For one of my courses last week I had to record everything I did for five days in a time log. Ummm not my favorite activity to say the least. But besides that, I thought it might be fun/interesting/educational to share with you a basic rundown of my week because you might still be thinking, “what is she even doing with her life?” Well, let me tell you:
Monday is what I like to call our “CGA Day.” All of the apprentices (29 of us) are together for the whole day. We start the morning with all-staff worship, then a guest speaker comes and talks to us. After lunch we have a time slot set aside for fundraising (hit me up yo) and then we have a Spiritual Formations class.
On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays we spend the entire morning in our tracks. For me that is worship track and I love it so much. This week we are learning about the tabernacle, and the power of music. Today we practiced singing psalms and it was so cool. After lunch we do our apprenticeships, which means working in the office for most of us. I plan to tell you more about my apprenticeship in a upcoming blog so stay tuned! Every Tuesday evening we have house night, a time for the seven women who live in our house to come together, break bread, catch up and do fun stuff.
Wednesdays are a little different because we have two classes in the morning. The first is Professional Foundations (this is the class I did the time log for) where we are learning about time and project management, and professionalism in general. This is a not so fun class for me but the teacher is wonderful and even though I do not like this kind of thing I am able to recognize its benefits and I am doing my best to keep a positive attitude. The second class I’m in is Restoring Your Identity. I was reluctant to choose this one at first because I feel like I’ve spent so much time working through identity stuff, but I have loved all of it so far. Its really driving home some truths that I have known for a few years now. [Any Women at the Cross / Cross Ministry Group folks who are reading this, I feel like Restoring Your Identity is like a drawn out version of the weekend retreat.]
So that’s basically it, plus a lot of other details that I didn’t include haha. If you’re curious or want to hear more about anything I mentioned please ask. I would love to take you on this journey with me.
Nutshell closed.
I want you to know that I am making myself laugh with these nut pictures hahaha.
I am still way, way behind on fundraising and I could really use your help if you are able to give. Any and all donations are absolutely welcome but I am seeking people who want to partner with me in support and commit to making a monthly donation (of any amount). My goal is to have twenty and so far I have one. Please prayerfully consider it and reach out to any other people that come to mind. I am certain God intends for me to be here so I am certain He will provide. There is much I don’t understand about this process and why he has allowed me to fall behind the deadline but I trust him. If you want to discuss this further please email me at [email protected] with your phone number so we can chat 🙂
PEACE AND LOVE.
