It's almost time :)

I honestly can't believe it--here we are 3 weeks away from camp. I didn't actually think the would ever come, and it is fast approaching. The emotions are varied--excitement, anxiousness, joy--it truly is a dream coming true.

God is incredibly faithful, and I can't believe it still shocks me. Never once has He failed me. Never once has He given me a task that could not be completed in His strength. Never once has He failed to provide exactly what I needed at exactly the right time. I've had moments when the list seemed to long or tasks seemed impossible, and every time He has provided in abundance.

The loose ends are beginning to be tied up, but there is still so much to be done. The final details are beginning to fall into place, and yet there are so many things that still need my attention. Please pray for strength, endurance, and wisdom in these coming weeks--I have no doubt that the evil one will do everything in His power to stop things from happening. However, we have a God who is greater. A God who is sovereign and in complete control. I'm thankful that He is fighting for me. I am thankful that He will accomplish all that He wants to in His own power.

There are so many exciting moments on the horizon. On the 15th I will be speaking at an open day at the church we are partnering with in Alex. I will be sharing the vision of The Hidden Place with the church, as well as with the parents of the kids that will be attending camp. My prayer is that the impact doesn't end at camp, but that it is a starting point of discipleship with the families. Please pray that God will begin to soften hearts to His Gospel. Then in just a little over 2 weeks, the team from America arrives! I cannot wait to see all of them and have a piece of home here for a few weeks :) Please pray that as they journey here things will go smoothly and that God will begin to prepare their hearts for what He has in store.

Thank you guys so much for your support and encouragement--it is incredible. Please continue to pray in the weeks to come--Pray for the hearts of kids and leaders--Pray that God would do more than we could ever ask or imagine. All I desire is that His name is honored and made known.

Love to you all--
