Since I last wrote in here I ended my internship.  It was a long year, but very worthwhile.  It is an experience I will never forget.  I know that it has really prepared me for parish ministry.  There are things that I learned on how I wnat to do things in a church of my own (God willing) and there are things that I learned how I don’t want to go about doing things.

One thing that I know that I want to focus on during my ministry in the parish is an involvement with the youth of the church.  I know that was not a focus for me while on internship, but I loved being with the kids in the afterschool program and now as a youth director — basically revamping a program. I am very excited. 

I am having my first youth/family meeting tonight.  I am kinda nervous, I always am nervous when I am going in a situtation like this for the first time.  But I am sure things are going to go well. 

 I wish that I could update about everything but there is too much. I hope to get a regular blogging schedule.

one thing that I am excited for is the release of the iphone.   Now I SO wish I could get one but I am waiting for two reasons.  1 – there are things that I use daily on my treo that I would not want to give up and 2 — $600 is a lot for a phone.  Now when you add the video components and the ipod components that might be worth it but I don’t have that kind of money now. 

 Anyway, that’s all I got, I have to go home now and cook dinner.
