Girls from my small group series: Birdie

Alyssa aka Birdie

One of the girls in my small group is an Art Major. She switched to my small group after her small group leader retired from XA. When I first met Alyssa I instantly knew I wanted to spend more time with her but it took almost a whole semester before our schedules matched up. She has a way of making people feel comfortable in their own skin. Her sense of Humor and her easy going demeanor help just about anyone settle into a rich friendship with her.

In the course of a summer we went from schedules that never matched up to sweet sisterhood. She was with me on move in day at UTSA helping students move in and together we've shared both tears and some of life's funniest moments together. We studied Acts and John together and had a semester full of sweet small group nights as well. Alyssa took Chi Alpha's leadership Training Class last semester and her relationship with the Lord has blossomed. When she taught our small group towards the end of the LTC class she taught on Humility-complete with servings of Humble (Apple) pie.


Alyssa is an amazing artist! Here's some of her art work.
