Baby News and End of Semester Schedule--Wesley E-letter

Hey everyone!  Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.  You have been in my heart and prayers.  I finally finished a couple of weeks ago the prayer ring that has each of the different kind of beaded lanyards on it that we handed out (and I hope you kept) at the beginning of the semester.  I have it at home with me, so even though I’m not there in person, I am there in heart.  I think of all of you often and I have been praying for you as the end of the semester nears. 

 

Just a word about Jeremiah’s arrival.  I go to the hospital tomorrow morning at the crack of dawn.  My c-section is scheduled for 7:30am.  For those of you who have seen me in the mornings you can pray for me.  I’m a night owl for a reason.  J  I was hoping he would be here by now so I could participate in our end of semester activities, but that hasn’t panned out.  BUT I am determined to be there for at least some of our Christmas party a week from this Thursday.  Tim and I have already talked about how we can make that happen.  Don’t know how long I will be able to stay, but I really want to see you all before you leave for the break.  And I will have Christmas presents with me for y’all.  Please be there so I can hug your neck!  J

 

Speaking of which, here is a look at the next two weeks (Tyler will send more details on facebook):

 

Tuesday, Dec. 1st, 6:30pm—Advent service.  We will have this in our chapel, and it is going to be student led!  Awesome!  This is my favorite worship service of the year.  We do all the advent candles in one night.  It is so cool; you don’t want to miss it.

 

Thursday, Dec. 3rd, 6:30pm—Hot Chocolate & Christmas Clips.  Will have dinner and drink hot chocolate and maybe decorate and watch Christmas movies.  Woo Hoo!

 

Tuesday, Dec. 8th, 6:30pm—Christmas Communion Service.  This is going to be great.  Louis from Broadway will be there to lead us in a time of reflection on the special-ness of the season, complete with a candlelight communion.  How cool is that.  Come and finish the semester with a special time of worship.

 

Thursday, Dec. 10th, 6:30pm—Food & Christmas Party.  This is the one I’m going to try to get to!!!!!!!  Yay!  We will eat as usual and then have our gift exchange, etc.  Hound Tyler on facebook about what to bring for exchange.

 

Finals Lunches—On the Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday of finals week we will have free lunch provided.  Come and relax and be blessed!!!

 

Now a final word…..

 

I can’t tell you how much you all mean to me.  You remain so close to my heart, and I am so thankful for the opportunity to be a part of your lives.  Know that I miss and love you, and am praying for you during this crazy time.

 

Blessings,

 

Sami
