Opportunities

A lot has passed but it's so good to look at what God has given me.

Mexico Outreach over Easter break was amazing. In fact it was quite confirming in what I want I am passionate about. I was wondering if going on the Mexico trip would take me out of my comfort zone but in fact I was put into a comfortable place.

My job on the Mexico Outreach trip was to be on Team Barnabas, the encouragement and prayer team. A lot of it was hanging out with the high schoolers and finding out about them. There was even a church that I grew close to. St. Francis was definitely the most outgoing group but also I could see their great community. Each person seemed to want to grow in Christ and their leaders seemed just great. The Barnabas crew is even meeting up with two people from that church next week, I'm so excited.

Next thing is being an Alpha Leader. We already had one meeting and it looks like it is going to be a fun time together. I'm really excited for the retreat we're having this weekend. The biggest thing I'm excited for is the training in the Summer because we'll share our life stories and grow together. I can't wait to have a small group.


Things on my plate:

Summer job at Ojai Valley, Forest Home
Discipleship Group Leader?
Volunteer in the Pomona First Baptist Youth.

I'm so excited.
