I went to the Swiss Festival tonight. I got to go with two of my favorite people and we ate food that should only EVER be eaten once a year. This was only my second time to go. Last year, I went with my sister and saw only one other person I knew. This year was quite different.
I saw co-workers. I get to work with people that I really enjoy talking to out of the office.
I saw volunteers from Velocity. People that give up their time every week to impact kids lives.
I saw kids from Velocity. Kids so in love with Jesus that they entered the Talent Contest with a song from KidsStuf called "Hey God". (Brought home 2nd place too!)
This time last year, I knew a handful of people in Tuscarawas County. I walked through the crowd feeling a bit overwhelmed. Tonight I felt like a socialite. I knew people's faces and names and they know me. At NewPointe, we want people to be a part of a community. I'm so thankful that I get to be a part of that.
