I thought I would write a quick blog to let everyone know that I am loving my new job at Pressley Ridge. I have been intimidated by the kids but at the same time I have already grown to truly care for these kids. They have been through so many things that I can't even imagine and I hope that my time spent here can help change them for the better. This week and most of next week are filled with training so I don't get to interact with the kids as much as I would like, but I will soon be on a steady shift were I can have a routine with the kids. Pray that I will have the strength to talk to these kids about my faith. Most of these kids are so far from God that they don't even know what it would be like to know Him. I hope I get the chance to show them. I'm heading into work tomorrow morning for some more training but I'll be back tomorrow night. Then I have a 3 1/2 day schedual next week where some of the day is in more training and the other part is with the kids. I'll be back Thursday evening so keep Cassandra and Steve in your prayers also.

Sounds like a job perfect for you. We'll be praying for your effectiveness with these kids. You've got a great heart, Zach, and we're so glad you are using your compassion and wisdom in God's kingdom.
I'm SO proud of my "little brother"! Love you guys so much!
I'm so glad you're enjoying your first "real" job! You are so good for those kids, and I have no doubt that they will see God's love shining through you - it is so evident to anyone who comes into contact with you! You will be such a wonderful role model and a blessing for them, and your co-workers.
I sure miss seeing you every day on campus and sharing coffee! Love you guys.
Oh Zach...You've come so far. And you have so much to offer. I know those kids will be blessed by you being there. I know that you will be blessed in your effort too. I will be praying for you and your work. I'm sure it is intimidating, but you've got the heart to do the job. I love to see your heart for God in everything you do. I'm so proud of you. I will be thinking and praying for Cassandra and Steve too. Have we told you how much we love your wife! She's a jewel. Always treat her as precious.
Proud of you, son!
love ya
dad
Zach, I think this job is perfect for you, especially as a "first gig". You've got so much to offer these kids and a great opportunity to identify with, and help a lot of young people grow into excellent adults. It's gotta be a weird change to be away from Cass and home so regularly, but I think this is only the beginning of the great career path you're headed down!
What an amazing job--perfect for you! I know how hard it is being away from your spouse for a long period of time, though, and will be praying for you both!
hey! just found your guys blog from your comment on Adam Ellis'. Hope you guys are well (looks like it with the job).
Hope to see you guys soon!!!
