My Name is Seth Thompson

Hello there, my name is Seth Thompson and welcome to my blog. I am going to do this blog to help keep those who I love updated on what is going on in my life as I serve in Jamaica this next month. Missions has been a big part of my life, and it is a passion i feel called to pursue. I have been so blessed to visit and work with the people of Jamaica, and look forward to seeing what God has in store for the island of Jamaica and this boy from the south. Please feel free to join me on this journey through this blog as I walk this road God has called me too. Thanks for all your prayer and support.

Nashville, Here I Come!!!

I am sitting here in the Kansas City airport waiting for my flight to Nashville.  I was not able to type a whole lot this weekend, as it was a busy, but very fun weekend.  I would like to really thank Ben and Kimbre Birdwell for allowing me to stay in their house this weekend while I was in KC.  It was great to catch up with them and spend some time with old friends.  The grace of God truly showed through them, and their hospitality was amazing.  I am glad that they allowed me the opportunity to stay with them.  Thanks once again.

The conference I was attending this last week was so that I could become a Mission Corps Volunteer with the Church of the Nazarene.  This allows me to be seen by the church as a mission entity, although a volunteer one.  I will be able to raise funds through the church, which will cover food, shelter, insurance, transportation, and things like that.  There were about 25 or so of us there going through the course, and it was really cool to hear their stories of what God is doing in their life's.  I met so many wonderful people and pray and hope that God continues to bless them as they pursue God with all of their being.

Beyond the people, the conference was great as well.  It was very informative, and even created opportunity for brain stimulation through exercises and practices.  I was able to get some questions answered this weekend, and am so glad that I got to attend the conference. I hope to soon be working with the West and East District on a contract for service.  We will see how that goes.

Get ready Nashville, here I come.  Thanks and God Bless!!!!
