Things. Lots of things.

What a crazy, cool, riggin' last couple of weeks! I know that some people are still confused about what I ended up doing this summer or have yet to find out. That is what this post is about.

About 3 weeks ago now I was approached by someone. This person shared their heart with me and some convictions that they have had and basically told me that they felt so strongly about their conviction that they would like to sponsor me for half of my summer support to go back to Lone Tree Lakeshore for the summer. This was one of many things that happend within 4 days that looked like an amazing door that was a mile wide I am not going to disregard it. After talking out every angle with about 5 people that were un-bias between Lone Tree Lakeshore and San Diego Summer Project along with lots of praying and thinking and lists of pros and cons I decided to come to back to Lakeshore.

After all of that, here I am. I just finished up my fist week here at camp and we will be starting staff training on Monday. I have meet all of the staff and I can honestly say that I am so excited to see what else God has for me this summer. He has already answered some of the prayers here at camp by providing an incredible staff in something less than 2 weeks as well as providing a way for those people to get here.

I got to camp this week on Sunday night and I havent stopped working until today for the most part. We have been pulling weeds, sweeping sand and setting anchors for the water toys. I am sore, tired and I cant wait to do it all again next week for Jesus.

Next week (June 4-8) I will have the chance to get to know the entire staff a little better (only 3 of the 5 were here this week) through teaching/learning all of the different activities that we will be doing with the kids when they show up. Our first group will be arriving on Saturday, June 9th,  and they will be leaving Monday morning, June 11th. They are a small group of 14 from New Mexico State University. The next group will be pulling in right after the first group leaves and they will be staying until Friday June 15th. All I know about them is that they are a small youth group of about 15 people. So, I guess that tomorrow is my last day off until the 12th (dont worry, Ill spend it fishing after church).

I hope this helps clear the air about what I am doing with my life this summer as well as give you some insight into what my next 2 weeks will be looking like. I want to thank all of you for supporting me in one way or another. If you happened to send a check to Campus Crusade, I made sure that the money was going towards someone who wasn't able to raise all of their support. If you made the check out to me, I just transfered that money over to Lone Tree. I hope all of you have a wonderful summer! Keep loving and pursuing Jesus and I can promise that he will take care of you through the thick and the thin. But, dont take my word on that matter, hit up God for that one in the Bible. Try Matthew 6:29-31.

Prayer stuff:
1. For safety next week
        Some of the staff will be learning how to do things that they never have done before so that can be       dangerous.
2. For The Fist 2 Groups that will be coming in about a week.
       That They will see the Holy Spirit in us as they send time here at camp and that they will be moved by the Holy Spirit.
