we are now finally settled in our indianapolis one bedroom apartment. we moved in a week ago today and fell like it is almost home. i definately think it will take some time getting used to the new surroundings. i am not necessarily a person who loves the city but there are some things that are starting to grow on me. we are close to jenny's family which is nice. her brother, sister in law and two kids are only about 7-10 miles away. we are going to have some good friends living close by as well.

life is anew and fresh and i am looking forward to what life brings. i started working for the ymca as an assistant site director at a before and after school program. i think it will be a good job to go along with grad school. i will be starting on-site at the iwu keystone building in the ministerial leadership. i look forward to the program and should be the type of masters that i really will enjoy.

we started attending fall creek wesleyan church and i have been asked to help lead a 5th and 6th grade program there. we are lauching it on wednesday. it should work out pretty well. steve bray has assembled a really good team to lead it. on it is a 5th and 6th grade school counselor, a childrens book author, the head of the childrens deparment in the wesleyan church, a youth pastor (me) and a couple of young kids fresh out of high school. i think it has a real opportunity to reach a group that other then young adults are the most unreached age group in the church. a little old for kids club but still not old enough for youth.

so life is moving on going forward. it will be different then what i am used to. God is changing me alot through the process of the last few months. he is opening my world up to "ministry" and "service" which i will be addressing in future blogs. as for me it is almost 1am and i woke up at 6 so i am quite tired. so i am out for the night.
