I'm here!

Hey everyone! I arrived into Charleston yesturday at around 10:30am. I had to wait a while for some other people from the team, and arrived on Southern Charlestons campus around 2ish. The campus is beautiful! And it is already so warm and humid. Today it was 90 degrees with 70% humidity! But I'm sure that I will get used to it! I have a really cool roommate for summer, and suite mates. Oh and my dorm room is the only one to have a full kitchen in it!. So we will have cold water all summer! yay! Oh yeah and the cafeteria food is actually really good!

We started training almost immediately after getting here yesturday. And as I sat there with 30 other amazing people from all over the country, I couldn't believe that I was really here doing this. I remember thinking when i was younger how "someday" I would go and be a staffer, and after 8 years I'm finally here doing it! I am just amazed at how God put that on my heart so many years ago, and when it was his time, called me here and gave me this oppurtunity.

So from now until Monday, June 9th we will be training. And then the first week of camp is the 9th-14th. We have a lot to go over, and learn in the next week, but so far it has been an awesome time.

Praises

• That all 30 members of our team made it to camp safely
• God has blessed me with some really awesome people to work with this summer
• I already feel like I have grown closer to God in only 1 day of being here

Prayer Requests

• Pray that God will continue to work in me and show me everything I need to know for the summer
• Pray that the staff can really get to know each other, and build close relationships, so that we can support each other like a family.
• Energy and a good attitude in everything I do!
  

I hope everything is going well at home! Sorry that I haven't really been able to call much, this is the first real break we have gotten since we arrived! We have training everyday from 7:30-late! lol. But I miss you guys!

Love you! :)
