In honor of the fact that this year’s DCE seniors will find out where their internship sites are for this coming year, I thought I’d recall what that experience was like for me one year ago today: The anticipation mounts throughout the last week as professors make jokes of the weird places they… Continue reading Oh, Internship Placement Day

Full Days Don’t Have to be Busy Days
Long days. Packed schedules. Event after event. Normally when we hear things like this, we assume things like “Life is crazy!” or “I’m just so busy.” However, while in Haiti, I was reminded that this doesn’t have to be the case. I was reminded that a full schedule doesn’t have to be a hurried… Continue reading Full Days Don’t Have to be Busy Days

My Blogging “To-Do” List
Wow. There are so many things I’ve been wanting to blog about, but because of all the awesome things happening right now, I have has less and less time to actually write about it. So, before I forget what they are, I’ve started a list, right here on the blog. I hope to get to… Continue reading My Blogging “To-Do” List
30 Hour Famine – Recap
Hello All! Well, we made it to the end! The 30-Hour Famine was a success (in my opinion at least). 22 youth and 4 adult participants from four area churches gave up eating for 30 hours so others could eat! I hope to tell more specifics in the days to come about our experience. But… Continue reading 30 Hour Famine – Recap
‘Tis Good, Lord, To Be Here
Today was a beautiful day. I’m currently back at school in Nebraska for a Mid-Year Conference with all of the DCE interns from all over the world. These few days back on campus are hard to describe. Most of us interns have used the word “weird” in that description more times than we probably can count. It’s… Continue reading ‘Tis Good, Lord, To Be Here
Crossroads CONNECT – Fighting Satan’s Lies
Last week at Crossroads CONNECT (First Trinity's Thursday Night Activity for High School Students) we talked about the lies Satan tells us. After playing a game of Jenga we connected the game with our lives. The lies Satan tells us and the things he tempts us to do don't seem like such a big deal... kind… Continue reading Crossroads CONNECT – Fighting Satan’s Lies
Collision: Mend the Broken

We survived the first “road trip” planned by Bekah. :) As promised yesterday, I wanted to share a little bit about my experience this weekend at Acquire the Fire in Cleveland, OH with 16 teens and 2 other awesome adult leaders. The theme this year for this conference was Mend the… Continue reading Collision: Mend the Broken
Joyfullyblessed… to dig into God’s Word
In the process of handing out nametags and talking to people tonight at short course, I realized that I’ve officially been at First Trinity for three months. I don’t think there’s a better way to celebrate than an awesome opportunity to dig into God’s Word together. :) What a fun night in Philippians 2!… Continue reading Joyfullyblessed… to dig into God’s Word
Joyfullyblessed… by Crossroads CONNECT
Have I mentioned lately how much I love my job? If I haven't, well it's A LOT! Sometimes I even hate using the words "job" or "work" to describe my internship here at First Trinity because I just simply love what I get to do each day. Anyway, I've decided that a lot of my friends/family back… Continue reading Joyfullyblessed… by Crossroads CONNECT
