and now for the other coast

Two weeks ago, I moved catty corner across North America—from the Pacific North West (Vancouver, BC) to the Atlantic South East (Jacksonville, FL).  Having finished my MA in Theological Studies at Regent College, I was looking for a job in the States for a bit before probably doing more school. I have taken a role in Admissions, Recruitment, and Advising at the Jacksonville commuter campus of another Christian college, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. 

It has been a blessing to be in a role that is already drawing fruitfully on my peculiar mix of experiences, skills, and gifts. I also thrive in close knit teams that share a focused mission, so working with the handful of committed staff here has been a pleasure in these first weeks. I am looking forward to how God continues to lead me in this season—and to draw me into what he is doing both in this community in Jacksonville and in his world.




 Did I mention how lovely it is to be somewhere warm, sunny, and beachy? It is such a gift.
