Mi trabajo cont'd

I'm not sure how many entries I'll have with this title but thought I should update you! I got my job description (don't know the spanish translation for that) this week. It's crazy how excited I was to have someting in writing with hours and everything! It helps me realize how task-oriented I am! That day(maybe it continued to the next) was actually a great balance. That night we began a sonship study that brought back to my mind important points of my saving faith. The next morning we were able to flesh out those ideas and how they apply to our lives here. So before I was able to jump into a little more brainstorming more specific to what I will be doing I was able to reorient my thinking. Lori said some great things about us loving our work and that the hours hopefully will flow out of that- great perspective- that is what I want but I was almost tempted to treat it with the same attitude as my first job. (not always pleasant) So the specific things I'll be doing for now are women's ministry at Santa Anita- and any diaconal ministry that comes from that, disciple children Wednesday nights, help develop a jovenes ministry, teach English to kids in the Cristo Salvador project and some adults in Salamanca, volunteer at a feeding program in my neighborhood, and continue helping at the children's sunday school and of course keep up with you guys! Sounds like a full week huh! I'm excited to get things going! Please pray that God would continue to give me the love I need to pour out on these folks, to help remember names, give me good ideas and clear teaching, and would continue to improve my Spanish as a read and speak it! Thanks so much you guys!

It's such a great feeling to learn more about your work while you are in Peru and to apply it to the ministries throughout your time there. Your always in my thoughts and prayers Susan! Love you!
