March 14, 2011- Lennon Dodson

Lennon, from the moment I met you I could not wait to be your friend. Lennon was my counselor my Sunnyside year and if she could deal with me at sixteen, she could deal with anyone. She was one of those counselors you couldn't help but adore, and never ceased to put a smile on my face. I didn't really get to know Lennon as a friend and sister in Christ until the next year when we were both on staff, and ever since the have just grown to love her more every day.

If you haven't had the opportunity to have a conversation with Lennon, I am so sorry. She is truly one of the most genuine people I have ever known and could not be sweeter. She is encouraging and uplifting in the way she relates to others and makes you really feel confident in who the Lord molded you to be rather then who the world want's you to be. It is a unique gift to find in someone and I am so thankful that God placed her in my life when he did. At the age where I felt the most unsure and worthless, she reminded me of how strong and worthy Christ is for me. Lennon, thank you for always being someone who encourages me to be silly and laugh at myself, but also remind me to glorify the Lord though it all. I am so thankful for the role model position the Lord placed you in, at the perfect time in my life and how beautiful our friendship has grown out of that. Remember how beautiful and precious you are to your creator, I love you forever.
