Training Camp

I will try and explain exactly what I am doing! It is crazy busy here. Since last Wednesday, 150 kids arrived at AIM for a one week training camp to prepare them for their trip to different countries. Our intern group is on Serve Team which means we are up by 5am and don’t leave until 8, 9, or 10 at night. We serve food, clean up dishes, clean bathrooms, bedrooms, the office, refill water around the camp, and anything else they need help with. The day everyone got here, Caleb and I set up 20 tents and made a major path with woodchips. It has been a rough couple days and I still have until next Wednesday. Its hard not to have a bad attitude but God has been helping me. It’s really cool to be apart of such a big movement of people working for Christ! Even though we are in the backround, I know we are making a difference. I miss everyone so much and I miss Minnesota so much. Georgia is a rough state to live in. The weather is always hot…even when its raining. The humidity is high all the time…I don’t sleep with a shirt on ever! The bugs are weird and the culture is a lot different. It’s fun to see how people live so differently and how they have different phrases for things. I get made fun of a lot here for my Minnes-O-tan accent. Caleb and I work with a lady who gave us 4 beautiful pieces of furniture from the pottery barn for our apartment. They are 3 sectionals which fit together perfectly, even though they are different colors…it looks like a guys house haha! I only have limited time to access the internet but whenever I can I will. I plan on getting internet next Saturday and it’s only $15 a month which is pretty cool. I miss you guys so much and can’t wait for it to be Christmas so I can see you! I also plan on coming up the first weekend in November for hunting, so maybe I will see some of you then. I already got the okay to come up.  Pray that the Lord gives me strength as I continue to work long hours with limited time for sleep! I love being down here and working for the Lord…I go to bed everynight with a good feeling inside.

Also, I will post pictures soon…calm down Mom…
