Amadeo is truly my home.

In the past few weeks, I have had a very different feeling going into VCC. I know that feelings aren't anything to go by persay, but I have had them none the less. On the 14th, I taught the 4s and 5s, and it was different. I love all the kids there, but it was the walking to the room that was different. I felt distant and that it was not my home anymore. I almost felt that I didn't belong. Trust me in that it was no one's fault, it's just the honest feeling that I felt. That day, I ended out helping in the 11:00 service after I taught during the 9:00 service, and when I left, it continued. On Wednesdays, there has only been a hint of the feelings. Honestly, I think it's because I'm still supposed to teach the Prims, even if I am not a normal attendee of VCC. It may all have to do with the fact that I haven't attended a service there since November. Yet, I never thought I would feel this way about VCC. It's still weird.

Yesterday, I had a meeting with Keith who now oversees missions. The meeting went well. Overall, the trips to Mexico will no longer be "promoted" by the church due to different legalities. This means that we can only use the church van for specific trips where we have a lot of donations and that it will no longer be in the bulletin or church e-mails. Overall, I have found that most people like for it to be a smaller group, so I think this might actually be a blessing. Also, this will help it be more of an Amadeo minitry for the future.

Yet, after having this conversation with him, I feel like this is even more confirmation that I am supposed to be at Amadeo and a part of Amadeo. Yesterday when I got there, I felt like there were so many new people. It was exciting, but yet I felt like I have already missed so much just from missing 2 Sundays in a row.

I'm excited for this change. There are obviously people that I will forever be in touch with at VCC, but I am so excited to see all that God is going to do in Amadeo.
