Summer internship at my church.

It May Be Summertime, But I'm Ready To Jump Into My Church Internship
Hanah DeHart

I have been out of school for.. well when you are reading this about 11 days now and I love it. Don't get me wrong I enjoy being at school but I also love being home and having home cooked meals and I was super excited to get home to start my summer internship and make some MONEY!

This summer, I have the amazing opportunity to be an intern at my church in my home town and so far, it is going well! I definitely had some nerves coming into it because I was like what if everything I do is wrong or not good enough but God would not have given me the opportunity with this internship if he didn't think I could do it. I also have some of my friends here interning also which is always so nice and great and makes it easier if I am ever stressed about something.

I am so excited to be here helping and doing the Lord's work in the process because in the end that is what I am doing and that is what he had a vision for me at the end of the day, serving him.

A little bit of background of what I am doing. I am in the communications department here at my church. This entails existing to unify the voice of our church. Anything that someone interacts with other than the message from Sunday mornings, which is five things, those are...

1. The experience

2. What they see

3. Whatever they click wither that be on our facebook page or on our website

4. What they read and

5. What they touch.

Interacting with the church has a lot to do with what we are doing behind the scenes and sometimes when there are props made on stage that goes with the creative and communications side with the church to help our pastors out if they need a visual to go with the message.

I do have big projects already but I love a good challenge and seeing my more creative side come out and a lot of trial and error to get the point across. I am very thankful for this opportunity that I have been given. I know that he is the only one who is going to know the outcome of the summer but I know I am here for a reason and growing in my faith is something that is definitely going to happen this summer, especially having a class with one of our pastors studying a book in the bible I can't wait for that.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
