every new beginning...

comes from some other beginning's end.

tomorrow begins another beginning, another summer of camp. i'm going to be on a different staff, in a different state, working with different people from last year. i've longed for philadelphia since i left last july, but God's will for me is here, even if it's hard to accept that.

i'm excited about what's to come, though it will be different. i know there's a reason i've been placed here, and a purpose. maybe i'll figure out it, or maybe i'll never know. i'm just trying to be willing and positive and look toward what's to come, and the many new friends i will make, and being able to serve again in such an awesome way.

so, if you get the chance, lift myself and my team in your prayers. pray for adults and students coming to camp, that God will give them willing and open hearts to serve and to learn. pray for the work that will be done in the upstate, and for God to use that for His glory. pray for staff unity. pray for physical, emotional, and spiritual strength for those on my team.

for me...my prayers are a little different. pray that i will not compare this summer to last summer, but will just enjoy being a part of this again. pray that i will find my place on this staff, and build lasting relationships. pray for a whole lot of energy and patience, and discernment as i teach some difficult aspects of the Word. pray for wisdom and creativity to come and teach me different ways to minister to others. pray that God will use me, in some simple way, to help make a small difference in someone's life this summer, and that it will be for His glory and definitely not for mine.

to my friends in SC--please come visit! i would love to see y'all, and you can check out FUGE and see how we do things...just let me know.

i also really like mail. i mean, i really do...
