Where are you going?: The here and now

So, I realized that a lot of blogs are talking about this big, upcoming thing; China. Well I wanted to write a blog that was talking a little bit about what I'm doing now.

The other night was my last Venture. Of course I KNEW George was going to surprise me with something, because would always talk about how sad he was that I was leaving, so I knew it was just like him to make a a big deal out of it. So, after the program was over, I saw George cueing Grace for a video that I did NOT know of...and that was it. He made a slide show of me in the last couple of years in Shockwave and Venture. I started crying right away, and realized how much I was gonna miss everything and everyone from my last two years. I know I'm only going for a few months, but I'm in such a sweet spot right now that it's hard to walk away from a group of people that support you and pull for you, all the time, no matter what.

So, here a couple of pictures of the last two years. Starting with Mississippi, with all of my Mexico trips, pictures of the dteam in-between and my last year on staff.

My d-team, is one of a kind. Seriously. I know that we, as the d-team have told the story a million times, but when I met them in Mexico in 2006, I don't think I've ever felt as strongly about a group of people as I did them. In 2006 I was still a student(which doesn't excuse my behavior towards them) and was rude to them. Now, they weren't the most understanding group back. When I became an intern I remember I was giving the choice between two d-teams; both of which couldn't stand me. So, I chose "the freshmen." I didn't know this would be a the life changing decision. That next Sunday, the girls were walking around and asking who "Megan" was. I asked them why they wanted to know and they said because "she was their new dteam leader." Then, I broke the news that their dteam was in fact, me. The looks on their faces was hilarious. And thats where it all started.

So, here are some pictures.

Mississippi. The trip that broke my heart for the first time. Seeing people there, meeting people from here, and realizing that life is worth more than what we see with our eyes and that God wants so much more from us.
