EMBRACING NORMAL
T 3
he last few months have been refreshing to say the least as mask protocols were relaxed and the pandemic restrictions gave way to some normalcy. Seeing the faces of students, employees, visitors... their smiles makes such a difference in one's day! Bypassing the social distant fist bumps that we've come to expect and going straight for the hugs and embraces that are famous on the YC campus is in a word — Aahh! God has blessed us, more than we know, through a year laden with questions of 'How?' 'Why?' 'Where?' 'When?' Calming our fears and anxieties, He has richly provided solutions and amazing blessings and we are so grateful! With that being said, what better way to show our gratitude than with faces that reflect His loving kindness. *Mr. and Ms. YC candidates: (l-r) Connie Nickell, Thaddaeus Kinney, Pierce Mederios, Kellie Fredendall, Elizabeth Ryan, Diego Korol, and Amber Jimenez – not pictured: Davi Mendonca.
