Friendly Friday

It's back...Friendly Fridays that is!  Hopefully you'll enjoy meeting our first face of the semester, Kelly Crider.  Be sure to check your inboxes because you might just be the next face of Fridays around here :).


Name: Kelly Crider
Major: Marketing Management
Coffee, Tea, or Neither?: Coffee 
What do you like most about VT?:  Well, I love a lot about Virginia Tech and am beyond blessed to be here, but I think one of my very favorite things about the place is the true feeling of community.  I also just adore the laid back feeling of the Town of Blacksburg.
If you could do anything without the possibility of failure and money wasn't a restraint: what would you do? I think I would want to do international mission trips!  See all of God’s creation while ministering to his people!  I would also love to do some more work in Inner City ministries, and maybe expand UrbanPromise!  Maybe also get coffee with just about everyone in the world and hear their stories and encourage one another, that could be cool!  Or make brownies for the whole world. I would also totally throw something crazy in there like ride over Niagra Falls or fly a plane!
What is your favorite thing to do to rest and/or relax? I like to put some Tenth Avenue/Chris Tomlin Pandora on and crawl in my bed, fuzzy socks on and covers all bundled J  Also, as of recently, go hammocking!
Are you reading any books right now? Well, outside of the Bible I got some nice textbooks I’m working on…but also I am reading Captivating and My Life is Not My Own.
Favorite place to eat lunch? On-campus probably West End…a hot chicken tender salad to be exact!
How has God encouraged you lately?  Well looking at John 4 this week in the studies God has really comforted my heart with the woman at the well.  Especially verses 17-19 how Jesus just lays the woman’s “baggage” right out there yet still pursues her, and SHE is the one who changes the subject.  That paired with Jackie saying at Big Weekend that Christ “has already loved me completely” have been encouraging to me in that I am broken, and the Lord knows yet still loves and accepts me and I can lay my burdens down with him at the cross instead of trying to run or hide with them!
