I just wanted to give you an update on Seminary. It is
going great so far. It was tough adjusting back to the academic work, but
now that I have made it through my first week, things are going smoothly.
I am taking Hebrew, which is going to be my toughest course, but I am beginning
to see the reward in all the studying. I am also taking Old Testament,
Early Church History, Systematic Theology, Speech, and Choir. This
afternoon, I found out that I have secured a job in the Seminary Relations
office working about 10 hours a week, which is great because they are very
flexable with hours, and I have my weekend to catch up on my work, and of
course to explore different churches on Sundays.
I have met some wonderful people here so far from all over
the country. I have never experienced that type of diversity before being
from and going to college in Southwest Virgina.
I certainly miss Raleigh Court and I hope the year has
started off well. I really missed being at Rally Day this year. If
you get the chance, tell everyone at Youth Group that I miss them and I am
thinking about them.
I cannot tell you enough how much I appreciated this last
year at Raleigh Court. It truly was a blessing. I cannot thank you
enough for giving me this opportunity. My thinking is so much different
at Seminary than it would have been 1 year ago without that experience.
Yours in Christ,
Richard
