| Tonight was our last Pendergraph Women's Ministry event of the year, and my last ever since I'm graduating next week! I have been on the board of this ministry to women of the seminary community all year. It has been a blessing, yet sometimes a challenge, as I have learned more about ministering with and to women through this experience. I must say I teared up a little, thinking about leaving here is so exciting yet so bittersweet too!
Tonight my pastor's wife, Jaylynn, gave an encouraging message about discipleship/mentoring women. We (the girl's on the board) decided to each take the time to decorate one table dedicated to a woman who has been an encouragement as a mentor in our lives. I picked you Miss Becky! You have always been a friend, mentor, mom and sister to me all at the same time. You are gracious enough to open you home and even your wallet when I am in need! I know that we'll forever be friends because of God's grace. So thank you for your encouragement and love throughout the years! I can't wait to live with you for the next weeks and spend more time with you and the fam! So here is my table dedicated to you....nothing fancy, but something special!
I used the Beth Moore book from that time we went to the via satellite conference at the Naz, and the Bible study we went through! Can you believe I still have them? It's neat to read through and see where I was with my walk with the Lord, I don't like the term 'baby Christian' but that was me!
And that fun pic of us from my visit home!
I love you!

| So what to say what to say? Some updates: I am today officially beginning my last semester as a college student...Lord willing. I may be taking 20 hours but it's nothing I can't handle! ( the Lord alone is my strength!) My job is good yet stressful at times. I did get another raise, praise God! I want to graduate soooooo bad! I have a sweet little niece that I don't see much even though she literally lives a stones throw away (granted, you'd need Arnold Swarzenegger to throw the stone). Either way, she's a stinker...typical Dilley kid. It's a full moon tonight....very cool It's as cold as Ohio this week in Kentucky I got a brand new beautiful desk that I love! And I need to eat dinner but am afraid b/c I got sick again this morning! Blessings to you all! | | |
| So my professor was saying the other day that blogs can be very self-centered. I realized that I was very much into boring people with details on this thing. I want to use my xanga in a more encouraging and God-honoring way. Not because it makes you super spiritual, but because God should always be the one who is getting the attention. Saying that I would still like to update people on what's going on in Heather's world. Well to put it lightly, it's crazy. I work full time at world market and actually picked up two morning shifts at Lifeway for the semester. I struggle with providing for myself but in the end I really know God is providing for me. I have been called to full time ministry (no I do not want to be a pastor!) but as I am almost finished with ministry college (I'm actually a senior this year!) I keep wondering if He's called me to be bi-vocational. Everybody has been asking me what I want to do when I graduate next May. It's such a tough question. I know I would love to move back to Ohio and do ministry there. But also what if I have to stay in Louisville? I don't really like this city but I would love to go to seminary but I know that I can't afford it. It would not be wise.But God will direct my paths, I just have to be patient. What I really want to do is marry a man who is in full time ministry so that I can minister alongside him and do women's ministry and maybe just work part time to pay off student loans. But don't the Scriptures say delight in the Lord and He will direct your paths? I want this to be my heartcry... I don't want my mind to wander and think about what life COULD be like. I must continue to pray for His will to be done! Other things going on: My brother and sis-in-law will be parents to little Emma Lynne in November. I will be called Auntie Heather and hope to see her lots! I am excited, yet I still struggle with the same old issues of feeling left out. My brother is married and going to be a dad and I feel so far away from the joys of marriage and parenting. I really hope to adopt someday too. That's a huge pull on my heart. Also, I am so happy to be involved in a women's ministry here at the school. I am the only single girl on the board and most of the women that attend are married with kids but it just goes to show that I can still let God use me to minister to these women. I have such a heart for women's ministry that I never imagined having. It's a gift from God and I'm so thankful! Here are some pics from our first event: The Welcome Wagon!   
 I like this picture :)
I will stop my rambling and self-centered blog now....to God be all the glory!!!!!!! Hope everyone is well! | | |
