Brightmoor on my mind...

I think of Brightmoor so often. I have learned so much, and become so "rounded" through the experiences at City Mission.

Specifically Brightmoor came to mind last week as a friend of mine, Anna, called because she was interviewing to work in the inner-city (down south) and wanted to know what types of questions she would be asked and what would be important for them to know about her. While I still have a lot to learn about the inner-city culture I felt that I had important information for her to know and it felt great to disciple Anna in that way.  Anna GOT THE JOB!! but wasn't able to take the job because living expenses and moving would have been too costly. However, I was so proud to see a privilaged middle class women of God willing to roll up her sleaves and serve Gods people.

You rock, Anna.

Anna is the young lady in front of me with the pink shirt on and gray sweater.
Such a spunky yet sweet girl!
