Last Day

It’s such a relief to say that tonight was my last night at Rockola. I have worked there for quite a while and frankly it was getting old because I could not see myself working there for the rest of my life. (let alone the rest of my college career) But the reason that I am quitting is only for the summer so I can do what I am crazy passionate about….CAMP!!! I love working at camp. Especially Merriwood Christian Camp because it’s amazing. When I think about it I just get uber-excited. Just the thought of spending a whole summer serving God and working with kids and being able to be a kid, in case you all didn’t know I’m a kid at heart. As soon as school was over a little load was lifted off my back and I was able to breath a little, now that I’m done with work my lungs are filled with fresh air and I am exstatic about this summer.

I can’t remember ever being excited about something before for so long. Ever since I left camp last summer I have been literally counting down the days when I could go back and just do what I believe God wants me to do. I’m sure hanging out with youth for a whole summer would drive most of you up a wall, I thrive on it. I love working with youth, they bring something out in me that nothing else can, I feed of their energy as much as they feed off of mine (and I have a lot). Right now I look forward not only to this summer but to the up coming years praying to God that I will be able to do this, and that I will be in a ministry that is truley blessed by him.

I ask of all who read this to pray for me as I face many challenges of kids who are homesick, or have “it” as we like to call it, kids who have questions that we as adults would never think to ask, and just being able to keep up with them all summer. And pray that I will let God work through me.

I leave on Tuesday for camp and could not be any more excited.
