22kilos? Are you crazy?

So Zoom and their weight restrictions are my new frustration in life - 22 kilos indeed. Fine for a week long trip... but loads of gear and a year in several locations to think about isn't so hot.
God is good though... I had a day of panic that was lame, and then now I'm all packed and under the weight restriction with everything I wanted and then some. Nice how the whole not worrying about tomorrow b/c it has enough troubles of it's own is something that works eh? Kind of like Jesus knew what He was talking about.

So I'm packed now - yes, it's a day early, but I'm glad. I fly out on Thursday, and tomorrow some family are coming by so I'll be able to enjoy my last full day in Canada for a wee while.

Camp was really fantastic and all, but it feels like a dream that was years ago!! This is pretty short, but I'm not feeling too inspired and mostly I'm just weary of packing. Time to go unwind and read a book or somethin!
Rawk on.

is it over now?

goodness me, nine weeks have come and gone and camp is now finished for me.

as i sit here in the office, it seems very much impossible that the summer has flown by. In case i've not written it yet, the coolest part of my summer was probably the bit when i got engaged!!!! crrrrazzzy. i asked God to provide a man for me who loves Him, wants to do ministry and so many other things, and all of these are wrapped up in this one guy who i love very much.

otherwise, i have seen God work so much and have prayed so much and my head is spinning and feeling a little overwhelmed in the moment. and i haven't even started packing, but i'm leaving tomorrow morning! next on the roster is to head home, get my life in order and then fly to the UK in two weeks. THAT'S insane.

i can't even grasp all of what has happened here at camp, i may write a bit later when i can handle it all! for now though, let me only say that God is incredibly good and i have been ever so blessed as i've spent my time here!
rawk on.

full of an intense veggie juice

so I found this new vegetable juice that is really intense. I couldn't even finish it all... It's amazing how excited I feel when I can eat foods that are healthy and easy on my body.
well, that was for free.

So here I am at camp, outtrips come back today. I'm Co-directing and Head Counseling this week... tomorrow I get to Head Instruct climbing for the afternoon. It felt good, since I don't actually get to climb much, it was fun to go the other night with a couple of girls and be able to get up with more ease... maybe I am finally getting a bit better?! hope so!

We've been praying a lot, and things have been going really fantastic. Each of our days this camp have an ethnic theme to them so that they'll be more exciting. I don't know what else I have to write that's super exciting about life these days. Pretty much it's just really challenging to be living in Christian community at a camp continually. I've been learning a lot about myself and have been seeing very different tones at each camp. I'm praying that we will have more children than the other camps combined meet with God for the first time this camp.
We'll see what happens!

shalom.
