I love kids!

One week done already and onto the second. Camp is so awesome. I am growing soo much, stepping way out of my comfort zone and just pouring God into these girls. I love my cabins and have been so blessed by the personalities of the girls that I have had the pleasure of living with. This week on the first day we won cabin clean up and got to sleep in the tree houses. We have also been memorizing our verses and so are on the good path to winning the ice cream sundaes this week. I have a super enthusiastic cabin unlike last week which was completely apathetic toward everything.

I am getting all the camp songs stuck in my head and the actions down pat now. It's fun. I really miss going to camp like back in the day though. I have made some great friends even though I don't get to hang out with them a lot but on the weekend I got to go out for dinner and lunch to get away from camp and refresh. Lonnie and I have this prayer book going where we write notes to each other on our free time. It's been so great to have encouragement and love from someone like that.

Pray that God will continue to be at work at this camp, opening the hearts of hardened campers and binding the devil from running rampart in the thoughts of everyone. For me you can really pray for patience as it has never been a strong virtue and is even harder when I am stressed and a little overtired.

I am getting super dark from the sun although today it is raining and a little too cold to be in the water or outside. My campers still ordered ice cream though, crazy, but they love it. I still can't believe that I am working at camp and am loving every minute of it. I am so blessed to have a Heavenly Father that knows my paths and where I am headed even when I don't. I have had to trust in Him so much lately as I don't have the words or abilities to really reach these girls without His help.

I am having a really fun time too playing the games, getting to know everyone, working out occasionally, soaking up the sun, and being creative. I love it. Later days!
