Gimme some summa

Wow-it's already July!!! That is so crazy. Where has summer gone? I'll be moving in to my new apartment with three of the most amazing girls in one month!

This summer has been so amazing so far. I had the amazing opportunity to be a leader at beach retreat with Michelle and Jonathan and their high school ministry at Second Baptist Church in Houston, TX. It was incredible to witness what amazing things they have done at that church. The high school ministry has grown so much, and God has been very faithful. It was so fun to see how much all the students love them and to be able to claim them as my family :) I had an incredible group of 7 girls who just finished their freshman year in high school. I learned so much from them, and it was such a fun week because of those girls. There was another leader in our group, Caitlin, who is the same age as me, and we had a blast together. I still talk with my girls a lot, and it has been so great to see them continue to seek after God even after camp has ended.

For the past week or so, I have been at Kanakuk. It is an amazing Christian camp organization. I am at K-2-which is one of the camps, and it has been a blast so far. It took a few days to get into the swing of things, but I love it. It is a great place to just go, get away from the outside world, and seek after God. There is an emphasis on sports, and the campers choose a specialty and get to work on enhancing their skills in that sport during the day. I am actually babysitting the women's director's daughter. She turns 13 next week, so I'm not really babysitting her-more like just hanging out with her. She is a mess and is pretty funny. We are pretty similar in the fact that we love to dance and swim, love the Lord, and have the same sarcastic sense of humor. I am on my time off right now, enjoying using my computer and phone. I'm enjoying Panera and their free wifi, that is enabling me to catch up on the Bachelorette and watch clips of So You Think You Can Dance :)
I'll be at kamp for a few more weeks, and I'm so excited for what all God has in store for me.

Be praying that God will continue to move in amazing ways at Kamp. He has done some incredible things already!!
