Goodbye Spring Break

Back to work tomorrow. Spring break was great and I'm clearly not ready to get up and teach tomorrow after such a relaxed break. I really didn't do much or go anywhere out of state. Other then a few days of girls softball practice, two days of class and sleeping in til 11am on some days, I spent most of my time preparing for the sermon I delivered yesterday at my church. The Indo one that is.

For those of you that don't know yet, I was asked to volunteer at White Memorial Church with the young adults. An opportunity I didn't want to turn down. So now I'm working with young people in two churches on the weekend, which takes a lot of my energy. Sunday is my only real day off. At least with the Indo church, I have plenty of leaders to work with that make my my job as a coordinator much easier when I can't be there. At the White, we're struggling because though it's a bigger church, there are far less young people there than Azusa. So it's become my job there to grow the young adult group, beginning in Sabbath School. We're doing okay and slowly growing.

Concordia University accepted me into their graduate school and now I'm working on my Masters in Education. Sweeeeet! I take classes every Tuesday from 4:30-8:30pm. Yeah 4 straight hours! And I'm the only guy with 11 other women in the class. I feel like I don't belong, especially since most of them are older with much teaching experience. But hey I have much to learn and maybe it's a good thing that I'm getting this done early. And surprisingly, I spent a lot of time in different libraries over the break. Something I hardly did when I was younger. Now I love it!

But yeah, today was great day. We played volleyball at Heritage Park, East vs. West. At first I didn't think that many people were going to show up because it looked like it was going to rain. But we had a good turnout! West came prepared, as always. The East barely had enough players. We played 6 on 6 best of out of 5 games and man good times. Whenever Jerry Sagala is on your team, you can't help but just laugh. The guy is hilarious! We ended up losing to the East team in 4 games. Our record falls to 3-1 while theirs improves to 1-3. West has won softball, football and soccer while East grabbed their first win today in volleyball.

Well that's all I feel like posting for today. There is one other thing on my mind but that's personal and there's only a few people I can talk to about that. Good luck guessing what that is. Have a great week everyone!
