I have had another great week here! On Wednesday, we were still snowed in and so we had the day off! I did go out in the snow, yes, and even tried to make a snowman.


     Thursday was another day back at the church, although we got to come in later to allow for the ice to melt more. I just had a relaxed day with Southeastern classes, prayer, and I worked on a mailer for Masters promotions. I came home and got to spend some time with my roommates, which is always so much fun. I'm really going to miss living with these girls, it really is a blessing. I love it!


     We opened up Friday with Chapel: Christina spoke about trading our ashes for beauty, and how to give our hurts to God. It was a great message! In leadership that day we started a really cool lesson on Godly friends. It talks about 11 personalities that everyone should have in their circle of friends. I'm really looking forward to finishing it! Later that night, Allie and I went to Walmart to price out food for our missions trip. We were given the privilege of helping to plan the menu: what we will eat, how much it will cost, and who will prepare each meal. It was a lot more work than we thought it would be... but we managed to be under budget and make pretty healthy meals!


     Saturday was another Missions day. We worked on our testimonies again, and acted out some different dramas to do in New York. As it gets closer, I'm beginning to get even more excited. It's going to be an amazing trip; I know God told me to go there and I am excited to plant some seeds.


     On Sunday we had church and meetings with our small group leadership teams. Later that night, we went out to Cracker Barrel to celebrate my "daughter" Tosha's birthday! It was a lot of fun, and really made me think of how much she has grown this year. I feel so honoured to be in her life, and that God has worked through me to disciple her. It's another one of the great things about being here :)


     Monday is my day off- and I really need it! I'm going to sleep in a little, hit the gym, do my laundry of course, and make a Target run with a few of the girls. It's going to be a very busy next few weeks so I'm going to make the most of it tomorrow!
