Colorado!

It seems I have not been keeping up with this blog as I had originally planned and I'm sure no one is waiting for this installment so I write this mostly for myself.  After a year and half of dealing with adverse working conditions from my direct supervisor at Covenant College I decided walk away from my position and begin searching for another place to serve.  This was a tough decision for me because the students at Covenant and my RA's were very close to my heart.  However, after a short search I have been hired to do the exact same thing here at Colorado Christian University.

I am grateful for the opportunity and feel lucky to contribute in some way to the kingdom of God, inadequate as I feel sometimes.  My job consists of directing the community operations of three upperclassmen buildings on campus and the programming that takes place there.  I am also directly associated with 3 other RD's, 3 ARD's and 9 RA's.  I am so grateful that I have a new boss who actually cares about all students, wants to grow me as a professional and shows up to work prepared and ready to do whatever necessary to get the job done right.

Being in Colorado again is nice as well because I am again in the midst of family and friends that I love an care for deeply.  My little brother, Kyle, also moved to CO recently and is looking for a job.  I haven't had much time to spend with anyone due to all the training but I'm sure that will come soon.  I have been up to the mountains a couple times and also got to take part in the annual H.A.S. Golf Tournament with the guys up in the mountains.

I am looking forward to another new beginning and pray the Lord will bless my efforts in this new ministry setting.
