After much prayer, contemplation, and a push from God I have decided to stay at Black Forest Academy this upcoming year, 2013-2014. After some long talks with God it is evident that He wants me here at BFA. However, this upcoming year I will no longer be here as a MS Math teacher, but rather as a Resident Assistant in one of the nine dorms here at BFA. With this link you can see the various dorms here: http://bfacademy.com/boarding/the-dorms/
It is as I told close friends of mine from back in the United States:
"God has truly brought me to this position...and I could not be more at peace about it.
I would appreciate your love and support in this decision. It was not an easy one to make due to missing so many people from back home, but please know that I KNOW this is what the Lord has for me right now. Join with me as I lean on this passage for continual wisdom from Him: James 1:2-8. He has great plans for me, and the journey is nothing ever short of crazy. "
See the following below for the specific duties of what my role will entail this upcoming year:
Purpose: To help BFA fulfill its mission/vision by overseeing the boarding students, the facilities and the dorm staff in a particular BFA residence.
Reporting Relationships: Dorm Parents and Res. Life Supervisor
Responsibilities:

Thank you, again, for ALL of your support and prayer as I continue on the path that God has pre-planned for me...I cannot wait to see what more He has in store for me! :-)
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does."
~James 1: 2-8~
The AMAZING Middle School staff that I will miss, OH, so dearly. |
