A long awaited update...

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Let me update you on life...

Well I am still greatly enjoying life in Salt Lake City. Christmas vacation was wonderful. It was so much fun to be back in California and see friends and family. I miss everyone tremendously. I loved spending some time in Azusa, going to a Ducks game, and spending a ridiculous 4 hours at Islands. Definitely good times. Leaving was tough. I thought I would be super emotional, but I realized I mostly just wanted to spend more time with my sister and Ron rather than stay in California. So coming back to SLC felt like home, and I'm so glad for that.

It has been so nice settling back into routine here. K2 continues to be a blessing in so many ways. I feel a renewal of spirit as I prepare to step back into my role there. (We resume tomorrow.) I can't wait to witness God's work in the youth ministry at K2. K2 has been unique for me because God is teaching me to worship in new and creative ways that I wouldn't have imagined before. Now I want to help my students know God, not just know about him. Prayer would be much appreciated.

The snow is so much fun! I really like living in winter. Yesterday was in the low forties and I felt like throwing a tank top on. It was so nice out! Next weekend a few of us are going snow shoeing, and the weekend after I am probably going to learn how to snowboard. The snow brings some awesome and fun opportunities!!

Well I am greatly encouraging anyone and everyone to come take advantage of free lodging if you come experience the greatest snow on earth (according to my license plate). So everyone... grab a couple people, hop in your car, and come to Salt Lake. Hurry hurry!

As I wrap this up some prayer requests are: Roommates and the continuous struggle of us all living on our own; clarity and guidance as I seek out what this next year will look like now that I am nearing the halfway mark of my internship; continued motivation to serve God and God alone through my internship.

Thanks everyone for your continued reading. We get internet at our house this week so then I should be updating more frequently!

Peace,
Cat



(And what would an update be without a few pictures?)

My car covered in the first big snow. I was house sitting at Tricia's (where I used to live) and got my car stuck in her driveway because shoveling had not yet occurred to me.

These next two were taken when five of us went on a little trip to Temple Square to look at the Christmas lights. Temple Square really is beautiful with the lights!
