the shape of things to come.

Hey everyone! In case you were wondering - yes I am, in fact, alive. Sorry for the absence. As the semester went on and the Tennessee Williams Festival got closer, I just couldn't justify spending time on this blog, love it though I may. But I definitely plan on resurrecting it once summer starts (May).

Until then, though, I just wanted to get the word out about a few of the things that have been occupying me recently and that I'm very excited about. The vision that God put on my heart for French Quarter ministry is coming to fruition with a speed and passion that is wonderful and fairly jaw-dropping to witness. It looks like the first step to all this is going to be the community house that I blogged about a while back. (which, by the way, had the added bonus of finding me an amazing boyfriend a co-laborer for this shindig...yay for God working through the interwebz.)

So here is your sneak peek for the community house:


and here is the handbill for what's we're doing in the meantime:


and just for fun, here's a picture of me and Marc:


Ain't he handsome? =)

So yeah...if you love Jesus and have ever thought about moving to New Orleans, pray about this! And as always, e-mail me at pencil_dharma@yahoo.com if you have questions or want more info.

I still can't believe two of my friends randomly found each other, and it didn't even require my *awesome* matchmaking skills -- so cool! Good luck with this project -- I look forward to reading about its progress!!

Sorry it took me forever and a day to read this post! Wedding planning, graduating, fieldwork, and job searching are completely to blame. I can't wait to see what comes of that vision! Please, please keep me posted.
