My Job Description

My second day here in Aberdeen, Joe, Sarah, and I went to Starbucks to discuss my portfolio. They shared with me their heart and vision for Radiate and the students in Aberdeen, then they also went over the different things I’ll be doing for the ministry. My plate is full; it’s very exciting!!! Everything from discipling students and leading a small group, to filming and editing videos for the outreaches, to planning and leading a missions trip to another country! This year so far has proven to be full of challenges and great joy.

Please pray that God will quicken my mind, that my creativity will be sharpened and I’ll be able to do every task given to me with excellence. Some of my responsibilities are things I’m familiar with or have experience in, but many are very new. It will be a deep growing experience for me, I’m sure of it. If I had a grip on all of these things, I’d probably rely on my own strength and not the Lord’s. He wants to show me just how much He can do with the fractional resources I have to offer Him.
