so i totally love this whole college life schedel... its been so amazing i like my classes and i've meet some really interesting people... i'm supprized at how many people there i know and see... the only down side is the parking and i think i've figured it out- the first day i drove around for 34 min! but its all good...

God has been so incredible to me... i told my mom back in july that if God does nothing else for me i have reason enough to praise Him forever when i think of where i could have been monday i'm amazed!! the little prayer requests and big ones that were answered that day...

i would have NEVER thought senior year i'd be anywhere but in jim nash's sunday school class at rsbc and at my school... but look i'm in an incredible youth group and amazing God filled church, fbcw, and at a public school and ksu... never say never... cause i love it!! God must have something big ahead of me to think of all He did to get me here...

last friday me amanda cesily crimson and mary had a girls night! we ate dinner at Rays On The River and had a fabulous time!! we went back to ces's and had so much fun with her sister's wigs and talking and sharing what the Lord has been doing!

...mary, crimson, cesily, amanda and me at dinner

before school monday crim and shelly texted me just to say the love me and after class liz called me wanting to know how it went... God has been so good to me to bless me with precious girls 

love to all... ellen

...prepared a elementry school in queens for painting
...were on the early show
...ministered in a soup kitchen in brooklyn and God allowed me to use my last year    to relate to someone who needed to be set free from his past and it put things into perspective for me- if i had to do that for that one person it was worth it
...went to phantom of the opera on broadway
...visited 2 fire houses
...performed and ministered in central park
...visited the world trade center
...freely worshiped in an adict center in a "rough" neighborhood
