Family and friends!
Hello from many, many miles away! It has been a crazy week of moving, situating, and figuring things out! This time has been exciting, as well as nerve-wracking! I didn't expect this move to be such a transition for my life for some reason, but it really has been! I am so thankful for it thus far, and even though it has only been one week, I sure have learned a lot already. I live in a house with (right now) 3 other girls. It has been really fun getting to know who they are and how they live and think and operate. I think it will be a really awesome year with these ladies!
This is my room:
Classes start on the 17th, and we meet once a week for 3 hours, which will be a long day. But I am excited about all my classes! Internship, which counts as one of my classes, meets just about every day. Today, (Wednesday) is our longest days of week. Our schedule is full from 9 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. every Wednesday with ministry things. Today has been so awesome. We reach out to about 12 schools in the city of Modesto, and we get to go onto campuses during their lunch periods and try to build relationships with the students and eventually invite them to The Stadium (our youth group). We then go back when school is let out and hand out fliers and information about the youth group. I love this side of ministry, just getting to love on kids. That's what they need and I am excited to just get the opportunity to regularly do it.
Life is busy here and wild and exciting and everything else that comes with moving and college and classes and big changes. But I am happy to be here and I feel a little bit more peace coming with every new day!
Miss you all, and I will try to update this pretty regularly.
Soph
