Black Friday confuses me. After hours/days of preparing for family to come over people spend hours standing in the freezing cold to save some money on material things. Would you do the same if Jesus was in Walmart at 4am? Shouldn't we be so excited for the sacraments that we are waiting for hours on line in the cold just to experience HIM? Getting up at the wee hours of the morning for the excitement of being in HIS presence?
Every Black Friday I think of Good Friday. That one day the church is packed, just the same as the stores are packed the day after Thanksgiving. Let's pack our churches everyday! The Lord is waiting for you, so GO!
Catholic Missionary. Haiti stole my heart. Jesus runs my life. Don't feed me gluten or dairy!

Digo Si Senor
I've never taken a Spanish class. I've never been to Spain, and whenever we sing in Spanish at mass I get really nervous. So the title of this blog may confuse you. Your probably thinking uhh hello, your title is in Spanish. Well this is the only song I know in Spanish and I love it.
Digo Si Señor en tiempos malos y en tiempos buenos.
Digo Si Señor a todo lo que hablas.
I SAY YES MY LORD. In all the good times, in all the bad times. I say yes my Lord to every word you say.
These words speak so perfectly to my heart right now. Since I left camp in June I was praying about the next time I was able to come back. HE blessed me with a quick 24 hour trip there in July and I felt so filled. During my time there I began praying about doing more missionary work. The Lord has placed on my heart serve at Covecrest this summer also. So I began to pray about it daily and just asking God what HE wanted me to do. I began filming my video last night. I ask for some prayers through this whole process, that whatever HIS plan is, that I accept that and say YES. I also ask for prayers for my Covecrest family, and all who will be going through the selection process of the summer missionaries.

What a month!
It has been far to long since I've posted on here. Lets see what has been going on in my life. Well class has consumed me, and sleep is not an option. Hairspray has begun being performed. Last week was tech week, which turned into hours and hours of rehearsal, cast bonding, and not a lot of sleep. With the packed house we had on the first 4 showings of the musical all the work has been worth it. This week is a bit more of a relaxed week, I can actually spend time with friends!
In preparation for my presentation in my Marriage and Family class I cracked open Mission of the Redeemer. One of the first post it notes I looked said this "Faith is strengthened when it is given to others!" BAM truth! God has given me so many things to be thankful for and so many different ways to spread HIS love. So my prayer has just been to love, and spread love in all I do. In those late night rehearsals, senate meetings, e-board meetings, and meetings that just drag on for hours. In the early morning classes that seem pointless, and the homework that seems useless. Make God present and in the center of all you do.
