Assignment!

Well, I'm currently sitting on camp, at one of the most beautiful places in the world. I get to live here for the rest of the summer! I have a summer assignment at Saranac, a YL camp up in the Adirondacks, starting yesterday! I have the privilege of working for a month on camp as the Summer Staff Coordinator. The Summer Staff are all the college volunteers that come to work for the month as life guards, work the ropes course, cooks, do laundry, work in the store & craft shack. And my job is essentially to love them! Best. Job. Ever. I'm really looking forward to this time. I love the camp environment. I love the people here. It's truly a gift to be here for the whole month of August. Please be praying during this time! Here's what you can pray for specifically:

• That I would trust Christ in the position of authority that he has entrusted to me this month
• Our SS has memorized and will focus on this passage: "If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:"
• Pray that I would have the same attitude as Christ Jesus
• For relationships amongst the camp staff and Assignment team (all the field staff like me who come live and work together for the month)
• That high school campers (& middle school the last week!) would meet Christ this month
• For the work crew (high school volunteers) & summer staff - that they would intimately experience Christ

Thanks for your prayer & support over this month!
