Module 2

My financial partners know...
that I love what I'm doing and that I am very grateful for their support. Many of my supporters have mentioned that they thoroughly enjoy the prayer letters I sent them, which is roughly every month. I always make sure to close my letters with a note of thanks, sharing that all he growth and I experiencing would not be possible without their servant attitude to the Lord and partnership in my ministry. My financial partners also know that Micah and I are on a tight budget.

About half of my ministry partners are not yet aware of my Summer Project in Milan... This is something I hope to change in the immediate weeks.


My sleep, exercise and eating habits are...
fluctuating. I'm finding myself in a period of transition, considering the fact that I am 22 years old and a recent college grad who is married to a graduate student. As a result (and like a number of CCC staff, I imagine) I haven't yet escaped the college lifestyle. I'm thinking that someday things will become more regular - I'll know what it means to eat right and exercise consistently while keeping a regular sleep schedule - but I may be entertaining an illusion. I can't imagine living a life anything close to "regular" once kids are in the picture!

In all seriousness, I need the most help with controlling my eating habits and finding motivation to exercise more often than once a month(!) Currently, I'm not counting calories and I'm not as concerned about enjoying some treats here and there. My thinking behind my diet and exercise habits are as follows: I was a hardcore athlete for 6 years. I rarely let myself indulge in sweets for all that time. And being in amazing shape was my practically my purpose in life. I was always planning things around practices, track meets, morning runs, etc... I'm entitled to a couple of years of relaxation. I can see myself exercising more in the near future, but hust not yet.


Taking a day with the Lord is...
a great idea, but easier said than done. Thus far, I have only scheduled one DWTL and I wouldn't exactly say that was an astounding success. I would love to take a day with the Lord every month - or at least 1/2 a day. Hopefully I can schedule one in asap!

Either that or I think it would be most beneficial if the Ops team, or a number of us in the office, take some time to prayer and mediate together. I definitely think that we do not spend enough time in prayer as a team! There were times last semester when I wanted to get people together and pray specifically about BWC, but I didn't exactly share my thoughts.
