Tomorrow is my last day in the offices at FBC Huntsville, and after tonight's choir practice I'm starting to realize how much I'm going to miss everyone here! I started thinking about it and realized that tonight was the last day I'd see my supervisor (who is going out of town for a conference tomorrow morning), and the last time I'd have to work with the choir at FBC. They've been such an amazing group of people to work with and I feel so blessed to have spent the summer learning from them and getting to know them.
I know that life is full of changes, but once again this is going to be a difficult one. Since last fall, during my internship at FBC Raleigh, I have made a point to open myself up more to the possibility of making friends even if I know I'm going to be leaving them soon. It seems that I've succeeded in this here in Huntsville, because I have made some wonderful friends that have helped to guide me and helped me to learn from their experiences. I can not say enough how grateful I am that these people were put into my life. Once in a while you stop long enough to realize just how much someone has positively impacted your life, and this is one of those moments. I know that my life and ministry has been improved by the people I have worked with this summer.
So, Sunday will be my last day at the church, and I'll be filling in for Billy, my supervisor, while he's away at a conference. I'll be leading the music and doing the prayer and welcome for Sanctuary Worship on Sunday morning, so prayers for a calm and clear mind will be greatly appreciated! It will also be an emotional day for me as well, so I know it will help to know you all are praying for me.
Overall, amazing summer! :) And what a wonderful experience to have as I go into full-time ministry in Raleigh in a few weeks. To live, is an awfully big adventure... :)
