University Ministries Leave an Imprint

The Shades Team has been gone about a 2 weeks. Life has been super busy and I'm very encouraged by the effects of this specific team. We're still talking about how fun they were, the encouragement they brought and how great it was to watch my life and my surroundings, my day-in-day-out, my challenges, my all through their eyes. They reminded me of why I was called here, they reminded me that it's ok to cry. They reminded me that God really is alive and active here. I know those things but it's nice to be reminded and confirmed/affirmed by others.
Thank you Shades University Ministries! Looking forward to hearing how God uses this experience to further the Kingdom of God both in South Africa and in Birmingham, Alabama!

Here are some photos from their week with us:
