Just got a note from a graduating DTS student. These moments make even the most tedious parts of my job inspirational to me!Dear Creagon,
I meant to tell you this in person, but with the hectic schedules that we faced during our last two weeks in school, plus with my never-ending habit of procrastinating, I failed to do so.
But during outreach, Stephanie asked me of how I came to be at YWAM Orlando. And I told her that it was mainly because of the phone call that I had when I first called the Orlando base. You picked up and talked with me for a good hour on just explaining what the program was all about and sharing your own experiences. And I hadn't even wanted to go to Orlando. I want to go to Oregon or Alaska, or somewhere that I had never been before. But after I spoke with you, I thought, "Wow. If everyone is like the guy that I just spoke with, then I definitely want to go to this base."
So, Creagon, your personality is outstanding and you have an incredible way of catching people's attention, which just makes absolute sense as to why you're so passionate in reaching out and gaining more students. You were so patient with me, so open, and so genuine. I just wanted to say thank you for just being who you've been called to be. You're outstanding, and many people have taken notice. I pray that you're doing so very well and I cannot wait to see you in the near future (I'm thinking about EQ, so watch out!)
Your friend,
Jordan Katcher
60 days ago I flew to the Dominican Republic as a preparation trip for this spring break. Today I fly to Michigan to meet with the students and their parents. For some of these young missionaries, Saturday will be their first international flight.
