Meet the New RAs

This year we added to the many hats we wear here at the Seminary that of Dean of Single Students. In this capacity (which we are filling while a colleague is in the US on furlough) we are in charge of the dormitories, and work closely with the resident assistants.

We are very excited at the prospect of working with these two outstanding young people next semester: Suzane and Fagner. They have both shown themselves to be true servants and examples to their fellow students. Last night Itá and I took them out to dinner. They were full of ideas, energy, and enthusiasm for next semester.

We thank God for bringing them to the dorm at just the right time to fill this position. Pray for them, the job ahead of them can be daunting. We are convinced, however, that they are equal to the task.

Talk back to the missionary: As we chatted with them, memories of my own time as RA came rushing back to me. Did any of you ever serve as RAs of a college dorm? What were your most interesting experiences?
