Jess

Jess is a freshman nursing student at UMass Boston that I've been meeting with all year. In September, she emailed the Real Life Boston address to ask if she could met up with someone on a one on one basis. I was so excited to have a student who was not only teachable, but also willing to be available.

Jess is from Western Mass and lives in the on-campus apartments. Her roommates, Tiffany, is her closest friend at school, but they do not align on many biblical issues. Jess also has a serious boyfriend, Joe, at home. Between school work and Joe, Jess has not been able to branch out that much (but for the most part she is ok with it).

On Thursday, Jess and I had our last discipleship time till the Fall. We had a great hour together at Starbucks, laughing and sharing with one another what God has done in our lives over the past year. It has been great to see how much we've both grown. It has been a joy getting to know Jess over the course of the year.
