. Just to let you know though, my professor has been known and feared by many students. At one point before the semester one student told me to take a different teacher because he was extremely hard. With that important info I thought, "I wanted a challenge and the very reason I came to DTS was because of the school's fantastic teachers." So far so good. As for all my other classes, they are also wonderful.

Work has been much better, too. I think that I have figured out the coffee world. Although every once in a while someone comes in and really tests my knowledge or speciality in coffee making. One great aspect about the job is the free drinks! Just because of that I may consider a full time career in Starbucks. LOL. Although God has bigger and better plans.

Thank you to those out there that pray for all of us everyday. We love you very much. Please pray for us if you haven't been. Please pray for me and my classes as I work to make quality papers. Pray for my family that we would have plenty of time together. Pray that God would lead me to a wonderful ministry/internship. Pray that my family and I would glorify Him in such a way that would bring Him the honor that He deserves.
