Here's an update on Appalachian Outreach.
Turns out the $1000 scholarship and $2500 for the ten weeks fell through. Apparantely TCAC (Tennessee Community something or other) expected to support 50-60 workers this summer. It bumped down to 20. I was one of the unfortunate who was bumped.
So now, I'm back to $75 a week, which is still a blessing! With the economy the way it is, I'm surprised I was even able to get a job. I have a job where I'm actually helping people and spreading the Gospel through my actions. How awesome is that?
George, my financial advisor (sorta like kinda), is doing all he can to get me more money. I think that's great. Even if I don't get a lot of money, though, I'm just glad to serve Jesus this summer.
God is faithful and He knows what's going and will figure this whole thing out. I'm glad I have Him on my side. I don't know what I would do without Him.
Oh! Here's some good news: I had a little surprise Thursday. My article about the smoking tax made the front page of the Vision!!!! How awesome is that?! God is so good! I saw the paper and I was like "woah, wait. That's my article!" It was pretty sweet.
Today I'm just chilling out and not doing any homework or studying. I'll probably fill out a good portion of an application I need to do. Other than that, though, nothing will be done by me.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
