  Mr. Noodles on Friday.. three course meal on Sunday
Update on my double life... this is most difficult part of my week. I had this crazy time on outreach on Friday night meeting with some of the cities most broken and hungry people. Today however- I was wined and dined ( I didn't drink wine ;))... two forks, two spoons, three courses.. three drinks, as part of a welcoming and get to know you lunch for Pam and myself at St. Mary's. The conversation was ridiculous.. and the whole time I thought about how so many people have nothing. I think this is something I'm going to have to learn to deal with.. meeting with all kinds of people, and engaging myself in all kinds of conversation. This is real training.

Mmmmhmmm. I like it. We can be so comfortable in "the right way" or the way "we've percieved" evangelism to be that we forget that God can work outside our comforts. Surprisingly, I was caught off guard by my placement, because the way I've done things, were NOT working. Adaptation is key.

Wow, Erin, it seems as though you're having an incredible experience.. goodness. It would be tough, seeing people who have nothing to people who have pretty much everything. Wow. Keep it up girl! Bless you :)

P.S- Chasing the Dragon is absolutely amazing.

Erin, i miss you a lot...!
 
Hey Erin,

So glad you're being stretched in your placement. I'll be praying for you!

The more I learn...the less I know...

"...we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us." Romans 5:3-5
