So I had recently come back from Marianist L.I.F.E. Pacific 2009 and what an experience it was. It was interesting to see things from the other side, and to see the impact that it has had on the kids' lives that went this year.
Coming back to L.I.F.E. has put things into perspective. It is amazing the lives that this program has touched being so that 6 people who were on staff went through the L.I.F.E. program. God works in mysterious ways and I was able to connect back with my mentor Frank "Big Boi" Ross. Being back here has shown me how much I love working with kids, high school kids especially and how important it is that there be guides for them in their faith journey. I am possibly looking into counseling, or youth ministry as a calling. I am thankful for all the blessings that God has provided me with over the past couple of weeks. From the new friends and family, to the reaffirmation of my current friends and family and those who I no longer keep in touch with.
Back to life now...and I was reading over the comments of people watching our set from Body Rock (yes I know that was a month ago but we just performed that set for the last time in Elk Grove, good times) and people are getting the message on their own and its amazing. It truly is art and I am proud to be a part of it.
