Day 216



August 4, 2011

the one where I went to San Antonio with Judy & Rachel to visit Our Lady of the Lake University! They have a Speech Pathology program there, so it’s one of my graduate school options, and I was excited to check it out! The campus was small and beautiful, with a gorgeous cathedral right beside the main building—and the craziest thing happened when I got there! Got a little story for you, Ags!

So pretty much as soon as we got to OLLU’s Sacred Heart Chapel, my Aunt Judy was surprised to see a lady she went to high school with, named Sister Anita. I couldn’t believe it—what a small world! But then it got more interesting. Sister Anita asked where I was from, and when I said “Cyclone,” she responded “me too!” (And for those of you who know how teeny-tiny Cyclone is, your jaw probably just hit the ground like mine did!) It also turns out that I graduated from high school with her nephew, which is just crazy! After all that, we got a tour of the chapel and I met with an advisor who answered all my questions about graduate school.

To make the day even better, the family we stayed with in Helotes leads Praise & Worship at an Adoration chapel once a month, and we just happened to show up on the right day! And after some good prayer and fellowship, we ended the night with chocolate cake, Rocky Road ice cream, and Messina Hof wine. Today seriously couldn’t have been better! Thank you Jesus—you never cease to amaze me!
