I joined Wave Photography Team!!!! Woo WHO!


Boy-oh-boy is God moving in my life!  For a while now, I've been contemplating on ways I could contribute to one of the many volunteer teams at my church.   I once tried serving in the nursery...let's just say, it wasn't what I'm 'called' to do!  Hahahaha.  Babies are sweet, innocent and cute but somehow I volunteered for the evening service and wound up with a room full of sleepy babies that just wanted their crib.  Afterwards I had to muster up even more energy to lug my own sleepy munchkins home and get them to bed.  Though it did feel good to contribute where service was needed - it just wasn't in my heart.  I kept praying for God to unveil where he needed me in His house.

Then about two weeks ago I received a phone call from a woman named 'Promise' (gorgeous name, I know)!  She explained that she was the head of the new 'Wave Photography Team' and my name had been mentioned during their meeting.  She explained that the team consisted of both aspiring and professional photographers that volunteer their time to photograph different church events and went on to ask if I'd be interested in joining!  YOU BETCHYA'!  I was pumped!  Yes, our church is quite large and has video camera's everywhere, but I had no idea a photography team even existed!  What an opportunity to serve, doing something I love and can give my entire heart doing!!!!!  Thank you God!!!  Once again you have answered my prayer and have delivered bigger than I ever imagined.  (How awesome is our God?!?!?!)

I had my first 'job' on the team yesterday - photographing water baptism's after the 6pm service.  It was such an honor to witness something so powerful and 'freeze' that moment for so many people.  It's like they are embraced by God and I had the opportunity to capture it with my camera!  *sigh*  Here's a little peak...
