Where's everybody now? (continued)

If you missed the first round (Colleen, Katherine, etc.) click here and here (Liz). Oh yeah, and remember: 100 word limit! (more or less)

Sarah: Hey all,

This term has been quite a challenge, but I've been learning a lot through it all. My tolerance level for spiciness has gone up through eating tons of spicy food with my Middle Eastern and Indian coworkers at my practicum, where I've been thrown into the immigrant and refugee experience through the people we assist at our agency. Slowly I've been fattening up for the winter at family dinners since being home- my grandmas just celebrated their 81st and 80th bdays. Still figuring out what I'll do when I graduate this year, but I know for sure that I'll be in Waterloo for the summer when my program is done. See you around, esp the Eastern WC ppl!

Take care, sarah

Olga: Hey Guys!
Hope you're doing well and had a great time celebrating the birth of our King and Saviour! I had a slow start to my break as one of my exams kept on getting postponed for various reasons but ever since then I've been enjoying the days off with my family. I may be finishing school after this upcoming semester and am very excited! I'm sorry that I can't make it out on the 30th to see many of you since we're having a family reunion on that day but I hope to see some of you guys at the new year's party at winter conference. I love you guys and miss you! God bless!

Veronika: Dear Friends :)

I miss everyone SO MUCH! It was really hard to come back to Toronto and my transition was…no thank you! lol! But it has been a super exciting and colourful semester. I have been made the Socials Coordinator at York C4C and getting to know people at school has been easier than expected. I have also decided to go back to my old church to share the spirit-filled life with them because God is sending me back *sigh*. I am also praying about sharing KGP with 5 of my non-Christian friends and going to East Asia this summer.

Love ya my siblings in Christ!!!!

Tabitha: I'm doing a full course load and working part-time, so it's been hard to focus on campus ministry. I enjoy building community, but so far it's been a bit of a struggle. York seems like a pretty spiritually open place, so I'd love to invest in some crazy "all out" ministry this semester -- a coffeehouse possibly? I'm on the worship team which is totally fun and leading prayer which is so fun as well! Serving God has just been such a privilege and pleasure because I'm not obligated to do anything. I've chosen to serve in these ways. Anyhow, at my workplace my boss caught the title of my book, Jesus among other gods (with Jesus in huge letters), and so I ended up having a spiritual conversation with him during the middle of my shift. Can you say amazing?! God has been nuzzling me this last month (I hope that's biblical..). Anyhow, keep pressing on!!
