Excitement is in the air!!

Tomorrow starts our second week in California. This is a little bitter sweet!! I absolutely love this job! I'm going to miss all of the people that I'm working with and the work that I get to do! It's so awesome that I get to do what I love which is serving others and the exciting part is that I'm good at it!

Last week, my partner and I had a challenge given to us by our boss. It was to see who could learn the most names. I (without a doubt) won too! I not only knew their name, I also knew the church name! It helped me out so much!! I got to get to know some of them! It felt more personal when I knew their names! 

This week was a bit tough for us as a team. We hit a hard spot and our director noticed. I can't put a finger on what exactly went wrong but my team as a group started to slip. By Thursday morning, we were all so frustrated with ourselves and each other. Some of us were not in great moods but by the end of the day we were back to where we needed to be. It made me realize that even through our hard times, we can still come through. We don't need to sit and wallow on what's going wrong. We need to move forward and do our best. 

God has been doing awesome things in my life. He keeps opening doors, having me meet awesome people, and revealing things to me throughout this summer. I have had some great conversations with people throughout the summer which have lead to another door opening. It has been my prayer thatGod will continue to open doors that should be opened and close doors that need to be closed. I pray that God will give me the strength to close the doors that I need to close also.

This is my view for the week! It's so hard to be frustrated or angry because every time you walk outside you see this! God's handiwork is breath taking!!
