i'm back!

i have returned to st. louis and am settled back into the vs house here and began my job at la clinica last thursday. i am so excited about my upcoming year and already love the clinic. because of some last minute staffing changes my job may deviate a bit from what i intially expected but i am so happy to be working at the clinic and with the people there. i am sure that everything will work out for the best. it was so fun to go to church on sunday and reconnect with people i said goodbye to and didn't know when i would see them next! while i was away we got a new pastor and i am eager to get to know he and his wife. they have already invited the vs house over for dinner this saturday and i am looking forward to talking with and learning more about them. really i am just thankful to be back in st. louis and feel a real sense of peace and joy with my decision to return. the picture is of heather, one of my roommates, on my computer in my room
