College is full of opportunities for everyone. It is often seen as a fresh start, a clean slate, an opportunity to try new things and do what you love. The opportunities that I have had since coming to school are absolutely incredible. I have gotten so involved (but not overwhelming myself!), and I am learning so much from my activities and am meeting so many new people!
Obviously, I have become quite involved in the campus ministry, and I just love what I have been able to do through that. I have volunteered a few times for the Malaria Initiative that is run through SLCM (Spiritual Life Campus Ministry), and I have been able to learn a lot about malaria and how is affecting our world, plus how we can help prevent it! I have also been able to participate in Bible studies, retreats and of course go to chapel, Sunday services, and Eucharist services! I am so thankful for the opportunities that I've had through SLCM!
I am also involved in choir here, which has been so much fun for me! We do so many different things, from talent shows to run-out performances at local churches, and it has been a new, unique experience! I am so excited for what is in store for me in choir, particularly our Christmas program! It will be, by far, the largest choir production I will have been involved in!
This evening, I am off to a conference in Milwaukee about leadership in service, yet another opportunity for me! I am so excited to apply what I will learn at the conference here on campus! I am so thankful for the opportunities I am getting here, as well as how bright my future looks right now because of them! I feel like, right now, my life is headed in the right direction, and God is opening up so many doors for me!! Which is why I am so thankful for opportunity in my life right now! I cannot wait to see where the next four years take me!
