It's been a nice first full weekend here in Jackson. Yesterday Joe showed Kate, Kellie, and I the town...which mostly meant two malls and his house. The roads here are kind of odd, but little by little I'm becoming more familiar with them. I still get turned around fairly often though. Thank goodness for my tom tom.It's gotten me everywhere except Piccadilly for lunch today.It said it didn't exist. I should probably update it like Dad told me to a few weeks ago. Oops.
I know I put in my second post that the interns weren't as outgoing as I expected at first. That has all changed. We are getting to be really good friends--even with the people who live here that aren't interns. They are already almost like family.
We went to Redeemer Presbyterian for church this morning. It was a really nice service. Quite long, but well worth it. The music was great, and I took notes on the sermon. It didn't have much fluff to it; just a whole lot of Truth, which is sometimes hard to listen to, but vital. The speaker, who is a professor of religion here in town, preached the Word for sure. I haven't heard anything that solid for a while. I'm guessing we'll be going back. The people that made up the church were diverse in age, though there were probably more 20-30 somethings than anything. The choir was older- mostly 50+ I would guess, with a couple of younger people. There were less than 20 in the choir, but they had a big, contagious sound. Loved it.
Tomorrow's the first day of camp, and us girls have the jitters! We're all anxious to see what God's going to do, and who He will bring.
