Thankful Thursday

Yesterday I spent my morning at the main campus of Crosspoint Community. I was working on printing curriculum and activities for all the classes for our campus. While there, I came away with some things than caused my heart to be thankful.

* I love the staff of our church. I am always amazed at their abilities. They all seem to have a million things on their plates and yet they all smile and take time to say hello. I realized that I do miss seeing some of these people on a more regular basis but I was grateful for the people I see at our campus now.

* Our volunteers ROCK! Taking time to print, organize and cut the items needed for this month was a little daunting at first. I realized anew how much our volunteers mean to not just our children but the church as a whole. I feel humbled to serve alongside them.

*I am thankful to call our campus home…and miss the main campus all at the same time. It is a special gift to still be able to visit the office and see familiar faces.

*I also had cause to celebrate all our teachers. They have done a phenomenal job of creating a welcoming atmosphere for children, a safe place for them. Without wonderful volunteers, our children’s ministry would not exist.

*Add to that, I am thankful for Jenni…she juggled meetings and managing a construction crew today with grace and focus (and I am not surprised at that). She inspires me daily and I respect her so much. Pete also made me grateful that I was not the only one a little impatient with the printer…although I don’t think I printed my item more than twice! Oh – Pete, you inspire me too!

Thanks main campus for letting me come in yesterday and share some of your time. It felt good to visit back home for a little bit.
