About Me

I am Amelia. I am now Mrs. Ryan Thompson. I am still learning a whole lot about life and about myself. We are living in Dubuque until God tells us to move and then we will be moving to...someplace! Denver, Minnesota, Madison...Africa? We shall see! I am just about done here at Emmaus and move on to the real world. And what can I do with a Bible degree you may be asking? Well, I guess I'll find out. :-) Right now I am employed nearly full time at Panera Bread (good bread, good bagels, great soup, excellent salads, yummy sandwiches!) :-)
