This is Madison aka “Sunshine"

 

 Madison shines the brightest light. I have never once seen her when she isn’t smiling, kindly and attentively listening, or beaming in happiness. 

A little about Mads:She was raised in a small east Texas town and carries one of those strong, southern accents but speaks with such light-hearted manner. She cares so deeply for those around her-- especially her parents and two younger brothers. Each day Mads makes the time to invest in others whether that’s sitting down and asking “what’s really up” or picking up the phone for a two-hour call. She genuinely and full-heartedly cares for those around her. 

She has so much joy that those who don’t know true joy cannot grasp her pure heart. Jesus flows through Mads visibily and radiantly. 

Mads you have become one of my closest friends. You are a role model in my life and an accountability parter. I look up to you and firmly believe you aid me in deepening my relationship with the Lord. 

Your heart that sets fire to the soul is the most brilliant, amazing, and breath-taking virtue. I cannot wait to see you spread this love, this joy into the world. You are going to make and amazing disciple, and amazing friend, and an amazing nurse.
 Love you bunches mad. 
Just a girl who likes to crack some jokes, make you laugh, and loves her fam bam and friends.

                             Imagine this: a tall, awkward girl with arms and legs longer than the neck of a giraffe begins to make her way towards you—you are unsure if she is trying to dance, spazzing out, or if her shoes are too big and she's just tripping over the obvious flat ground. ME. That's me coming toward you making incoherent sounds (beep bop, bglaahhh, skzzztttt) mouth gaping open and eyes wide.  I'm coming to you with a joy from the Holy Spirit, a heart full of love, and more puns and dad jokes than even my mom can handle. I do this by being myself and not anybody else, by letting out the goofy side, and striving to do my favorite t hing—making others laugh.  If you know me, you know that my favorite quote is " walk towards love and away from fear .” I was told this about a year and a half ago by one of my favorite people in the world, Vonya Eudy, who is filled with w...

This is Catherine  Called “Cathy” by her close friends. Cathy is my best friend. You can betcha this girl made my life better. Cathy and I became close friends the last two years of high school. We have some memories together that can’t ever be taken away. I LOVE this girl.  Catherine is a hard worker. Whatever task she is given you better believe it’ll be done to the full potential. Through One Act, she was viewed as one of the greatest leaders. Catherine is a leader who will never disappoint. She leads with grace, integrity, and passion for the job at hand. Not only is she a leader but an encourager. Through hard times, good times, sporting events, rolled ankles, and just in general Cathy always has something to say that will boost you up.  The summer before we left for college Cathy and I had lots of deep conversations, drives around town, crying sessions, faith talks, and would even go swing at the park. She is a true friend. Always taking into cons...

This is Ellen Ellen is my big in Theta. When I first met her as my big I had no idea who she was. I tried so hard to look so happy and enthusiastic while at the same time trying to figure out what her name was. Even though I didn’t know her I felt in my heart that I already loved her. We turned and began awkwardly dancing at each other instead of speaking but that language was good enough for us both to know that it was a match.  Ellen is the blessing I never knew I needed. She is a role model and a mentor. Ellen has spent the majority of her summers working for Camp Ozark ministering to young children and serving as influence. Her fire and flame for her position here is so strong and so amazing.  This year I have had the opportunity to watch Ellen’s relationship with the Lord spark. I’m not even sure if she knows it has—but girly, it has. One day at bible study Ellen had an “ah haaa” moment when she discovered her relationship with Christ wasn’t just a “hey...
