Wow

Okay so I've been in school at SBU for a week now. So far so good. It was definitely a challenge to have to leave my family and friends behind back at home and I miss them all very much, but I think I am adapting to the atmosphere here very well. With God's grace I can hopefully continue to do well here.

God has blessed me with an awesome roommate that is super kind and accomodating to our living situation...our room is not very big! Haha but we are definitely making the most of it. I think that God has big plans for my time here at SBU and I pray that I may continue serving Him in whatever way He needs. I have quite a course load so hopefully I can do well in all of them this semester.

I have all been through a few other challenges and odd situations in my new life here, and I won't go into detail, but please pray for me so that I can stay strong in this time where it is a little difficult learning how to live on my on.

Until Next Time....
In Christ,
Katlyn

Closing Time

I'm so enthralled by the grace of God. I just came back from my last trip officially as a youth at my church. Honestly, I can't believe 6 years have passed since my journey began with my youth group at South County. It has been a crazy 6 years; filled with everything from pranks to drama that I desperately tried to avoid. God has most definitely used my experiences at South County to really grow nearer to him in my walk and I'm truly thankful for each blessing, trial, temptation, etc that He has put me through. There are so many people who have helped me in my path to where I am now....I can't believe how far I've come! To God be the glory!
