This morning I found out where I will be working. I will be splitting time between the recreation department and pastoral ministry. It's a really weird placement, because most volunteers are placed on the actualy resident floors, but I'm excited about it. Hopefully I'll be able to interact with the kids a lot as well as give them some guidance with the ministry. I don't really know what I'll be doing yet, but I'll find all that out on Monday.
As for my toe...I ended up getting 6 stitches, but because of the continued bleeding I went to another doctor today who rebandaged it and gave me some antibiotics. Outside of the doctor's offices, though, my fellow community members have been so helpful. They have basically waited on me hand n foot (and scolded me everytime my foot wasn't properly elevated). I really appreciate thier help. What a great group of people :)
I had ideas for things to do this weekend, but now it looks as though i'll be spending some time on this couch. Hopefully tomorrow ill get to a park or something for a while. Things are good though - this won't get me down. Peace.

Hi Zack,
Hope you are doing good today. It is great news about your work placement. I know you will do an excellent job with the pastoral ministry. They couldn't have picked a better person. I know God will be with you and guide you. Keep up the good work.
Take care of that toe!!
Have a good day.
Love you, Mama
Zack I don't know about you, but I didn't have any doubts as to whether you were going to be a part of the ministry you speak about God in a way that makes God not only accessible but loving, fun, goiving everything that He is and wants us to see in Him you show others. Any time you do a sermon at church or a song and talk about the reason for that song if it was a passage that spoke to you or whatever just the way you explain it makes it so easy to see and feel that you wonder at how it could be seen or felt any other way. I better stop I don't want your head getting big, lol j/k all I can say is you are exactly where He wants you to be and I think with a little time you'll see you're right where you want to be too as far as the ministry goes, if you havn't already. ~Kate
