Monday morning....I arrived at my apartment at 2:30. Got to bed at 3:30 after unloading and locating my bed stuff.....First staff meeting at church starts at 9:00 AM....
All lack of sleep aside, it was a great day. The LORD has brought me to this wonderful place and this awesome church, and today He gave me my marching orders. My new church is a church in transition, and God has called me to be a part of this change. The people I have met and begun to work with thus far are amazing and have been super helpful, but most of all, they have been patient (Especially our church's secretary) as I learn how to do things like use the phone system, fill out insurance forms, and practice using keys for locks....
I have also been very blessed with a phenomenal place to live, and I was able to really settle into my new home this evening. Between that and spending the day learning names and organizing my new office, I look forward to really beginning planning out this new ministry that God has brought me into.
Again, the LORD has answered my prayers and brought me safely to the Grand Rapids area, and even allowed the moving process to go relatively smoothly....My prayer now is that God would provide me with a starting point. I know what He wants me to do, and I have a billion ideas on how to do it, but I'm not sure where to start. Please pray for wisdom and discernment as I begin my ministry....
Taking the first step,
-B
