Hey everyone!
It has been so very long since I have written here, and so very much has happened. As I am sure most of you know I spent the summer working at Qwanoes, for the most part as a counesllor. It was a wonderful summer, and I really saw God at work in the lives of the staff and campers. by the end of the summer I was completely exhausted and amazed at how I had survived. I really know that it was God's strength. The last day of youth camp I left and flew home...it was so very hard to say goodbye and not know when I was going to return.
Without even going home to Peterborough, I moved into the University of Waterloo the next morning. I was completely overwhlemed not at all feeling at place where I was ready to start the next stage of my life. However I knew that I really had no choice. But it has actually been so good, after a few days if really feeling that I had no desire to put myself out there and make new friends, I began to settle in and get used to my life here. I'm connected with a Mennonite residence (I don't sleep there, but I'm basically there all the time and next semester I will live there), and it is a sweet community, not quite like Kaleo, :) but still good. I'm actually also really enjoying my classes and I know that this is where I need to be right now, to lead me to fufill the call I feel that God has on my life.
As others have said... I loved the yearbook! Thanks so much for all of you who put sooo much work into it. It was simply wonderful!
So yeah that is my life in a nutshell, I love and miss you all. I love talking to those of you whom I have had the chance to.
Love Always,
Catherine

It can be pretty weird moving from place to place, glad you could adjust so fast and have the confidence that God wants you where you are! It will be sweet to see what will become of you.
