Week 8

Hours: 2.5 counseling, 2.5 youth group, 1 baptismal service, .5 Sunday School, 2 sermon prep, 1 preaching, 1 worship team/corporate prayer, .5 Newsletter Insert

Week's Total: 11 (a light week)

I was able to baptize two of my girls this morning, Cassie and Stephanie!

This week I have been so exhausted after spending last week in Israel (which was INCREDIBLE). God has been working in my life, but I am so drained that I am easily discouraged and depressed.

I had to say goodbye to one of my boys today because he's moving back to Tennessee. That was hard.

I've had two major issues with students this week--issues that were just waiting for me as soon as I got back, along with a not so big but present volunteer situation and a situation with one other youth. I'm just tired...and behind on everything--programming at the church and my school work. I need His grace more than ever.

Tonight I gave a presentation about my trip to the whole church. It went well I think.

I really cannot get myself to go into detail this week. I do not have the energy to do so.

you are too kind... and I'm glad to hear you're deflecting some of the responsibility- you can't let it pile up until it kills you. hey I'm working on a church website btw, www.princetonwesleyan.com, it's going to have the messages everyweek in mp3 format if you ever want to listen. have a great week!
