A Beginning ...

My dad has been telling me for years that I needed to start a blog. Since I'm trying to keep my printed newsletters to one page, I figured this might be a good outlet to share more of what's happening throughout the year for those who might be interested. I'm going to try to keep my posts short, but write more regularly. Here we go!

My new adventure is life in the ministry. It was not what I expected to be called to, but I can't imagine doing anything I would love more. I mostly hang out with college students. Over hazelnut Americanos, Whole Foods' salads, or pancakes I get to hear about what stresses them out, what they're learning about God, and what they dream of doing one day. I can get paid for this? Really? They didn't talk about being a campus missionary during high school career day :)

It's not always easy, but it's worth it. In coming posts, I'll talk more about the moments that make me understand why.
