I wanted to wait a minute to write this blog so I could write about Christmas and WINTER RETREAT! It was such a fun and exciting break, and then coming back and hopping right into winter retreat. We had a guest speaker from Fuller University, Dr. Lee come and talk. He talked about grace and how impactful the Gospel is to our story. One question he asked that impacted me that I will ask you is <b>Do you believe the Gospel is good news for you? </b></div><p><b><br /></b></p><h4 style="text-align: left;"><b>Winter Retreat </b></h4><div>We got SNOW!

Hope you are having a good summer, and getting to spend some time relaxing with friends and family! I am sure you wonder what does a college pastor do in the summer when a lot of the students are gone. It is actually a great time to connect with different students from other campuses, or meet with the students who are in town, something a lot of my colleagues and I love is what we call pool ministry! It is getting with different students and spending some quality relational time by the pool! Summer is an excellent time to build good relationships! I am also reading through some different books, so if you have any recommendations please leave me a comment. I am trying to read about 3 books a month! Here though is how the month of May went! </h4><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Graduation Station!! </h3><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitK0zwreBjNR71lLD6OWi_bEjdLGLuKEXqVTdY8oCnu_0ovNIpm05SKOY2EzyO66_GGaHPHxXP3pZLyUvgNeyVWoS2P5QqHFaf6MeCMgl9YbC1gyJzCOzJmNlpBGXtXoMzuoqSlP5dXl3rWOUY3napZT0GM9eMBFXzMFE_pZ9yhdjxCS0dWKuT0gdB/s2000/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="2000" height="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitK0zwreBjNR71lLD6OWi_bEjdLGLuKEXqVTdY8oCnu_0ovNIpm05SKOY2EzyO66_GGaHPHxXP3pZLyUvgNeyVWoS2P5QqHFaf6MeCMgl9YbC1gyJzCOzJmNlpBGXtXoMzuoqSlP5dXl3rWOUY3napZT0GM9eMBFXzMFE_pZ9yhdjxCS0dWKuT0gdB/s320/1.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Top Row L-R Julianne, Clarissa<br />Bottom Row, Hailey, Robert <br />Middle Girls- Kenny, Hailey, Juli, Sarah<br /><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: left;"> I got celebrate so many of my sweet friends graduating!

Hope you are doing well, and have been enjoying these beautiful fall trees! I recently read an article my mom posted on Facebook, that was saying the trees are more vibrant this season because of the immense amount of rainfall we received at the end of August.

Over the summer we had a situation with someone who stole some checks out of our mailbox, we have since set up a PO Box and are putting even more security in place. If you gave a check from May - July and believe it to be cashed, or think it was maybe stolen please message me so that we can talk through the solution so you can get that money back. All banks should be insured through the FDIC which should protect you in this case. I do need you to contact me or contact our admin team, the best way to do that is email.

