1 Thing Finished!

Hey guys!

Today marks the last day of my intensive discipleship class and my last night at Wheaton until August. Although there was a lot of work and I felt out of place at times (I was one of the 2 undergraduate students), I learned SO much in that class on how to be a disciple of Christ. Seriously...that was probably one of my best friends classes ever! I learned a lot!

This week has been a hard, yet good week. Even though I had this class, I had time before and after class to spend time with my Heavenly Father. In fact, that was the goal of all of the assignments was to meet God. I didn't bring my music with me because I thought I wouldn't have time to practice, but I did check out some of the music from the library. I was able to practice some this week, but not much. I was able to finish all the papers that are due for this class this week though! I'm really blessed for this time of rest, because I haven't had the chance to rest since probably Christmas break, so I am enjoying this time to be still and relax :)

This week, I was really blessed with a very cool discovery. In my discipleship class, I met a pastor from Indonesia...and it turns out we were related! Yeah, not joking! His wife is my mom's cousin. WOW! After a whole week of class, I really believe that it was God's plan for me to be a part of this class - to meet my family who lives at Wheaton. It was amazing! So thankful for God's perfect plan!

Now, I'm headed back to Toledo (tomorrow afternoon) to spend the rest of the summer doing my music internship. I'm really looking forward to being home because it's been lonely here at Wheaton. No one is here and I don't know too many people who are here. BUT, it's been a wonderful week making new friendships with those in my class and my roommates here in this apartment. It's been quite a blessing. But, now I'm heading home to continue the work God has called me to do. I'm looking forward to being able to practice piano again. Preparations for graduate school and senior recital will officially begin!

Thank you so much for reading this blog and for the support you have given to me! I hope you are all having a wonderful summer! May God bless you all!

Love,
Andrea
