I heard that for the first time today. Britt coons called it a church and it made the difference to me. She didn't call it a ministry, she called it a church.
Tonight was the first time i felt like a was a part of Shack. I stayed for like 2 hours after and played mafia while a bunch of ppl played poker. Me and lou were determined to kill eachother, haha. Jessica and David(aka Bing) asked me if i would become a part of their house church (small group-ish thing) which is really cool. I felt like this was a more solid group of Shackers than normal, it was fun and refreshing. I feel like I belong to a church family again, and that makes me so wonderfully happy. I went tonight b/c of God, and i mean that in ever sense possible. I went to be with God and learn about Him, and i went b/c He wanted me to. It's amazing. I'm at a really good point in my life, and i don't say that lightly at all. I don't have many good points in my life, i usually have a lot of trouble and battles and stuff, and it usually is equal to the good stuff. Now, though, the good is SO out weighing the bad, and i think i just might make it through this thing called College. We'll see.
God Bless,
Love.

when good things happen to you, i find it more exciting than i do when good things happen to me.
i hope that makes sense.
i love you.
TOMORROW.. me and you and some caffeine?
you have found a good place. a solid community. i've seen so much come and go and happen at the shack in the past four years, but the love there has always remained. the shack was the best part of my college experience.
