January til now.....

Greetings to all! I hope that everyone is having an amazing 2007 so far. I can definitely say that mine has been an adventure thus far! I'm sorry it has taken me soooo long to update, things have just been amazingly crazy busy lately. I guess for organizational sake, I will try to go month by month. So here we go......January. January started off with a trip to Atlanta for the PASSION 07 conference. Which to sum it up, was GLORIOUS! The 4 days that I was there, were jam packed with some of the most intensely amazing worship for God that I have ever been a part of. PASSION opened me up to a whole new side of my faith and walk with God. Although it hasn't been easy it has definitely been worth it! I also got introduced to several different mission opportunities at PASSION. I honestly have felt my heart pulled closer into mission work in the past couple years and while I was there, explored several different mission groups. I think that my time might be well spent in Africa, at least that's what my heart is telling me. Other than that, I started my last semester of school. YAY! I am sooooo ready to be out of there! Although school has been tough. Anyways, February.....not much happened there. I went on break between classes February 12th and don't go back until March 12th which is a pretty sweet deal. After that, only 2 more to go. CCC Charity Ball was in February and it was amazing! I got to spend it with 3 of the most amazing people in the world, along with all my favorite CCCers. Brendon, Leigh, and Sam are some of the most amazing people ever! And the Charity Ball was a beautiful night and we had tons of fun.
And well, that was the most exciting thing that happened in February, so now we are in March. March is still developing. But over the span of the last 3 months, I have made a major decision for my life. I had recently mentioned in a previous post about visiting my friend Thad's church, Mosaic. Well, it has since drawn me in so much that I have decided that it is where I want to make my home as far as church goes. I have felt so taken in by everyone there. It is just amazing the things God has given me through there. I have started helping with the youth, which has always been something I wanted to do at my old church but they never would let me. I get to help out on the first Monday of the month with 4:12, which is an amazing high energy worship service for youth.
It is so awesome! I also get the privilege of helping 2 other amazing ladies, Susan and Sarah, with leading a small group for the middle school girls! It is a lot of fun and I learn so much each week. OH! I almost forgot one VERY important thing that happened in February! Kristi and Ian Miller, two of my friends from CCC, finally got to meet their little girl! They adopted the worlds CUTEST baby in China, something they have been in a process of doing for 2 years. Little Kylie is amazing and she has already stolen my heart!
She is beautiful and I absolutely adore every minute I get to spend with her! Well, to keep this as short as possible, I think I will end it here. There is so much more happening but for now, I think this is all I need to talk about! God is amazing! He has given me so much, I can't even begin to describe! Hope everyone has an amazing week!
