HEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! Here I am writing from the crooked chair in the office at Shackford (the building we have our sessions in for the summer) working at Lake Junaluska (take 2)! I can't believe I've already been here 2 and a half weeks and the youth show up tomorrow. I'm beyond excited. God is really teaching me a lot already. Last summer I prayed for a long time for God to open my heart before realizing God had been working in me the whole time. So this year I knew I had to show up to the lake with an open heart ready for God to get some work done (not that He doesn't work on me at home or anything). I just believe God brings me to the lake to take the rest of my hectic world away from me so I can get back to where I want to be. I hope that makes sense, it makes sense it my head at least!
Anyways, its been a whirlwind of a 2 and a half weeks at the lake. I was here for a week before my mom called me and updated me on Nana's health. The hospice nurse told us to get the whole family to here ASAP. So I drove home in tears just praying she'd be alive still when I got home--she was and we visited throughout the weekend. We thought it might be Nana's time to meet Jesus but nope! I'm seriously convinced she's just trying to set the record for Most Times Surviving Hospice. This was #3! Go Nana!
Before heading home, we got our individual assignments and I'm leading the missions team in coordinating mission sites throughout the summer. This is such an exciting position. While I've been on plenty of mission trips and I love doing mission work, this position is very unique to anything I've done before. I'm using my phone skills I've acquired in Admissions (thanks Parker!) and trying to work with as many places that need volunteers this summer as possible. I know God is going to do great things and I've got a pretty great team I'm working with.
Last weekend was a highlight I must say. Saturday night, Miranda and I started watched wedding videos while making what seems like 5.6729 billion bracelets for a response we're doing. So I found some new videos I really enjoyed, maybe you will too. Also, I've shown many new people just how exciting and precious wedding videos are. Of course I love love and I love weddings but what I really love most about these videos is I get to see people happy and in love!!!!! Since my blog only likes YouTube videos, I can only attach a link but I promise you they're worth watching!!!!
And this one is definitely a top contender as far as wedding videos go....
That's all for now! I can't wait to update you with all the fun stuff God's opening my eyes to. Loves ya!!!