How is it July already? This summer is flying by so quickly! Thank you guys so much for being on my support team and praying for me this summer. Summer is a bit more of a relaxing season. I have been getting to spend some time with my family, reading a new book, and working on my fundraising. I have been so thankful for the much slower pace at the moment. </p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Slowing my Pace </h3><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: left;">I have been working this summer on trying to have a slower pace, not have to be in control of so many things, and wanting to really have my life reflect who Jesus is in all my interactions. I have been going on many walks with God at this trail near my apartment. I have also been reading this book by John Mark Comer, who is an incredible author. He also wrote Live No Lies which is a great book, I would highly recommend.</div><div><br /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHDswocVrMDiHtuhZYGjM8lbwRF1HFOWIFthAyTjk_-96J8aoOOxV3yGveAoAuB8PlSQ5fWNKbkmta6R8aRY6fEe9KP8Co2KbKEj2RwHNVpb-WzJq59ZHL8HZst50ePx5T9wG13VEzzTyUaNtyc5W7wsJBxSaOHgK_ty79duTBMTyKPcWCpgBV_Fd3/s2475/614lNylQHAL.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2475" data-original-width="1594" height="354" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHDswocVrMDiHtuhZYGjM8lbwRF1HFOWIFthAyTjk_-96J8aoOOxV3yGveAoAuB8PlSQ5fWNKbkmta6R8aRY6fEe9KP8Co2KbKEj2RwHNVpb-WzJq59ZHL8HZst50ePx5T9wG13VEzzTyUaNtyc5W7wsJBxSaOHgK_ty79duTBMTyKPcWCpgBV_Fd3/w228-h354/614lNylQHAL.jpg" width="228" /></a></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzpOvsm1nMdsUYXphnO3HoeOkj6p9kgLS4j6MR3lY7J5dUrPlRTvIiCkjbhMIbQPMC3FD0DP5UwTwuLocjJKKD8Bms6HmD4JSOPpaZI-O-Zpopv3MBDUKpwmx1GjXQJKhfmmtHKVNYhLGyO1JQ-6pwdOIq2oTM9d2KSMhH7vCqomCeTeaAswWyI2Ct/s4032/IMG_2347.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="357" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzpOvsm1nMdsUYXphnO3HoeOkj6p9kgLS4j6MR3lY7J5dUrPlRTvIiCkjbhMIbQPMC3FD0DP5UwTwuLocjJKKD8Bms6HmD4JSOPpaZI-O-Zpopv3MBDUKpwmx1GjXQJKhfmmtHKVNYhLGyO1JQ-6pwdOIq2oTM9d2KSMhH7vCqomCeTeaAswWyI2Ct/w267-h357/IMG_2347.HEIC" width="267" /></a></div><br /><h3 style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />Family Time</h3><div style="text-align: left;">I was very lucky that I got to go to Montana this month and spend time with my dad!

I have been so grateful for this entire experience. God has definitely used this year to refine me and I am still in that process of being refined. I have learned so much this year about relying on what God thinks about me over what people think about me. God has already called me his child and that is so much more important.

It is hard to believe it has already been a whole month already! I am so excited about this month's updates. It has been just such a blast. I love the springtime, and seeing the wildflowers grow. It is such a pretty season, and living in Texas sometimes the weather is perfect! Do any of you all have a favorite season? Thank you guys so much for reading this update, I am so grateful for all of each and everyone of you guys. </p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Meeting New Friends </h3><div>Even though the school year is wrapping up we got to participate in some new outreach ideas on TCC and at UTA. The top pic is at UTA with some students in our ministry. It was called pics and pals, and we had 10 different pictures and were asking students what they thought or felt about them. It ranged from nurses during COVID-19 to bleached coral in the Great Barrier Reef. It was a neat way to hear from different students on our campus and what they think about different topics. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivdtL1PuwXpwcyHn9WzTQEmEfz8PyPcYlGrn98-kWgWaOVoZ50DkkeHQ71bYCaBonIpacbT--HdPzN76RFSk3wJykXFumSPL_DaxB8lHOZUQrOWhbETOxMapwVZ4mqRqLH1Ob9paER7fDeACouzWUFivVZWtFvwhpU80ZtCtbQn4GaoilDDXJGiuoR/s945/2.png" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="756" data-original-width="945" height="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivdtL1PuwXpwcyHn9WzTQEmEfz8PyPcYlGrn98-kWgWaOVoZ50DkkeHQ71bYCaBonIpacbT--HdPzN76RFSk3wJykXFumSPL_DaxB8lHOZUQrOWhbETOxMapwVZ4mqRqLH1Ob9paER7fDeACouzWUFivVZWtFvwhpU80ZtCtbQn4GaoilDDXJGiuoR/s320/2.png" width="320" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>The bottom picture is from TCC at their Arbor Day Festival.

I was lucky to get to spend it with so many people whom I love. My sweet cousin Morgan surprised all of us and drove in from Alabama! A question we asked our students during Easter was how does Jesus being resurrected bring you hope or comfort? <div><br /></div><div>One thing for me is that Jesus was raised in a bodily resurrection, that provides the comfort and hope that God calls our body good. God created our body's and Jesus being raised in a bodily resurrection affirms the creation of a good body. <br /><div><br /></div></div><div><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Little Moments </h3><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoC0yDve7k4ncaiWkge7j0bLzHlHUjM8l14-1-HI6RVuw_Cq2f9QxoqHIDPEW7HJ6z7_iTElXD-zPXP8Ar5-AumtxKeff0LjkTvRUj4AYMTUxxCl0CymVEShrii307frmaj-jbakWk9E_KMIWyPoeu-0AzOIkRk8-Cc9edXOFicA95e3CIKl_tU8Qz/s945/3.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="756" data-original-width="945" height="285" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoC0yDve7k4ncaiWkge7j0bLzHlHUjM8l14-1-HI6RVuw_Cq2f9QxoqHIDPEW7HJ6z7_iTElXD-zPXP8Ar5-AumtxKeff0LjkTvRUj4AYMTUxxCl0CymVEShrii307frmaj-jbakWk9E_KMIWyPoeu-0AzOIkRk8-Cc9edXOFicA95e3CIKl_tU8Qz/w356-h285/3.png" width="356" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">1.

