Bethany graduate reflects on past, looks towards future

In a recent letter to Bethany, Rachel describes making the decision to attend Bethany as one of excitement—but also sadness. Rachel loved running track, and at the time Bethany didn't have a track team. Years later, she recounts the excitement and joy she felt upon discovering the Great Strides Capital Campaign plans for an on-campus track. 
 
"I am deeply grateful for the experience I had at Bethany...AND I missed running track," she wrote. "Seeing that it is now coming to fruition brings such immense joy to my heart. It is as if God is reminding me that all things are perfected in God's time. Just because we don't see it happening, doesn't mean it isn't or won't. Our call is to continue trusting and walking in the light. My call is to continue to say YES to Spirit, even if I don't understand exactly how it will all work out. 
 
Thank you for your YES and the way you are trusting and walking in the light as you lead Bethany onward and upward."
 
 
Rachel has donated $5000 of funds to match gifts during the week of March 22, 2021.
