SLC Reochs: Start of a new School Year

Its been a whirlwind of a month - the first 6 weeks of the school year always are! We are really enjoying Salt Lake City and the surrounding area and so my pictures this month start off with some examples to show you why....

My office - not really, but when I get a chance to work outside on this part of campus I love it.

The view out the side window of my office.

President's Circle - my walk home everyday through the heart of the U of Utah. Downtown SLC in the background.

My gym - Sugarhouse Park where I (and sometimes Charis in a jogging stroller) go for a run.

Its been an exciting first month of school with ministry on campus. In the midst of it all I often forget to take pictures but I've posted a few to capture it:

Men's Lifegroup Bible Study- these guys bring a ton of energy each week. It can be a rowdy bunch but when its time to study they channel that energy into God's Word. I've been really impressed with this group!

Gathering students for the Crumazing (Cru Amazing) Race. Students got into teams and then had to go around campus taking pictures of themselves doing various challenges then post them to Facebook.

After the Race, Kate shared her story of coming to know the Lord. We were excited when one student in particular sought Kate out afterwards to ask her about her faith. (Full disclosure- this is Stephanie, but Kate was up right after and the scene looked about the same)

I know why you really read this blog, and its to see pictures of our family (by which I mean, our kids). So here they are:

Dad and Selah. I watched the kids a whole Saturday while Colleen was on a women's retreat. Whatever appreciation I had before for her job as mom was amplified! We had a good time just the three of us though.
