Oh no!

I'm so behind on blogging!! What to do? It would be hard to update you on everything. . .but I'll start with some small snippets and then go into more detail later:
- thanks for praying for my health, I got over the cold pretty quickly - thank God!
- speaking at Unplugged for the College of Science and Math was so sweet. Good discussion came out of the passage that I taught on (Deuteronomy 30) and I know the Lord worked in me as I prepared to speak - His Word is so clear and impactful!
- the 10,000 years outreach week went well, students took ownership of the week and many students were surveyed. Some heard the Gospel for the first time, how awesome! Many believe in reincarnation - a reminder that the lost are very lost. A reminder that should spur us to action.
- leaders are being selected and trained for the fall, a big portion of the work (the big dance, reading bios, conversations, boot camp) is behind us and it is so exciting to know that God has once again raised up so many wonderful leaders for the freshmen class of '08.

SO, that's a glimpse into the past week. This weekend has been so fun: some of my freshmen girls came over for games (Clue), movies (27 Dresses), and yummy treats (like a fresh batch of stroopwafels). I also went to a very snazzy baby shower with a friend - a stage of life I'd like to be in. . .some day. :) The highlight was probably the Shawn McDonald concert last night, he's my favorite Christian artist currently so it was a huge treat to see him live. Oh, and dinner at the Patty's tonight, can't ever go wrong there. Ceslie is such a great "mom away from home" and I'm glad I got to spend time with her on Mother's Day. Going home next weekend to be with my wonderful real mom! :) One of the reasons for making the trek is to start moving my belongings. . .because God is moving me on. Read up in my latest prayer letter (should be arriving in the mail this week - email me if you're not on the list!) to hear what exactly is going on. I'll share more on this topic soon! Blessings for this new week!

Dinner at the Patty's... I'm jealous! I had leftover spaghetti for dinner - not quite the same. Anyway, it was absolutely lovely to see you for a few hours last night! Have a wonderful week! Love you!

Oh, and your last letter went to my other house - have I not given you my new address? Let me know if you need it! It's okay if it goes to Clayton, my parents are still there, it just takes longer to get to me!
