Full time ministry?

I got a call a week and a half before school was to start for CMS... asking me to sub! The teacher I was filling in for last semester was going to be out for a while, a couple of days later I found myself at new teacher training meetings, unpacking boxes, moving a classroom, and welcoming students at orientation. It's the strangest thing! Here I am, technically only a sub, now with a computer log-in, keys and pretty much functioning as a full time teacher. No loner referred to as a "substitute" but now an "interim teacher".
I have several of the same students from last year (in the Early Childhood II class) well as a whole new class of girls. Most are from tough neighborhoods and have experienced tough circumstances, and I will be spending "quality" time 5 days a week trying to make a little difference (Please pray I have wisdom)
My classes are basically training young ladies for a future in jobs such as day care & child care. Setting up nurseries and environments for young children ( I think I am qualified for this one) I kind of stumbeled into this job, I thought it would be a good fill-in until I could find a full-time ministry job.... Hmmmm I wonder when that will be!
