1st week!

My first week is officially over! It was an awesome week! My team did a fantastic job and I'm not just saying that lol! Our bosses told us multiple times that we were doing way better than expected. We had evaluations yesterday and they told us that most people get mostly 3's on their first week which means that they need to improve on several different things. I got 4's and 5's! 4's mean that we did exactly what they were expecting and 5's mean that we went above and beyond. Most of our team did just as well. 

I have had several things happen during this week that has been very encouraging! First of all, I got to spend the week with one of my pastor's from back at home. I had never really met him before so it was great to actually get to know him. Well not only did I get to know him but by the end of the week, he offered me a leadership position on our college outreach team! This is so exciting because I will actually start getting more and more involved with my church which I'm extremely excited about. The bad thing is that I'm not sure if I can still be on leadership at the BSU. I'm hoping that I will get to do both! I want to do both but I'm not sure how realistic that is. The difficulty of it is that my church leadership team could be a long term thing and the BSU is only another year. I'm praying that God will lead me to where and which way he wants me to go. 

I had many favorite moments of the week. Here at Move, we try to be encouraging to everyone. Doing this, we have something called "Cheer for this Kid". This is when one student each day wears a crown, cape, and has a stick thing that I can't remember the name is right now. Every time students see the "cheer for this kid", they have to cheer for them. Well one day the student was a student in a wheelchair. It gave me a glimpse of Camp Barnabas again! It was amazing at how the students treated the boy. It almost made me cry at several times during the day. 

The next favorite moment was last night. The speaker at the end of the message said who is going to rise up and paused. Random students started to stand and by the end everyone was standing. It was awesome! Then, the students gathered around their small groups and prayed with each other. It was such an awesome moment! I know that I'm not explaining it well enough to give it justice. It was incredible!

I'm excited to get this week rolling, but this weekend so far has been so refreshing! Not worrying about anything. Not having to think about what's my responsibility next. It's so great! 

For those of you praying for me and my team, I just want to thank you! I know that I couldn't have gotten through this week without those prayers. Specifically the whole only getting 5 hrs or less sleep every night. Last night, I was nearly a zombie I was so tired. I was so tired it was so hard for me to actually go to sleep! Anyway, thank you so much and I appreciate you so much!!
