This video is a one-minute clip of what my whole weekend looked like. I drove the 4.5 hour drive from Cedarville, OH to Elkhart, IN in 5.75 hours (thanks to the weather) to reunite with my original roommates from Peru, Cindy, Emily and Julene (we were only missing Heidi!). Combine the amount of junk food we ate with the lack of sleep and our excitement to be together and I'm sure you can imagine. It was chaos, in the best way possible.
On top of the stomach aches and 3a.m. pillow fights, we just had such a great time of catching up. Spending time with those girls was such a huge blessing and encouragement to me. I was able to vent all my fears and to receive a mountain of great advice from godly ladies who have been in my exact shoes. Both Cindy and Emily recently returned from serving at MCS and had so many things to say that I needed to hear, everything from ways to motivate my students to how to take a taxi to church. It was the best weekend I've had in a long time and exactly the encouragement I needed to keep me excited about the opportunity God has before me right now.
