It's so good to be here! There are so many things I could say, but I think I'll just tell you all a bit about myself. (Some of this will be repeat from my "About Me," so sorry!)
My name, as you know, is April. I have many nicknames, none of which have really caught on with the crowd. Most people just call me April. I'm a 5'6" blond from Wisconsin. When I say I'm a blond, I mean it in both senses of the word. Thankfully, I've learned to laugh at myself. I love meeting new people and going new places. I like to say that I'm mostly a chicken, but when God puts something adventurous on my heart I get really excited. I love to sing, draw/create, cook, bake, play piano, lay on the beach, play basketball, play soccer, play Ultimate, swing dance, play card games, talk about real life, and just about anything else. I am a person with a lot of mess in me, but I'm learning what it means to live out of that mess in a way that's saturated by grace. Thanks to Jesus Christ, there's beauty in the broken. (That's a Starfield reference... "Everything is Beautiful"... look up the lyrics!)
I am really glad to be here this summer, and I hope that I get to form some meaningful relationships with both the youth and all the other people that make up the body at Orangewood. Please pray that the Lord would drive me to the cross constantly this whole summer. Woohoo! Let the games begin.
