So, it has been a little while since my last blog post...since being in Europe actually.
My summer in a nutshell?
- weddings galore
- more engagements
- studying for my NCLEX (RN national board test)
- passing my NCLEX and getting my RN license
- applying for a shot in the dark RN-Residency program at EvergreenHealth in their Family Maternity Center
- moving
- interviewing
- Canada trip with the family to Barnabas
- GETTING A JOB at EvergreenHeath as an RN-Resident!
- blessings upon blessings
- moving into a new place all by myself (scary!)
- growth
- learning
- change
I am incredibly blessed and honored by the Lord's purpose, direction, and guidance that has been bestowed on me during this last month. I am most definitely still working on processing through the idea that I am a fully employed nurse, let alone working in the field that I wanted to be in! I only hope that it will be a witness to others looking for direction, guidance, and provision. The Lord is faithful and overwhelms us with His grace so that we may share the good news with others - being the salt and light of this earth! I am so excited to be on this journey of learning what it is to be a real-life nurse, especially one working in the family maternity center. May I have the privilege of welcoming many new little faces into the world! Such an honor.
I have already, during these first 2 weeks of orientation, felt so supported by my unit as a new hire. The education department and fellow nurses on my unit have been very welcoming and encouraging as my cohort begins our employment at EvergreenHealth. There is much to learn, but I am convinced that despite whatever ups and downs may come along, this facility and the great staff here will be supporters! I look forward to reporting back on the progress of learning and experiences that I get to have here at Evergreen.
So thankful and blessed. Singing His praises!
