Being welcomed back with complete open arms is something everyone needs to
experience.
It had been many, many months since I had last attended Seven. I was a team leader, a member of the core before resigning so I could move to Orange County to finish school. Not a single person forgot me or failed to welcome me back, literally welcomed with open arms. What an amazing feeling. The band played their songs, and the second one (a new one to me) really got to me, and tears started to well up in my eyes. It sounded so beautiful and what an amazing ministry Seven is. I so wish I could still be a part of it, but God has other things for me right now. And before Jeremy went up to teach, they used one of my audio clips (the Tequila/Sietie one) and people laughed at it. Jeremy even made a funny comment about it when he came up. It's nice to know I am still causing havoc. The lesson fit just right with what I was experiencing in life at this time.

Afterwards Aubrey Richmond, Jenna, Andy Moore and some others hung out at In-N-Out Burger. Andy and I talked for quite a while, as we really just click, but sadly don't have opportunities to spend much time together. I gave him mad props for such an amazing job on backup guitar that night. He is such a talented, and very humble, guitarist. When Andy left, I joined in on the Scatagories game that was already in progress. Normally I am good thinking on my toes, but I couldn't think of any creative words for the game that night! We all had a great time and I was filled with so much joy as I drove back home to Orange County.
