Disney & DeLisa : Along Way from Church


The one thing that makes me the most anxious about the Disney College Program is that I won't be able to attend church regularly or fellowship with my gang of misfits. Reading and studying the Word as well as praying are a daily priority of mine; God is a large part of my life, He's the reason for EVERYTHING! However, I'm very aware of how easy it is for me to get off track.

About four months ago, I joined an awesome church and I'm growing in God and I dont want to leave. However I know God is calling me out of my comfort zone, so I can learn how to truly lean and depend on Him. Not to mention,there will be people from all over the world from different walks of life. I'm excited to learn and admire different cultures. But with BEAUTY comes the UGLY!
As an alumni, Ive witnessed a lot of crazy things on my previous programs but that's life and I can say that Disney did all they could to help. However, I'm still somewhat nervous that I'll get distracted or caught up in having fun that I step out of the Will of God. So, I'm taking proper precautions: appointing my accountability team, attending the Running Reckless Conference for young adults and will begin fasting for this new chapter of my life.

With all the Floridians I'll meet, I'm sure that God will send me someone to help me find an awesome church home and 2015 will be the start of a great adventure. Oh, the joys of new beginnings.

Charlie Maverick World Meets the Wonderful World of Disney ... AGAIN


 
After 5 years of waiting, I'm officially moving to Florida. Next month, I will  graduate, celebrate my 24th birthday and  my last Christmas in the Lone Star State. I will kick off 2015 in the Florida where I will happily work for the Mouse. I've been waiting for this since Spring 2010 and I'm extremely happy to start my next chapter in Sunshine State. In the Summer I hope to attend the University of Central Florida to earn my Masters in Social Work.
 
 
God is really showing me what it means to truly trust Him. I'm so excited for this adventure and I'm especially ready for change. Texas, you've been great but I'm ready to try something new.
Let the Adventure Begin
