I just wanted to stop by and wish you all a most wonderful Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

I have just finished my final fall semester at MAC. As I am packing up my room, I am reminded of some of the amazing memories from this year. After all the exciting programs, wonderful classes, and incredible new friends, I know that I am truly blessed.

My friends and I are heading down to Long Beach, Mississippi for a week. The college has organized this service trip with the help of Mission Integration and Campus Ministry. A group of about 20 students, including myself, will be helping an organization called Camp Coast Care and aiding in the Hurricane Katrina clean-up efforts. I have never been to Mississippi, so I am incredibly excited for the opportunity. We will even get to spend a day in New Orleans. I'm definitely bringing the camera, so be ready for pictures!

I want to thank you for spending another semester with me and reading about all the interesting stories and opportunities MAC has to offer. It has truly meant the world to me.

I hope that you have a very safe and enjoyable holiday season. Also, please remember those who are not as fortunate as we are and keep them in your prayers.

See you in the New Year!! 2009 :o)

God Bless,

Laura
