Hey y’all! This week has honestly been so eventful, and I just had to share everything that’s been going on. We kicked things off with our Philippians 2 testing, which definitely had all of us stressed out and studying like crazy. It felt like such a big deal, and the pressure was real—but in the best twist ever, we all ended up passing! That alone made the week feel like a huge win, and the excitement afterwards was such a relief. Especially because we would get excited every time someone passed!
Then came the formal, and oh my goodness; it was such a blast. Not only did we get dressed up and enjoy a super fun evening together, but we were actually served by our staff and some special guests, which made the whole night feel extra meaningful and unique. The food was incredible—like, way better than expected—and afterwards we had a dance party that was just insanely fun. Being on a music fast means that literally any song that plays feels like the best song ever, so everyone was singing along and just having the best time. It was one of those nights where you can’t stop smiling.
Even though Philippians 2 brought a lot of stress, this week has genuinely been a highlight for me. A huge part of that has been getting to spend more time with our Catalyst, the Reed’s! We first met them at SoCal, and ever since then it’s been so great connecting with them—hanging out, talking, laughing, and just getting to know them and their kids on a deeper level. They’ve been such a blessing and have made this season even sweeter.
Anyway, that’s a little glimpse into my week. Praying for all of you and sending lots of love!
