Hey guys, this is Josh.
I moved down to Raleigh a month ago to be a fellow, and it’s been awesome! I’ve met a million awesome people and 13 really awesome fellows. I met a bunch of really cool and also crazy 7th and 8th graders that I get to lead in the youth ministry. I met my host family, Bill and Joanna Refvem, and they are amazing! I really appreciate their humble hospitality.
One of my favorite things we did this month was Fall Camp. We went to New Life camp for a weekend with the youth ministry. It was super fun, and I got to spend quality time with the kids. I got to go fishing with the boys down at the pond, which is one of my favorite things. We had really good conversations during small groups, and I got to know the guys a lot better. I 10/10 recommend Fall camp!
I am working for Redeeming Development Group (RDG) with a bunch of men who go to Apostles including our very own Fellows First Lady, Sam Crutchfield. After a stressful summer working for the corporate machine back in Virginia, it has been a breath of fresh air to work with such awesome people who love each other well and look to serve the community. RDG has some really cool stuff in the works and I’m excited to get to help out!
Until next time,
Josh Gressett
