A new stage in Life

Two years ago at this time I was living in Strathmore, Alberta, Canada working at Covenant Bible College and loving even through it was well below freezing everyday. One year ago at this time I was living in Yaounde, Cameroon, Africa working at Rain Forest International School teaching some math, science and music to High school kids. There it was around 80 degrees everyday. Now I am living in Chicago, IL, United Stated where I just started my classes at North Park Theological Seminary this week. Crazy where God will take you!
The last two years I found that the highlight of each of my jobs was mentoring and discipling the young adults I worked with. I seek to help them understand more of who they are and how much Jesus Christ loves them. I found that it is something I can do and love to do in the USA, Canada and Cameroon. It hit me that working with youth is not just something fun that I enjoying doing. But rather, I feel it is the call God has placed on my life. It is not a game, but a path he has put me on and I find myself back at Seminary seeking to gain more tools and resources to help me continue well on this path I believe God has placed me on.
I miss the weekly updates I would do on this blog in Cameroon. It helps me process things and I had lots of good feedback from ways God may have used my words and the lessons he taught me in your lives. It is my hope to keep writing as I go through Seminary and share openly of the joys and struggles that God blesses me with.
Be Blessed, My friends!
