First week of school is completed

Whew! The first week of school is complete! It is so hard to get back in the grind of school, but I am one week closer to graduation in December! My internship has been so incredible. I had the opportunity to sit in on my first group on Wed. This was an incredible group. It is a survivors group so all the members had great stories and were so receptive to me coming and sitting in. I have been blessed with the opportunity to facilitate this group, probably starting in late February and doing a 6 to 8 week series with them. This blows my mind because I am only an undergraduate student and not many get the chance to say that they are facilitating a group. Also, I have been asked to go on a couple's retreat at the end of March and facilitate some groups there as well. The other huge blessing in this is that they told me they would love for my wife to come as well and be a volunteer that weekend. So, we will get to retreat as well! I am so lucky that in this internship I get to be who I truly am, but get to learn from others passions that lie within my heart. I am truly blessed and can't help but smile everyday, because I have such a wonderful gift in my life that is helping me find where my hear truly stands.
