I said in my last post that I would talk about my summer. Lets just say it has been a crazy one! In June, the middle school ministry at my church took 160 or so middle schoolers to Island Lake for five amazing days. We did archery (my first time ever), high ropes course, motocross, worship, devotionals, and messages from a great speaker. I truly enjoyed spending time with God and with the middle schoolers and leaders. It was also very bittersweet because it was the last time to really hang out with my small group girls who would be moving onto high school. I got to meet my new group of sixth-graders, and they are AMAZING! They are excited to be entering middle school, and I am excited to walk alongside them.
We also went on our annual leadership retreat, where we did some training on how better to interact with the parents of our middle schoolers. I am excited to walk alongside them as they guide their daughter to grow and mature in Christ.
With my internship program, At Home At School, we held our summer program at Silver Star and then MLK Elementary. We had different classes for them to attend, and provided breakfast and lunch for them as well. I was able to help in a variety of classes and it was great to interact with the teachers and students!
The family that I nanny for welcomed a new addition to the family, Bradey. He is such a sweet little boy, and Evie loves being a big sister. I love working there and they are a great family!
I had the chance to go up to Seattle to see my Grandparents who were visiting from Canada, and I also got to see the people I worked with at PCBS and it was so fun! We had a fun-filled weekend to say the least!
So it has been a crazy summer, but an enjoyable one! I am looking forward to what God has in store for me next.
Until next time,
Morgan
