  • Annual Spring Retreat-ICRID April 20, 2012 Life at Bethel & Work

    ICRID–the Indiana Chapter of the Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf–had their Annual Spring Retreat this past weekend. This, my Junior year, was my third time attending this wonderful retreat. While at this camp, you are not allowed to speak using your voice; you can only communicate using Sign Language…well, and all of the things [...]

  • Students for Life April 2, 2012 Life at Bethel

    This year, I have had the fantastic opportunity of being the president of the Students for Life club here at Bethel. I think one of the most impacting things that I have done with the club is go and pray at the abortion clinic. I did this again yesterday which reminded me of a previous trip to [...]

  • Consequences March 26, 2012 Life at Bethel

    The rain clears away and the clouds begin to move on. The grass looks that much greener on this side of the fence. From meeting with a prospective interpreting major to working the play Steel Magnolias, I have had an interesting day. Looking out the window, the death of many by form of Ambush water guns [...]

  • Application for Graduation March 19, 2012 Life at Bethel

    Yesterday I received an email saying that I will need to fill out an application for graduation in the near future. That is such a crazy thought! Graduation is so close that I’m filling out an application for it! Where has my time with Bethel flown? Well, as long as I’m here, something that has been going on [...]

  • Peace March 13, 2012 Life at Bethel

    Peace amidst the hectic, busy life of a college student. Yes, that’s a very difficult thing to attain. Most college students don’t even have this word in their vocabulary, but recently I have been blessed with such a wonderful peace. The kind of peace that only God can give. “And the peace of God, which [...]

  • Spring Break! February 27, 2012 Life at Bethel & Travel

    It’s that exciting time of the school year–break! This is when you can take your mind off of everything school related for just a bit and refocus yourself. I must say that I’ve had some pretty great opportunities for my Spring Breaks while I’ve been in college. I have had the opportunity to go on a [...]

  • Change February 20, 2012 Life at Bethel

    Change–some people like it, some people don’t. I haven’t quite decided. It’s weird to think that I only have one more year left at Bethel after this.  And I technically only have one more full semester on campus because I leave on practicum in the spring of 2013. It seems like just the other day [...]

  • Hmm… February 15, 2012 Life at Bethel & Work

    It’s just one of those days where everything is thrown at you. It’s not bad, it’s just busy. It’s one of those days where you’re confronted with challenges and you just have to pray for the strength to get through. That is one thing that really struck me last night in Shupe Group. We often [...]

  • My Talent is… February 6, 2012 Life at Bethel

    We are currently having a little series for chapel called the Sex & Skinny Tour. There are two wonderful speakers, Nate and Constance. You might think that this is an odd name and because of it you might shy away, but don’t. It’s not something to be afraid of. There are so many people, especially [...]

  • Oh, duh! …Yeah, I get those moments, too. January 23, 2012 Funny & Life at Bethel

     I’m pretty sure that we all have those “oh, duh!” moments in life. I have been experiencing several lately. One that I’d like to share with you has a little something to do with Passion 2012, the Bible, the Bethel 2012 calendar, and the Bethel website. If you’re on the mailing list for Bethel, you probably received [...]

  • Saturday Morning January 23, 2012 Life at Bethel

    What could be better than sleeping in on a Saturday morning? I have the answer…waking up to a delicious breakfast of chocolate chip pancakes made by some of the girls on your floor. Let’s just admit it, I had the best Saturday morning out of everyone. Well, my roommate may have had it slightly better [...]

  • Passion 2012 January 16, 2012 Travel

    Right at the end of my Christmas break, I had the opportunity to go to Atlanta, Georgia for the Passion 2012 conference with an eclectic group of about 30 poeple from Bethel, my church here, another church, Notre Dame, IWU, Indianapolis, etc. If you don’t know anything about Passion then I can sum it up [...]

  • Another Journal Entry December 8, 2011 Life at Bethel

    First off, I would like to credit the band BarlowGirl with the title of this post. It just seemed fitting. Secondly, I would like to share something with you. At the beginning of this past May, I had the opportunity to travel with a Bethel Task Force missions team to Honduras. I learned a lot [...]

  • Encouragement December 5, 2011 Life at Bethel

    How do I say this…I love the girls I live with.  My roommate, my suite-mates, the girls on my floor, the girls in my entire dorm! They have been such a blessing to me. College is one of the times in your life that you will be stretched and experience growth like none other. Through these times [...]

  • “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas” December 2, 2011 Life at Bethel

    “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!” I work in the ticket office at Bethel where we are currently selling tickets for the upcoming Christmas Choir Concert on December 2nd and 3rd. (You should come! Just call the ticket office at 574-807-7080 to get your tickets! ) There are evergreen trees in the foyer of [...]

  • Shupe Group November 15, 2011 Life at Bethel

    Tonight’s Shupe Group was one of a kind and very encouraging. My lovely roommate, the RA and Bible study leader, decided to talk bout Proverbs 31 and the woman of noble character. While focusing on this, we took Shupe Group a whole new direction by skyping with her sister who has been married for almost [...]

  • My Journal November 15, 2011 Life at Bethel

    I journal…a lot. In fact I am almost done with my eighteenth journal. This made me really excited when some of my homework for Interpreting I was to write a journal. We were to journal on our favorite quote. I love this quote so I just decided to share my journal with you. “I have to admit, it [...]

  • South Bend Chocolate Company November 3, 2011 Life at Bethel

    I’m a girl who grew up in Illinois. Not only that, I’m a Chicago girl…well from the suburbs-ish. But growing up in Illinois did not provide me with the experience of visiting the South Bend Chocolate Company. Chocolate? Yes! Yumm… My first experience with this lovely place was when my parents and I made our [...]

  • Small World October 24, 2011 Life at Bethel & Travel

    Finding a seat in chapel was a little difficult this morning but some of the girls on my floor and in my block waved me and my boyfriend over to sit next to them. I sat down next to my suite-mate and proceeded to enjoy worshiping God with the rest of the chapel as the [...]

  • Running, really? Ridiculous! October 20, 2011 Funny & Sports

    Running–it’s a pastime for many, especially here at Bethel. Our track and cross country teams are amazing! For me on the other hand, running has never been my thing. Growing up I danced for fourteen years so I was in shape from that, but then I joined the sport of doing homework. I decided to [...]
