My last post for Mustard Seed.

In thinking about how my time here at Mustard Seed is coming to a close I am really sad. I have come to love spending my days here in the Resource Room, getting to know Wendy and Jodi and all of the regular students. I have enjoyed the relaxed, spontaneous community; and have grown to love lunch time in the faculty lounge where stories of the present and past are shared, along with advice and humor paired with mutual admiration and love. What a privilege and a blessing it has been for me to be a part of this place for such a short period of time. 

Walking away I have a lot to think about and process through. I have a lot of Orton Gillingham material to read (graciously provided for me by Jodi). I will be thinking about (and missing) the Mustard Seed style of worship. I will be more conscious about how to be purposeful in all my actions because at Mustard Seed I see purpose in everything and have been impressed by how that affects people. I will be thinking about what it means to work in an environment of diverse Christian backgrounds and will be missing lunch talks about the beauty and the mystery of our God. I will miss the bright atmosphere, the walls covered in art, the beautiful song dancing through the halls during a music lesson. I will miss discussing books with students. 

Do I want to teach? I am still not sure. However, I am sure that whatever I do I would be lucky to work in such a precious, loving place as Mustard Seed.
