Hey friends,

There’s not much going on right now in the life of this freshman! Little siblings weekend was this past weekend.  It was great to see all of my friends younger brothers and sisters getting a little look at the college life!  I am the youngest of my family, so I didn’t have any siblings to invite, but it did seem like everyone that came really had a blast!

Okay, so maybe I fibbed a little when I said there wasn’t much going on with me! This weekend a few friends and I went to the school’s production of The Laramie Project, which was phenomenal! The production is made up of 8 actors who portray 66 characters and details the trial of the death of Matthew Sheperd.  It was an extremely moving production, and all the members of the cast did a magnificent job.

Hmm, let’s see, what else is going on in the life of Me at NCC? This summer I have been granted the opportunity to travel to Uganda and Kenya with a group of four other NCC students to do missions work through the Department of Ministry and Service (I’ll write a more detailed blog about this later). I’M SO PUMPED. This will actually be my second time going to Africa, the first time I was there was this past summer. I went to Mali for two weeks to help out in a bush hospital for women and children, and also work directly with malnourished children in some of the villages surrounding one of Mali’s main towns, Koutalia. Needless to say, I’m so excited for this year to end and to get back to Africa!!! But as for now, I should really get back to studying!

Yep! I think that’s it for now friends! Enjoy the beautiful spring-time weather and leave comments!
