Hello all.
Life is changing again but this time it’s good and exciting.
My term as Minister of the fraternity I am in is almost up.
Our election is in April. And I can’t wait for it.
It’s not like it’s a ton of work, but it’s work I am not good at.
Running the council is easy because of the people on it.
But the fraternity meetings are more difficult because I have to be the leader and be up front and speaking to people.
And as I have stated I am an introvert and really shy.
So being the person that leads the council and fraternity meetings are not in my wheelhouse. But I can say I have grown from it.
I once didn’t talk much during the meetings because of my shyness and such. Now I lead them and am thinking of ways to make all the meetings better. It has had me meet so many people I wouldn’t know and I call friends. Franciscans are some of the best people around.
Even though I am hesitant and don’t do well with crowds they are patient and help to bring me out of my shell. Even when I screw up and make mistakes they come at it from a place of love. And for that I can never thank them enough. I am a better person for it.

So in April after the election I will have one less meeting to go to a month. And I won’t have to worry about the meetings. I am now just be a member of the fraternity like normal. And I will focus on my SA class totally. It’s a good time to a Franciscan in my fraternity.
I can’t wait to see what all the new people do and the changes they make. Just know that God loves you and God is love.
