I went to my home church this afternoon for the first time in about five weeks.
Between going home for my brother's graduation, having my own graduation, and being in Europe for three weeks, I've been gone for a little while.
It's a strange thing to show up and welcomed back--only to tell your church friends that you'll be moving to Boston in a month.
It was nice to be back, and to know that people missed me and will miss me.
I was so involved on campus over the last two years that I didn't really serve at church. I attended home group faithfully for two years and prayed quite earnestly for its members, but mostly church was the place where I gleaned rather than gave support.
I'd like to serve in a church when I move to Boston. I'll still be very involved at school--but that will be my job and I'll want something else in my life. Plus, I won't be a student anymore!
Thank you, ECV, for shaping the way I approached Divinity School and New Haven for the last 2 years. Thank you for being a community that wants to grow together in learning how to listen to God's voice, and for helping my ears become much sharper in this regard.
I'm grateful, and I promise I'll come back and visit.
