Switches

I created a blog when I first moved to Chesapeake on something called tumblr, I then found out from my lovely high school friends that that is what "cool kids" have... then I switched to blogger, haha. Here are my posts from the past 6 months of my living in a new town, with a new job, new friends and a Lord who is ever present and ever a provider...

From Goshen to Delaware
OK,
So for the past 4 months I have been baking my heart out in Goshen Virginia at a Young Life camp called Rockbridge. I served alongside 13 other interns whose jobs included: waterfront, rec tech, EMT, AM cook, PM cook, snack bar, ropes, bikes, video, office, sound, landscape, and guest services (don’t worry I don’t fully understand what that job is either.) We served as a team alongside the property there to allow God to use us and work to give thousands of high school and middle school students the best weeks of their lives. This summer truly was life changing and I am just so thankful that the Lord would grant me with such an experience that would push me and grow me so drastically in my faith.
I left Rockbridge Sunday to catch a train from Lynchburg back home to Delaware to rest and hopefully finish fundraising for about 5 days. After sucessfully leaving my cell phone in VIrginia I was welcomed home with good food, family and friends. After shedding countless tears over my sudden standstill in fundraising and feeling completely helpless I was able to seek the Lord harder than ever in this process of going on Young Life staff. I truly have no idea what He is doing and although I feel as though His hand is so far from my own I am slowly seeing He will provide in His time and not my own.
SO tomorrow I leave to go back to Virginia and commence the process of fundraising all over again. Pray for me as I become extremely vulnerable with friends and family as I ask them to be a part of my team in Chesapeake. Hey, anyone feeling the need to write a check for 10K? Hey, it was worth a try…
