North Carolina Bound

As most of you all know, I will be heading to North Carolina in a few weeks to a City called Concord. It is really close to Charlotte. In Concord, I will be Branchview First Church of God's Youth Pastor "Intern." I am really excited about this opportunity and experience that I will get. Some of you may asking how I got the position, well here is how:

In late September early October, the church that I attend now were invited to Branchview as part of a LIVE weekend team. Five of us made the journey to this City. While there, I worked with the youth and leaders and became pretty attached to them. I even kept in touch with some of them there. Later on in February, March I received a phone call from my friend Jen, who asked if I would be interested in a postion there as the Youth Pastor "Intern." My heart immediately started pounding, I wasn't sure if I was excited or upset or what. I said, "let me pray about it." I prayed about it and gave them an answer of Yes, I would love to do that! As days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months the time has finally come, where in just a few short weeks, I will be heading to North Carolina all by myself to lead these Youth (with the help of the leaders there.)

I am making this blog so that I can keep you all updated on how I am doing in North Carolina. Thanks again for all your prayers through the years!
