High Five

There has been a multitude of things going on in my life and ministry lately. Rather than bore you all with a monologue explaining everything, I’ll briefly update you on 5 recent highlights and let the pictures do the talking.

1. Started meeting with my discipleship group this week-same girls as last semester! This month we will be learning what it means to be a disciple-learner of Christ.

2. Celebrated birthdays for the month of January and February. Leyla (our national director) had hers in January, so the students put together a very special gift for her. Some even gave some pocos palabras or brief words about how much she has meant to them. It was great to remember the impact this one woman has made on student’s lives at UASD.

3. We have students who keep returning to Night Vida! It continues to be a place where students are involved in discussions about their beliefs and can hear more about who God is.

4. Our Stint team met up with the El Salvador Stint team and staff for a midyear retreat last week. It was the perfect time to be encouraged, motivated, and energized by the community of the other Stinters. I was so blessed by how much everyone poured out into me that week and it definitely boosted my ability to come back to Santo Domingo and finish my Stint year well! (Pictures to come later)

5. Preparing to receive 50+ students from USC, Northern Arizona University, University of Arizona, and the University of Oklahoma for a Spring Break trip on the 14th of this month! Pray that God would give our team help organizing this and giving them direction for how best to use their time at UASD.

That’s all for now—thanks for checking in on me and I’ll continue to keep you posted!
