Live-it

I am so excited for what is about to come. I want to start and finish it now... even though I KNOW I'll be bored once I've finished... But live-it has really given me a chance to put what I love and who I love together for the first time and really make it count!!!

Live-it is an organization here in Knoxville, TN that helps the needy. But it's not something you do to put on a college application to make you "well rounded"; not something you add to your resume to make it "look good"; not something I'm doing to make someone else happy. God has put us here in TN for a reason. For THIS reason. I get to help an organization bred out of love for our lord be something big; bold; and mighty, just like him.

I originally found live-it through the internet. I thought it would be a good way to meet people, other christians, in our area since we know practically no one here. But 2 meetings in and God is pulling at my heart strings telling me this is what I was brought here to do!!!

Right now I have a few projects going with them: One is called the "VolCall" group. Once we know the projects we will be doing we get on the phone and make calls to our volunteers to let them know of the opportunities coming up. The Second is to help them with their advertising to share with local businesses to get them to sponsor projects! Thirdly, I will be attending different projects to get photos of the volunteers for the site, future advertising, etc!

I know I posted briefly the other day about this. However, we spent 2 hours tonight going through everything and I had more (AMAZING) info to share.

Other than Live-it, I have nothing... LOL. No news on the job front as of yet... and while this is a bit hard for us, and stressfull [and boring] for me I am planning on focusing on this for now. I believe God is going to Keep us safe, and secure, and once it's the right time I will find exactly what WE need!

Finally in the swing of things!

SO, its been a few weeks since I've posted... and I wish I could say it's because I've been unbelievably busy, but it's not... I have been busy trying to find a job, and honestly besides boring day to day stuff there hasnt been much going on to blog about. But tonight I have a few things to let everyone know about!

First, I have found a job with Bankers life... I will be selling medicare supplements and life insurance/annuities. Im pretty excited about this chance to work with the retired community again, its been a few years.

Also I have recently connected with a volunteer group here in Sevier county called Live-it. Beginning out I will be making phone calls to other volunteers to get them to come out to help. We do just about everything from building drive ways, to cleaning out houses, providing cooking and cleaning for members just getting out of surgery that has noone to help. I'm extremely excited about this opportunity to get to know people in our community and to help others in need!!!
