Week #3

This week brought with it some first time leading experiences and a few new relationships.

Sunday was pretty fun. I played in the band at the West campus and also did communion comments. I was pretty happy with how stuff went and it was really great to finally get a chance to jump in and do something at church. I also got a chance this week to lead worship for student ministry on Tuesday night, and that was awesome. The students were great and I got a chance to chat with a few people afterwards, which is always a good thing.

But the end of the week was really a lot of fun. I went into the office after lunch on Thursday and got to work on a few projects, but around 5 or so, I went with my boss, Bobby, over to his home for some spaghetti and meatballs (and also cupcakes with the best icing ever!) to celebrate his son Sawyer's 4th b-day. I also got to hang out with Kay, one of our worship volunteers and her two daughters, and they're all awesome. Then on Friday afternoon, I went out with Bobby and his family to see Ice Age 3 and then we had dinner at Joe's Crab Shack, which again, was awesome.

This morning, I went to church early and led worship for a community group leader training event, and that was pretty cool too. Very slowly, but surely, I'm beginning to feel a touch more at home here in NW Indiana. I've still got a ways to go, but things are ever so slightly feeling a little more normal. Keep praying though!

the journey continues...
