Getting Ready

So we are getting ready to leave for Poland in one week. I am really excited to meet Alicja's family and see some friends. We have had some changes in our plans but we will still enjoy ourselves. I will post from Poland when I have WiFi and keep you all updated.

New Life

We take granted thinking that Christ is is Jesus's last name. Christ is who he became when he was crucified. Acts 2:36 Today, love each other as it was intended, with the love of Christ in us.

It is hard to believe that 2 1/2 years have gone by since my last post. I ws thinking recently about starting to blog again. I was hoping there wa an App for iPhones, thinking that it would be easier if I had better access. I am just going to do it. We are leaving fr Poland in 26 days and would live to keep people updated and sharing pictures. We will be gone fr a month, you can find me on skype if you are in or around Poland and maybe we can get together while Alicja and I are in Poland. I am really excited about going, as I have never been outside of our continent. We are going to SLOT art fest and down to Krakow but most of our time will be spent in Warsawa with Alicja's family and friends.

God is doing some great things in my life. I am no longer doing massage full-time at Ivy Spa. Back in October of 2010 I felt God's tug on me very strong about going back to counseling and he has opened the door very wide. Since February 2011 I have been working at Faith Family Recovery Center in Hastings, Mn. it is about a 45 min drive every day, but well worth it. Faith Family is a Christian outpatient program that provides chemical health assessments, individual and group counseling to peole with addictions. I am so blessed to have a great boss and teacher as well as great co-workers. I am still doing massage on-call and when someone needs a shift covered but not as much as I was. I am learning a lot from great teachers like Dave Ridell an great friends that had been involved and are currently involved in my journey. I har learned what it means to have deep meaningful relationships with people and deeper intimacy with God.

I look forward to posting more in the coming days and weeks, please feel free to contact me here or on Facebook.
