Alright friends, it has been really hard not to tell anyone ('cept I did to some!) about this news. Especially since everyone asks, "so what about the job?" and "what's new?" and "what are you doing with your life?"
Well, last weekend I was hired at River of Life Church as a Youth and Music Minster!!! I haven't been broadcasting this news because the church (besides the staff and elders) didn't know. Today it has been made official. The youth and their parents had a meeting with Dave. So yeah, I actually start working on Tuesday and actually go on the payroll on Friday. The rest of the church will find out via letter this week and an announcement in church on Sunday.
The role includes 15 hours a week that I will be responsible to youth starting now, and starting in January another 10 to add to the music ministry. So this will all be crazy exciting. I've really been itching to get things started...such as cleaning and painting MY OFFICE and planning events such as the Planet Wisdom conference on my birthday! :)
This is something I never ever saw coming in my life. But it's right. I'm obviously not the most qualified for the role out there, but it's not about me. It's all about God. He is going to be the one "in charge" of this youth and music minstry. Definitely the music ministry is a no-brainer to me! Ha! But still I have never been the one on-top, go-to person and same with the youth. So it's big for me. And I have to keep reminding myself that even if I don't feel that big, my God is definitely big! So I don't even know what to say....I'm excited and I covet your prayers! Now you know! If you have more questions, just let me know! I'm sure I will be giving updates on how things are going!
P.S. If you are not doing anything today, I think I'm going to go over and do some work in the office! :)
