Part of my emphasis in ministry this year was with upperclassmen and graduating seniors. To do that I hosted graduating seniors several times this last semester in order to talk, train, pray, study scripture with them about life after college. Some of the topics that we focused on; finding community after college and financial basics. In the picture above, we are working on budgeting and applying Christian principles to how we use our money. Many were very thankful for the practical advice and said things like, "Thank you so much for that, I had never been taught how to budget, this was what I needed." An SSU alumni from '04, Geoff Andrews, helped lead part of the financial training, thanks Geoff!
I also went to lunch with the senior men. We started a tradition of dressing up, getting lunch and just looking dapper!

Johnston Family Summer Update
There is a lot going on for our family this summer...
- We are growing by one! We recently found out that we are with child and due Nov. 25, here is a pic of the first sonogram. (sorry that its sideways)
- Israel: For a seminary class, I will be going with a class group for 2 weeks to Israel (June 17th-30th). I'm very excited!
- Seminary: After this summer I will be about 50% of the way done with my M.Div degree...there is light at the end of the tunnel. I estimate to be competed in late 2014.
