So, Campus House, this is my first and last time writing a blurb for the staff blog! I am still reeling a little bit from my amazing trip to Arizona with a wonderful group of women from Campus House. It was pretty special to share so much time with a group of ladies that love Jesus and love to serve other people. I felt so lonely when I got back and the eight girls were not with me 24/7 anymore! I consider myself a introverted person, but for those 10 days I truly enjoyed being with them! It is crazy to me to think about taking one of them out of the mix. Each was vital to our group dynamics and each worked so hard for the mission we served! If any of you girls are reading this- I give you props! O Schnap!- love “Leader”

Along with processing the mission trip, I am also getting ready to move back to West Lafayette, IN in two weeks! I can not believe how fast this year went! And I am truly amazed at how God pursued me during it! Sometimes I feel like I was chased down by Love and wrapped up tight in it’s arms as I spent my year here. I grew so much in how I viewed my fellow believers in Christ, how I loved God, and how I viewed my life and how I can best serve God in it. It has truly been a blessing to be here and to know all of you! You are a great group of wonderful people and I am so happy to know you all! I love you!

Well, part of having one week left, I have many tasks to complete before I am officially done with the internship, so I must get back to them now! Have a wonderful summer and I promise to come visit a lot!

God bless
Rachel
