I visited my internship site-to-be this weekend. I took a few pictures, but this is the only one that came out reasonably well. My head is still swimming with all that I saw this weekend, so in no particular order here are some thoughts:
- I'm not sure that I could have designed a better internship site for myself. Maybe it is just the honeymoon phase, but wow.
- Over our very first lunch, my supervisor and I were finishing each other's sentences.
- I feel like I met a thousand people this weekend. I tried really hard to learn names. We will see how many actually stick.
- Charlottesville is a little town that has a lot of the features of a larger city.
- I cried in worship on Saturday night. First time in ages.
- I was really taken back by how whole church seems to have latched onto the same vision: love God, love each other, grow in Christ, go in Christ. Pretty good for an 11 word summary, no?
- I can't get away from Hivelys. Apparently, some people at my internship site know some of my grandfather's brothers and sisters and their kids.
- I'm really surprised by how many of the odd little things that I, on a whim, have learned how to do are going to come in handy on this mission trip.
