it’s july already?!

where has this summer gone? i can’t believe it’s already july. i wish i had the time to tell you all of the things the Lord has been doing lately, but there’s so much i have to get done. let me just tell you…this summer has been incredible.

so much has happened the past few weeks. i got in a car wreck the day we left for camp. i wasn’t hurt, but my car definitely was. i went to camp, and it was unbelievable. it was a little different not being on staff, but it was great at the same time.

i learned that what defines a “good camp” is not limited by how well the speaker & worship leader sing or speak, whether or not you are familiar with their names, or how many times you win the spirit stick, but by the way students are challenged and the way that the Lord stirs in their hearts and allows them to grow as individuals and together.

for the first time in 2 summers, i actually climbed on the bus with the same students i had hung out with all week, and i’m so glad i did. i can’t wait to continue to invest in, pray for, and encourage them as they walk out the decisions they have made.

not only did we have a blast and the sickest dance party i’ve ever been a part of, but we talked about things that actually matter, things that have an eternal impact, and things that change who we are and the way we live. i am so grateful to be a part of this church and what the Lord is doing here.

walking through life and hopefully leaving a mark.
