Ready to go

Its poring

Bittersweet

Well, we got back. Somewhat of a bittersweet time in my opinion. It's awesome coming home, don't get me wrong. But for the past three years, the mission trips have been by far my favorite week of each year. It's an awesome way to recharge away from home and refocus my faith while building relationships with others in Christ. Of course, it's not the only time I look towards for strengthening my trust in Jesus because I can do that here at home. But to some extent, sometimes I feel like I "live" for workcamp. It's the place where I am most energized for living and serving Christ. I never want to leave. But that's exactly the reason for coming back, so we can continue in "repairing" and "transforming" (theme of the week) the world here in Sunbury. I'm incredibly grateful to all our sponsors for believing in this mission. Can't wait to share about it!

Testimonies

For the last hour at 2am after a long week, Jackie and I read out loud the testimonies the kids wrote about their week.  I cannot express how much I needed to hear the experiences that they had.  Some grew in their faith, some grew in confidence and some grew their social circles.  These testimonies make me feel like the luckiest person in the world.  Not only do I get to watch these kids grow and mature into the next generation, but I get to see Jesus Christ leading their way.  Thank you God for sending me this direction 10 years ago at Workcamp.  Truly the greatest weeks of my life.

He ruined me.

I am reading the Jesus centered youth ministry book given to us at camp.  Love this line.  

"I don't understand a lot of what you teach and what your saying, but I know I have nowhere else to go.  You've ruined me for you". 

How cool would it be to get to the point where nothing else matters, except Jesus.
