Week 2: April McClung

How long have you know each other: Almost a year and a half

Where did you meet: The Baptist Collegiate Ministry at Georgia State

My favorite thing about April: She is one of the best listeners I know

The Story: I met April the second week of my college career at Georgia State. I ventured into the BCM not knowing ANYONE. Luckily, I met many of the people who I call my closest friends today, including April. 

During my Freshman year April and I didn't really get close until the end of the of the year. We didn't talk that much but I always new her as the lady who, "sits at the front desk who has a loud laugh" but since this year has started we have become much closer. She can't get rid of me now! She has such a sweet spirit about her. When people ask me to describe April all I can really say is that she is just April. I know that sounds silly but April never falters from her true self. She doesn't change when different people walk in the room or when she meets someone new. April is one of the most steadfast people I know. 

You can always count on April to listen, even if there are 20 screaming college kids in the room. I don't know how she does it! One of the best qualities that I think April has is that she follows in the obedience in the Lord. It's very clear that April doesn't rush things. She waits for the Lord to present her opportunities. She doesn't move without Him. 

April and I regularly bond over our love for southern culture. We both come from small towns so we share the same love for antiques, boys in boots, and sweet tea. 

I hope that you all can meet April one day. She is such a testament to what a Godly woman should look like and act. 

April, I love you! And thank you for inspiring me!

Sterl.
