Happy Friday, St. Peter!  I’m hoping there are still some Portillos leftovers “left over” in your fridge after our Dine and Donate last night. You had that restaurant packed all evening long!  Praise God for a fun opportunity to share a meal together and build some community within our classrooms!

The Goffron Express needed to leave the event fairly early to get home for an evening baseball game. Not sure if this is true for you, but I live and breathe by my Google Maps. With traffic and construction status being questionable at best in and around our area, I need my app to tell me how long the drive will be while also offering up new and exciting routes any given evening. It’s my guiding light anytime I get behind the wheel; however, spiritually I have to look to the Bible and other individuals of faith as my guiding lights on how I should be carrying myself as a Christ-follower. Our theme verse from Philippians 2:15 reminds us, “Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life.” Pastor Randy gave a great message in chapel this past Wednesday reminding us that the light of Christ lives within us and we have the opportunity and choice to let it shine as an attempt to pass it along to others. Our families, friends, teammates, and classmates are looking for a light, something bright that provides hope and joy rooted in God’s eternal Word.

Have a blessed weekend!
