News for Drew

Here is Drew and his darling girlfriend Diana. Or "Uncle Goo" as his niece Hannah calls him. Drew has applied to Concordia University in Irvine. It is a private Christian College that has come highly recommended to him by pastors at his church. He would like to work in music ministry, or ministry of some form, he thinks. This is not his first stab at college, but he has grown and matured so much in these past couple of years, that we hope this will be the right time for him, and a good fit. We told him he would have to do all the work in order to get there. Apply, gather information to send, letters of recommendation, SAT scores, etc. He has done so, paid the fees, and is prepared to get student loans, if accepted.

Yesterday, this came in the mail for him.

And today, tomorrow and the next day, he has many calls to make, and a whole lot of running around and figuring out to do.
Congratulations Drew! We wish you much success!!

I'm so excited for Drew. Concordia is a great school with awesome professors! Several of the staff attend my church (St. John's Lutheran in Orange). I'll keep Drew in my prayers this week!
