First Impressions

This week was my first week serving at Crossroads as a part of their First Impressions team and I absolutely loved it!  I’ve been wanting to get more involved with my church for a while now but always found an excuse not to.  This year is a year of sacrifice and reprioritization (I checked and yes that is a word.)  I went to an orientation a week ago and everyone was so nice.  Today was no different.  I showed up to a room full of smiling faces, coffee, tea, and donuts.  The volunteer team leader showed me around and I learned about each station I could possibly work at on any given weekend.  I was assigned to hold open the door to the auditorium, the door that my family goes into, so I was happy to see them, and be the one to greet them in the morning.  Once I took up the offering I was basically done for the day, but I stuck around since Jenna and I go to the following service together.  It gives me time to journal and then when my family comes out of the early service I can sit and talk to them until the next service starts.  It’s easy and its fun and it absolutely makes me look forward to Sundays!  I’m hoping it will eventually get me involved a little more behind the scenes and at some point I can become a little more involved.
