Living in dorm with 26 teenage girls is bound to be full of adventrue and excitement. I have enjoyed getting to know each of the girls and they have truely been a blessing to me. One of my favorite things we do every Sunday eveing is have "Dorm Fellowship." It is a time to connect with each other. Sometimes we just hang out or play games. Other times we share what God is teaching us through the week and pray for eachother. But not matter what we always end with Sundays! Ice Cream Sundays on Sunday! What could be better? Not much!
Yesterday in "Dorm Fellowship" we sang some praise songs and then we splint into classes. Palmgarten only has sophmores, juniors, and seniors. I had the seniors and it was such a blessing to hear how this past week, spiritual emphis week, had an impact on them. One girl shared that she is learning how she needs to turn to God before she turns to her friends. Another spoke about her heart for her friend who is going through a tramatic experience. It is so awesome to see their desire to live for Christ and make a positive impact on those around them.
I have to say one of my favorite parts of my "job" is greeting the girls after school. Here Elva, the dorm Mom and I are greeting some of the girls. It is amazing the wonderful things you can learn about the life of a teen while they eat a snack or sit on a swing!
