Well, April is flying by.Yesterday the weather reached 82 degrees in Gettysburg. It was a beautiful day. I walked out of the church completely unaware that I was about to walk into summer. Within a few minutes, my homework supplies for the day were moved out of an office and into the gazebo out front.
It's hard to believe that summer is so soon. Gettysburg Master's Commission has only about 3 and a half weeks left before we travel to Armenia. There will be worship festivals, leadership trainings, and relationship building... lots of Jesus-sharing :) It will be a good time. The way the trip has come together was unexpected and even uncomfortable some days... but that's another post-- a good 'hope-filled' one, too! God has good things planned and I am so thankful to be part of it. When May 22nd rolls around, we'll wrap up our first year together and graduate from GMC.
Summer plans are being made and, right now, really in need of some open doors and God's provision.
I'll share those plans a little later once the details come together. :)
Kimmy, Kriston, Caitlyn, and I had a beautiful prayer time this morning. Our time was spent praying for the program, for one another, and for the next month and a half. There was a really incredible sense of support among the four of us as we stood in the middle of the sanctuary. We prayed in agreement with God's perfect plans and thanked him for all He has done in this year-- basking in the truth that it is His and the enemy can't steal that from us. There seemed to be a theme of God equipping and empowering each of us today for the next season. I love when He does that.
It really is an honor to be able to pray over each one of those girls (and an incredible blessing to be prayed for by them). God is really good at bringing teams together. So excited about where God is sending us all after this year-- maybe different directions, definitely on an adventure with Him. Our last 20 minutes were spent spread out across the sanctuary, simply enjoying God's presence and the truth that He enjoys us, too.
Classes end even before April does. That's hard to believe, too. Planning is happening for Gettysburg Master's Commission's 2011-2012 year. I am getting really excited thinking about the students who will come to know Jesus more deeply, be transformed, and released for abundant life and ministry in the year ahead.
I'm especially thankful for the abundant encouragement God is pouring over me this week. Feeling incredibly renewed and ready to boldly move forward. Thank you, Lord.
(Note: This 'little update' is really not that little... but it could have been much, much longer)
