- me and canaan have been married for 2.5 months now! it's gone by so so fast and has been a blast the entire time! [accidental rhyming there...] being married is fun fun fun.
- working with the youth at prestonwood has been my favorite thing about dallas so far. love these kids and their hearts. some of the most amazing boys and girls living their lives out for the Lord! love seeing Him work like this and beyond thankful to get to witness it!
- ya'll, if you ever want to move somewhere, dallas is great. i haven't met one unfriendly person yet. it was such a blessing from the Lord to provide us with so many families that have taken canaan & i in.
- it's 3 days until christmas and i canNOT wait to be home for the holidays! because canaan is working the christmas eve services, we are going to leave early on christmas day and fly in. this is a bittersweet christmas for me because it will be the last one in my house that i grew up in. mom is getting married to mike in february [woot woot!], so this will be the last memory of christmas in the house that has all of our family memories. the last holiday in the house where my dad was. but change is good and is of the Lord! thank goodness for new days and new mercies. it just means i will soak up all i can this time and truly enjoy it.
- i am currently in the process of starting a new job! it's an assistant position for the president of a ministry called bridge builders. yall should check it out here! i am truly excited about this, for multiple reasons. 1) i need routine and am not the type that doesnt work. at least not yet. so a job will be really good for me! i need to feel like i contribute in that way. i will miss the impromptu visits to see canaan or have coffee with highschool girls, though! 2) this ministry is so amazing. it is about working with urban communities and turning them around for the Lord. just being there for an interview and we prayed 3 different times while touring the warehouse. so incredible! needless to say, i am super excited about being considered to join their team.
well, that's all i can think to share this time! super general things, but wanted to catch up to now!
merry christmas everyone!!
