Today is officially my first day here. I’m still getting used to the culture up here…it’s so different than home…but I like it here. The people I’m working with are great and lots of fun! We met today to discuss my calendar for the summer….it’s packed! I will have my downtime every now and then, but I’ll definitely be hopping the rest of the time. Two weeks of GA camp…VBS…backyard Bible club…Deaf socials…church office work…Deaf worship services…Deaf conference…lots of stuff!!! God’s really going to do some cool stuff this summer…I can feel it! I spent my afternoon typing lyrics to songs to create a folder that can be used when someone is typing captions for the signing choir. While typing, I’ve gotten to meet several church members who came through the sanctuary…everyone has been very welcoming. I also had my first person to say “Wow…you must be from the south…” I cracked up! I hadn’t gotten that yet, but then again, I haven’t met a ton of people either. I’ll be interested to see if I can hang onto the southern accent (what little I still have). We shall see! Anyway, that’s my day. I’m here…all is well…and I’m looking forward to serving here over the next 2 months.
Just keep your shoes on and you’ll be fine!
Good Morning Sarah, it really sounds like you are going to have a full summer, but then I know you would not have given this summer to our Lord and have it any other way. Have a great time! I love you, Gram
I’m so glad to hear your uplifting voice. When I read your blog I hear you talking and can see the excitement in your face!! I’m so happy for you girl!!!
Enjoy!
