Why?
Well....it all started around 8 months ago. I live at the King's Castle Campground along with the UCCM.
What is that?
Ultima Cosecha Comision del Maestro
What is that?
Last Harvest Master's Commission
Most days here people wear jeans and a t-shirt. Well.....since I was in Master's Commission for 4 years I have accumulated several MMC shirts. I wear them often. Don't judge me. I think they are cool.....and so does almost every single UCCM student here. No lie, every single time I wear one at least 2 or 3 people say, "Awww....those shirts are so cool. I wish I had one."
Well guess what?
Santa came to town.
I told Pastor Don (director of Memphis Master's Commission) about how much my students loved the shirts and he decided to bless a few of them with a free shirt. (for this I was thankful...that they were free and all!) So I packed my suitcases with the necessary items that I needed then it was in with the shirts. Unfortunately I couldn't take a lot of them but I brought around 12. Now it was to prayerfully consider who to give them to. After much thinking and conversing with the Lord, we decided to bless the 3rd year girls.
Let's talk about the 3rd years.
After 2 grueling years of Master's if one decides to complete their 3rd year this means they are taking the missions challenge. They will itinerate throughout the country of El Salvador to raise funds to go to a country that was chosen for them. There they will serve around 6 to 8 months. They will the return and graduate.
I love the 3rd years and felt like they deserved a treat....and plus they talked the most about the shirts.
So when I opened my suitcase with them all standing there they screamed like little 5 year olds opening Barbies and G-I-Joes. I loved seeing the smiles. They were so surprised. They told me to put on a matching one and they wanted to take a picture together to tell Pastor Don thanks and they love the shirts.
I have only been back less than 2 weeks and most of them have worn their shirts 2 or 3 times. I love seeing them strutting around the camp with my Master's shirts on. It makes me proud. So Pastor Don, thank you for blessing us. We love and appreciate you and Memphis Master's Commission.
