I arrived back in Tallahassee at the end of July after about 12 1/2 hours on the road. The drive wasn't bad and traffic moved pretty smoothly (nothing like coming back after Christmas last year and traffic was at a stand-still on I-26, resulting in a 15 hour trip). I spent two weeks getting unpacked, situated, cleaning, etc. I wanted to make sure I had enough time to settle in before beginning work. On August 8, all of us on staff with Chi Alpha met at the office to begin our first official day of the fall semester. We had spent the summer working to connect and share Chi Alpha with people over the summer, but we were finally back in town and ready to get to work. Since then, we have been busy planning events for when the international students arrive, the freshmen move in and have orientation, and when the continuing students return to Tallahassee. We have a lot of events lined up and are in the process of tweaking and fine-tuning them.
I'm excited for the students to return and for the fall semester to begin. Please be in prayer for us, that we may reach the students at FSU, FAMU, and TCC for Christ.
