First Day

So starting a new job is a lot like the first day of a new semester. You get new supplies, pick a new seat and then the professors start handing out the syllabus. You meet lots of new people and figure out what life is going to look like for the foreseeable future.

All I can say is that the future looks bright from where I am sitting now, which is my office in the Outreach area at Mariners Church! My first day was filled with introductions and so many faces. I may be a little slow with the names the first week or so, but I am learning. The team had a welcome basket full of goodies for me and it included chocolate and lots of fun office treats. I got an official Mariners mug and Christie even got her own bag of goodies. Thanks to everyone for making me feel so welcome!!

This morning was story time and the entire staff gathers for an hour to celebrate victories won in the grind of daily ministry. How refreshing and encouraging to take a few moments out to share these stories. Lots more to do today…
