Updates & College Career Night

Wow, it's fall and EVERYTHING is happening at once! In addition to my "day job" in mission, I'm helping two nonprofits start locally, getting ready for the HUGE Children's Consignment Sale next week (& battling LOTS of technical issues as our technology isn't cooperating this week as we prep for the 50,000 items we have at the sale), starting a Hispanic ministry, into campus ministry, plus the normal meetings a day brings. Where are those lazy days of summer?!

Much of my work is about helping people of all ages to be alive to what is happening in these moments of life- how we can grow in who we are and who we are called to be, and how we can awaken to the needs of the world. My work with teens and college students reminds me how many of those BIG life decisions revolve around career, college, and the friends/network you create based on those decisions. Locally the Savannah River Site (SRS) hosts an extraordinary event featuring 150 colleges, people who can help with career exploration and discernment, financial aid guides, and more in our local Civic Center (the James Brown Arena for those of you in the know about Augusta).
