Stuff has been SUPER busy over the past weeks. I've finally started to settle into a rhythm at the office, and I finally feel like each day I have some real tasks to accomplish and some regular responsibilities, etc. I'm really enjoying working at Suncrest. I feel like I'm connecting with our staff pretty well, and that's been very enjoyable for me. Bobby (my mentor) and I are making a pretty formidable team. I'm really enjoying working/learning from him.
While we're talking about office staff, I guess I should mention that our East Campus pastor, Doug, and his wife Sheila finally got the chance to celebrate the birth of their 5th child, a little girl named Lydia, yesterday at 3pm. She was only 9 days overdue (note sarcasm). Some things are better late than never, I guess. Anyway, I got to visit them at the hospital today and that was really great. Mom and baby are doing well, and they should be home tonight.
Doing a lot of video stuff lately... I feel pretty cool working with our cameras and taping and all that kind of stuff. I've been doing a ton of editing, which is very tedious work at times, but usually I enjoy it. I'm now the in-charge person for recording and filming Greg, our lead pastor, as he delivers his message on Thursday afternoons for us to record and get to East Campus for that Sunday's services. Last week was my first week... a little rough in spots, but a good experience.
We've also re-launched our "Cultivate Blog" (you can click on the words for a link to the site). On Sunday, we launched our Thrive series, which I think is going to be awesome. It talks about how we can do more than just survive tough times in our lives, but how we can actually embrace and grow in them. The first Sunday was great... there was a real energy in the room. Anyway, we are doing a 21 day devotional journey on the Cultivate blog. Each day on the blog there will be a new Scripture to read, as well as a short devo video from someone at Suncrest. I filmed a ton of these videos, and I'm actually the speaker in 4 of them (in fact, tomorrow is one such video). Check out the blog at www.suncrestcultivating.blogspot.com!!
Well, I've probably talked enough. Hope you enjoyed the update, and I promise I'll try to do better on here. Definitely keep praying for me to form some relationships with folks here at Suncrest, for me to keep learning, and also just for finances to keep working out. I am feeling pretty penniless most of the time, but I have no doubts that God will keep providing in unexpected ways.
Thanks guys! Love you all.
the journey continues...
