First and foremost, I pinky promise I didn't die! I'm still alive and well and VERY VERY busy! Such is the life of a college student, and I love every single minute of it!
Now, onto what I REALLY wanted to write about. I don't remember if I mentioned this yet or not, but my roommate and I have been looking for a church to start attending while at school and we think we may have found one. The man who has been speaking at Blueprint for the last month or so, Jason Garris, is wonderful. He really knows how to reach college students on their level and I always enjoy hearing him speak. Within the last few weeks Christine and I have been visiting Highland Christian Church, where Jason is one of the Pastors and we love it! It is very contemporary and casual and everyone feels welcome, regardless of how they look or how much money they have. It's just a group of people who get together and worship God and it's amazing. There is something new every week, whether it's an extended worship time or a different praise band. I look forward to it every week and find myself the tiniest bit disappointed whenever I have to miss it. It is just a wonderful place to be and worship.
Not only have I found a church, but I am also beginning to get more involved with the campus ministries, Blueprint, in particular. I recently got the assigment of my D-Group, or Discipleship Group, that will meet once a week, do a bible study and just spend time together. I was put into the group with Sarai Gilbert, who is the lovely wife of Marty Gilbert, the faculty advisor. She is very sweet and gentle and I am thrilled to be in her group and get closer to her and the other amazing girls in my group!
I'll try my best to keep everyone updated with everything, what with my insane schedule. Wish me luck!
