Title: My eventful/fun week
Tags:
Blog Entry:             May 12, 2008. Monday   I’m excited. Last week on Wednesday night it was planned for worship practice at Mosaic Church, but it got changed to Thursday night, so I went to a women’s worship on Wednesday night. I asked the one I trained at E4sq to do slides for me that night, her/I are training another person so it gave her a chance to practice a service with assistance. On Thursday night I went to church at 4pm, I did schoolwork to kill two hours before practice, I finished the required part needed that’s due tomorrow. It’s been three months since I did slides for Mosaic, training and practice included, but I remembered 99 percent of what to do. I set up Sunday’s service slides while the band practiced, it went good. On Saturday, as usual, I did slides for Trinity Project, it’s fun as always. The worship was good this week, and the children got to be part of it-a story was told with powerpoint slides-due to being Mother’s Day yesterday; the church only has a service on Saturday nights. I went to OMSI and volunteered before going to church. Yesterday, Sunday/Mother’s Day, I did all three services. I soloed, it was very fun, minor delays but I still did good, the church uses MediaShout. I use EasyWorship-EWS-at E4sq/Trinity Project. It’s similar to EWS but set up different, and you can’t add PowerPoint’s to it like you can on EWS. At the end of January this year I got trained for 3 days for a total of 3 hours, then I sat through a service on a Sunday in February to get the feel of doing a service and I did the second and third service with minor assistance. Yesterday, I did all 3 services all by myself, I’m glad I could do it. I’m glad I can serve and help at church, it helps me gain more skills and I grow stronger in HIM by participating in things that I can do with my abilities, despite my disability I can still achieve beyond what many people think I can do. Today, I volunteered at mosaic’s office doing data entry for the children’s attendance, I normally do 1-1/2 service and leave but I did all 3 services. I found a quicker/easier way to find the kids/mark them as attended, it works, it takes me less than an hour per service compared to 1-1/2 hours; good progress I say. Plus I took care of a contact entry that I got last month, I say that’s good, I’m caught up/ahead in what’s needed,. It saves them time to get other important things done, and it frees up the desk I use that belongs to one of the staff there. I end up taking the desk spot to do the entering, he doesn’t mind but I don’t always like to take up someone else’s office space; he knows it’s for a very good reason though. I put in a good solid 3 hours, very cool. I’ve had a very busy 1-1/2 months since this spring term in college started, I’ve had more schoolwork to do and less computer play, but I think I’m caught up enough to play games on my computer off/on now to relax my brain some; along with hanging out with friends during the day as another way to relax/have fun. I have one more month until I’m done with spring term, I take summer term off so I can have more volunteering/fun time days, plus it’s a way to be fresh for fall term at the end of September I better go, time to do schoolwork/study for my reading quiz tomorrow, later gator.
