to the ends of the earth.

This weekend I went to an interview for summer missions with 1.8 Leadership. I was really nervous the week prior, but slowly excitement took over all other emotions. I had to leave early on Friday to get there on time, so it was really stressful to get everything done and prepared for the interview - plus homework, projects, preparing to go home, extended worship, and tons of other stuff. But everything got done in time and I was off to Louisville with my friend Marcus by 2pm - after stopping to get some pumpkin chip muffins from a wonderful lady! -

When we got there... we checked into our hotel rooms and then got lost trying to find a Starbucks.. we finally found it and were on our way to the KBC for two days of interviews. It started with dinner. Then we went into another room to play some get to know you games & get separated into different groups to be assigned a project. My group was a little slow getting to know each other at first.. but by the end of the night our project was almost finished, we were watching Elf, and eating pizza we had ordered. It was a great time to get to know some amazing people who are just as passionate as I am about serving the Lord.

It was neat to see all the different talents coming together to achieve a goal. I will have to say that the worst part of the weekend was eating Vienna sausages for a scavenger hunt. I had to eat a whole can of them. It was totally disgusting!! I gagged & started tearing up.. but that was the only down part of the whole weekend.

I was in church this morning and we were taking up an offering for missions. To make everyone understand and encourage them to give - the pastor had us read the Great Commission and then Acts 1:8. I was so moved by reading the verse with my brothers and sisters that a few tears fell. It was so beautiful.

I will hear whether or not I got a spot on the 1.8 Leadership Team this week - before Thanksgiving. I can't wait!!

There will definitely be an update of info after I am informed.
