Thank you god for putting me here

Thank you God for letting me be a part of your story.  Thank you for letting me be a part of what you are doing here.  Thank you for this church and all the people here.  As I look around at all the leaders and all the amazing people you have here, God my heart is moved to tears of joy.  Thank you for putting me here Jesus.  A teenager from California living in Northern Ireland I am.  What an adventure!!!  What a blessing!  What a time of learning and change!  Thank you for what you have included me to do here in Northern ireland and abroad.  Greater things are yet to come. Greater things are still to be done here.  I am so happy to be home, to be back at church.  Thank you for what you are going to do this year.  The best is yet to come.
