a new name for campus crusade for christ

Just this past week I officially joined this organization, Campus Crusade for Christ, after a thorough interview and application process spanning several months (Nov-April), and 5 weeks of theological and Biblical studies classes, leadership development and training, concluded with a special commissioning ceremony, similar to a graduation ceremony.  We (as an organization) received the announcement…

the road to colorado: part 3: a very long day

My alarm went off at 2:30 AM. I walked inside the truck stop ladies room and splashed my face, made coffee, and grabbed a snack and got back on the road by 2:49AM. I finally made it to Gallup, New Mexico at 5:45 AM with great prices at $3.49/gallon! I happily munched on the Panera…

the road to colorado: part 2: departure

I was scared to death. Not in a fearful, unable-to-move-way, but just overwhelmed with how needy and dependent on God I would have to be for this journey. How gigantic a step  leap of faith this really was. How much was unseen. How much was unknown. And the idea of traveling alone for this great…

the road to colorado: part 1: preparations

some late night journaling

I should be sleeping…but alas…my head is buzzing. Because of the traveling we’ve been doing, and staying all over the place, I’ve barely had a few minutes alone to think and process and pray, and while I should be sleeping with women of faith a few hours away, I must get some stuff out of…

starting the new year with a…sneeze

Not quite the bang I was looking for. In fact I’ve spent so much time sleeping or just doing those little activities to pass the time. I got sick on New Year’s Eve (and I  hope none of my 3 roommates got sick.) I had a fun time though…watching a roomful of college kids dancing…

All pictures post: #sdwc10 conference pics

Pictures from #sdwc10!! Driving to San Diego is one of my favorites, it’s an oh so familiar and short 1.5 hour trip. Big Welcome sign! Rainy day… Love seeing so many hands and hearts raised. In this particular shot everyone was singing with all their might: ‘I’ll stand, with arms high and heart abandoned’ Such…

The power of The name

If you’ve been following my tweets or on fb, you’ll notice I’ve been tweeting about #sdwc10 which stands for the (Campus Crusade for Christ) San Diego Winter Conference. I’ve been tweeting quotes and other things about the “conf.” and had something that wouldn’t fit in a tweet. After our main seasion this morning with excellent…
