Year 2

I'm back on campus at Arizona State! It's been amazingly beautiful already. Welcome week(s) is completed and Bible studies will start within the next 2 weeks. I remember being on campus for the first time as a missionary last year and being completely scared...well, nothing has changed. 15,000 freshman isn't exactly comforting! haha. I do feel more prepared and more excited than ever to be working with all the women I had last year. 

Here's a run-down of what's been going on:
Playing Shaving Cream Baseball with around 50 students on campus!

I was attacked with shaving cream. :/

Then I got thrown into a fountain. Gross
Team ASU! This was on Freshman move-in day.
We handed out water and post cards with Mass times on them from 9-3pm.


My Roommates!
Me, Lesley, Marisa, Katie, and Emily
This year, my roommates and I decided to start an all-women's night called the House of Gold. House of Gold is another name for Mary. As women, we want to immolate Mary in everything we do! On our first House of Gold night we learned about why we decided to call the night House of Gold, made bracelets with a medal of Mary on them, and prayed! 
Over 30 women came to our first House of Gold!

Emily, my teammate and roommate painted this beautiful image of
 Our Mother for our House of Gold!


Mu Epsilon Theta, the Catholic sorority, has letters for campus!

The team at Passport! Passport is an  organizational fair for students. 

Our student missionary pool party!
I made a volleyball net out of plastic bags. :)

The team hiking on a day retreat!

The ladies of Mu Epsilon Theta at their fist meeting of the year!

Tabling after Mass to share information on our Catholic Sisterhood!

33 women are considering joining Mu Epsilon Theta Catholic Sorority this semester!
Please pray for them!

We have over 200 new students who have said they're interested in joining a Bible study. Please pray that these students remain open. I will continue to work with my women from last year and I'm starting a graduate study! I've been praying to God for Him to send me older students and He sure did! I'm already seeing God's grace being poured out at ASU this year. Thank you for your support, blessings, and love. 

All for You, Lord.
