Dear everyone,

It has been a wild ride today for me! Having to be in the process of applying for my green card with my family really has been exciting, especially going to my family doctor this morning for the lab results. After a few turns and twists, I've turn out to be as healthy as I can be, and I've successfully received the required document (I-693) to advance in my green card process.

It really has been thrilling up to this point of the process, and it is just really hard not to shout praises to the Lord when I'm bursting with joy. Thank Him so much for His overlooking to this whole time! Praise the Lord! And may my parents have just as an easy time as I did today when they undergo the process of getting their I-693s next Wednesday.

I spent quite some time on worshipmatters.com yesterday, and took detailed notes on the series, What Does a Worship Leader Do? It has been so fulfilling to read each post closely that I feel like I finally know so much more about just what exactly should a worship leader do. The best part of spending that time yesterday was that I've written all the important parts down so I can go back to it whenever I like without having to serf through the series. The series have 14 posts to it. 9 posts down, 5 more to go.

It is 6 days until being back in Bloomington. I'm both psyched and sad. Psyched because I can't wait for the school year to start and move into a whole new apartment with Vivian. Sad because I know I'll miss my parents very much.

Please continue to pray for the victims and their family members. The number of undiscovered is still very high...

Love,
Anna
