1 Week Under My Belt!

Hello faithful blog readers!

Well, I have one week of school under my belt here at OURUF. It was quite a week with lots of activities. Our first large group was great (we are doing a relationship series this semester). It was supposed to be outside, but a huge storm blew into Norman, so we moved inside at the last minute.

I am learning more and more about campus. My favorite place to meet students thus far is outside of the union at some nice wood tables. One thing I really like about OU is the landscaping and attention to nice seating areas. I really think that everywhere you look there are nice tables, cozy chairs, and lovely benches to sit on. This comes in handy for a job where sitting and talking is pivotal! There are pictures to come (in a future post- so stay tuned!) of me next to the "Sooner Schooner" wagon in the union :)

This Thursday I am hosting an event called "Woman's World" for all of the girls in RUF. We will have dinner and hopefully it will be a good time to meet new people and fellowship.

Please continue to be in prayer for the freshmen on campus and my interactions with them. Pray that they recognize God's sovereignty in their lives and that they would desire to seek out community here at OU.

Well, this will be my last post for August. Tomorrow September will be here, which means that college football is about to be underway!!! Go Gators!! I did, by the way, get trash talked twice in the cafeteria this week for wearing a Gator shirt. If that is not persecution, then I don't know what is :)

  1. You get trash-talked? You have to give it back. I will offer a significant reward for a picture of you wearing a Tim Tebow shirt giving Sam Bradford a full-on Gator chomp on campus. No, seriously, I'm not kidding.

  2. I had the immense pleasure of heckling a fellow teacher wearing a Sooner sweatshirt while I was at training in California, AND another teaching wearing an Ohio State t-shirt. Who's number 1 in the Pre-Season polls?! It's great to be a Florida Gator!

  3. My seating preference on campus is a swinging bench. I'm excited to hear more!
