Elise is finally married! On Thursday night I went to Elise and Dustin Call's reception. Elise got engaged just before spending 4 months in Jerusalem with me. I am so happy for her and I had a great time getting together with so many of my Jerusalem friends. Below (Monica, Katie, Elise, and Heather)



Women in Business Dinner: This past Thursday we had a big dinner that was sponsored by the Undergraduate Advisory Board. I conducted the meeting and wore my purple suit! I love being in the business program and it has been really fun to get involved this year.

We had about 120 female students come for a nice dinner and then we had a member of the advisory board speak to us. Her name in Michelle Linford. She spoke on the important role we have as women. We are needed and we can do great things. As she shared her story she made the point that no matter how hard we try to plan out our lives, things are not going to go exactly like we want them to. We need to rely on the Lord and trust that the He can plan our lives better than we can. What a great reminder!

It was so fun to see so many women gathered together in the Marriott school and be reminded that we are not alone in the program. We had about 20 people sign up for the club and I talked to a lot of students that want to get involved. I am so excited for this club and as I talked to people following the event I started to see how much this club is needed and the great impact it can have on individuals.