I can't believe it has already been a month, these 28 days flew by so so fast! I am so grateful for you guys and the work you do, so that I can go out and be on the college campus. I am praying for you all and hope life is treating you well. This month was filled with so many fun events, I can't wait to share them with you. </p><h4 style="text-align: left;">Colder Days</h4><p>At the beginning and the end of the month we had a couple snowy and icy days. I am super grateful I get to live with two of the other apprentices and a student. Then in our apartment complex two other pastors who are married live here so we spent part of our day fellowshipping and sledding. Then we got to take the time to do virtual ministry and do homework for class. My CORE met online, as well as our TCC service. </p><p><br /></p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgrWhKPFTLWxBJupVukskAa8MhW96cgRtLb45v5QFzco6k_mLdy3DQqgL_TfQr4n5nl64reDv44W5XM4PXZqhQf-Zo3c6_4LWyG_5KFouVmSOChQ2UUo21myVbVtS1zc9pzbeAeFg14sa1RRN9v03Zun79xN4UuE_0wKrMXQfLcFQfxz7tqEYVdBWBZ=s4032" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="236" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgrWhKPFTLWxBJupVukskAa8MhW96cgRtLb45v5QFzco6k_mLdy3DQqgL_TfQr4n5nl64reDv44W5XM4PXZqhQf-Zo3c6_4LWyG_5KFouVmSOChQ2UUo21myVbVtS1zc9pzbeAeFg14sa1RRN9v03Zun79xN4UuE_0wKrMXQfLcFQfxz7tqEYVdBWBZ=w270-h236" width="270" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Virtual Core on our Icy Day</td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiprfhEgH7RBL-aH6k32ySjrKzaCff5rDXIHQ264GwRrrf3gL_39Eqqmh5wTSiBEMURvMPpoJuGuloJclHtfSYeQvDPdL00AGeXsQ_0sNzXyFqJ8sLAxJ5k4z5jeyOaQPKgPcmzNOrxc8-lt3n4g_wOID4ZfoHgR6QmqspUSSR77MsClfVuu567IwzX=s2016" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1512" data-original-width="2016" height="259" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiprfhEgH7RBL-aH6k32ySjrKzaCff5rDXIHQ264GwRrrf3gL_39Eqqmh5wTSiBEMURvMPpoJuGuloJclHtfSYeQvDPdL00AGeXsQ_0sNzXyFqJ8sLAxJ5k4z5jeyOaQPKgPcmzNOrxc8-lt3n4g_wOID4ZfoHgR6QmqspUSSR77MsClfVuu567IwzX=w346-h259" width="346" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">All of us that live in the same apartment<br />complex on our snow day </td></tr></tbody></table><span style="text-align: left;"> </span></div><h3 style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Showcase</h3><div><br /></div><div>Our ministry hosts an annual fundraiser to help raise money for our students going to Student Institute of Campus Ministry (SICM). It is filled with performances from FOCUS Alumni, and current students. This year like all the other years was so fun and showcased some of the many talented people in our community. We had a woman who dressed up like Dolly Parton and performed 9-5, a Guns n Roses tribute to open, and then an amazing Beyonce cover! All of this along with selling art and concessions goes to help raise money for our students. If you are interested in watching the show still and were not able to, you can go to this link below, and watch for free! I would also like to encourage if you feel moved to make a donation to our SICM funds for our students, but 0 pressure.

One thing that is so unique about this semester is that the theological professor who we listen to lectures of from the seminary college in Canada called Regent. He is zooming in with us for an hour long Q and A every week. This is an incredible opportunity! We get to ask him any questions we have about scripture and theology, it is such a valuable resource.
