Mid camp update

Blog  Hey guys, sorry I haven't updated much since I've been here. Things have been moving pretty fast. Staff training went pretty well, a little confusing because of the power outage but pretty good. It was a little strange because I am won of the oldest now.  The first week was teen camp. There weren't a whole lot of campers, but we knew everyone by name and it felt like family. We got to the final staff meeting looked around and scratched our heads because there were so few leaders. God truly provided for us in many ways that week. I cabin led that week with a friend of mine and only five campers.   Last week was a bit different. I was in charge of leadership training, which was difficult. The week was difficult and trying, but we got to preach the gospel to the kids so it was a great week.  This week is different for me. I have no official job so I have been floating helping where needed. There is a deaf person working so it is a great deal of fun conversing with him and interpreting. Also am leading music this week which is a lot of work, but quite fun. Singing one of the songs I wrote tonight and another tomorrow.  This week God has been teaching me a bit about some different areas of my life like ministry and family. I'm eager to see how these next few days go.  Please that we, the staff finish strong and keep our focus right, we are in about the middle of camp so for those of us working all summer we need to remain strong against spiritual attacks.  Please also pray there has been a bear at the neighbors place and we heard it last night (it doesnt help that I am staying in a cabin called Bear Country)  That is a brief wrap up of the past few weeks we still have one week of kid's camp, jr. Teen and discipleship weeks left after this. Please continue praying for us.
