I made it to Michigan and
started classes last week. I live on the third floor of this old
school building that I hope to call home for the next two years. I
share my dorm room with two other girls. I'm on the top bunk, I had a
feeling I would be. I'm writing to you from my very own desk in our
room. The weather is hot and humid, I'm enjoying it now while I can
before the winter comes. The hardest rule for me to follow is wearing
shoes in the hallways.
My classes this semester are
The Love of God, Bibliology, Biblical Foundations, Pentateuch, Old
Testament History, Proverbs, Hermeneutics, Evangelism in a Postmodern
World, and History of Doctrine & Practice. I am in the freshman
class this semester, there are around 65 students in my class. In
addition to classes I also have student work program, which means for
about three hours a week I take care of a job here at the school. My
job is cleaning the Freshman classroom. I'll also be assigned weeks
that I will be on kitchen crew, cleaning up after meals.
On Sunday I went to a church
up in Lansing about 45min drive away. There are many things I enjoyed
about the church, but I plan to look at some closer churches before I
decide. Please pray for this decision as I visit some different
churches in the next couple weeks.
I have been looking for a
job here as I only have money for the first semester right now. I
very much dislike looking for a job. It stresses me out, but I know
God will provide for what He wants me to do. As I continue to pray
and search for a job I am so thankful for those of you who have
supported me financially for school and continue to do so. I am so
blessed to be here and I choose to be faithful to what God has given
me for right now because my future is in His hands and not mine to
worry over. Please pray I will be faithful with this time I have and
for Gods provision for future expenses.
I am thankful for all your
prayers as I make this transition to school.
