Busy-ness

I can't believe it is already the middle of May! Time flies when you're having fun...

Updates:

I FINALLY quit my waitressing job! Considering I don't live in Chicago anymore, it didn't make a lot of sense to still work in Chicago. I'm still doing things at Risen Savior in Chicago mainly because I want to stay closely connected to the people until I actually fly out of the country. So in the meantime, I am traveling around the Midwest and staying with friends and family in Ohio. I haven't "lived" somewhere since January.

This week, I am going from Chicago to Michigan to Ohio and speaking at a couple different churches. I'm talking at a youth retreat on Friday and Saturday, which is all new to me. I'm great with 6 year olds, but I have yet to see what happens with 16 year olds.

Then, on Sunday, I am talking at VNC, which the church I grew up in. I'm really excited about this because I've known so many of the people there for years. I have a 30 minute presentation to share with them that will take us right into the heart of Bolivia.

I am seriously aiming to leave the country in July. I just decided to head out with FBS (myspace.com/fbs) one last time at the end of June just for Cornerstone... I can't miss Cornerstone! I gotta get the rock 'n roll out of my system before I move to South America. :)
