Spring is flying by! Come see what I've been up to!

LEXINGTON TRIP
We started our month off with a trip to Lexington, Kentucky helping run a spring break camp with our Lexington office. It was a fun Residency trip with Elisha and Thiago. We celebrated Easter there with sweet friends, new and old.
Camp was perfect! We had a great sized group, and I worked with our Zone 1 (5-7 year olds) kiddos with my friend J.J. It made me really excited to run our camps in Chicago this summer.
The Lexington office has lots of cool and exciting things going on these days! They have staff members living in several neighborhoods, and they are super involved with the communities. Getting a taste of the Urban pillar of the ministry was special. We played pick-up in their neighborhoods almost every afternoon after camp!
The relationships each member of that office has developed with the kids and families around them was so evident. God is moving tremendously there, and it was awesome to see the platform to share the Gospel present in these neighborhoods.

SPRING SEASON
Our spring club season is back in full swing! I am helping Elisha with the 2016 girls and Trey with his 2011 boys. It has been great to see the kids back on the field more, and it has been really awesome to be developed as a coach more. I have been learning a lot from Trey and Mitch especially. They have been so patient!

COMMUNITY
During the colder months, we spent lots of time with friends. It is starting to get warmer, but we are still soaking up as much community time as we can squeeze in. It is too busy of a season!
I have really enjoyed hanging out with the Barclay family this month. I have been in and out a lot because of travel, but the relationships we are developing there are so sweet and refreshing.

GEORGIA
As you may know, I have been exploring what the next season of my life looks like after I wrap up my Residency. This month, I was able to go on a trip to visit a school in Georgia I am considering coaching for. Please be praying over this decision and potential transition for the coming year!
