And......I'm Back

Sorry all- life is nuts, you know what I'm talkin about.

Anyway for the first time in quite an eon I finally have time to blog... Hoo RAH!

So this is what God's up to around me:

PRITCHARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a small group leader in Pritchard Hall, the largest all male non military dorm this side of the Mississippi River, maybe you've heard of us. Its the biggest, smelliest, certanly most infamous dorm in the state of Virginia....and I'm absolutely in love with it. 5 or 6 years ago, nobody but freshmen lived here . They moved out as quick as they could because it sucked. This building was a Godless wasteland- a stereotypical all male college dorm. Then a few Christian guys felt God calling them to love on this place. The year after, more people came back to the Man Castle as it came to be known, then more the next year. Today we got a small group here in Pritchard that pulls from a crowd of 20 or so, and it seems like there's only going to be more upperclassmen coming in the future. There's so many guys, that we gotta split the small group to keep it small. SICK NASTY! Its been nothing but a joy to see God redeem this place and use it to bring freshmen and upperclassmen together in brotherhood over the short span I've lived here. We just launched a prayer group here in the dorm to unite all the different campus ministries involved with this building in prayer and for the last few weeks its been amazing. WE GOT A BLOG TOO, check it out- its pretty sweet.


Well that's all for today, i'll try to keep you all updated with life and such as we go on, keep nagging me to post stuff & hopefully I'll get a chance sometime laters.

PEACE!

Dude, how's your taint, or whatever it is that you broke/pulled? Let's go smoke crack over Thanksgiving break. By "smoke crack" I mean hang out. That's what the kids are saying these days.
