Day One!

Today was the first day of DTS!! Whoohoo! Most of the students arrived Saturday and the rest came in Sunday. We have an awesome group this year. There are six girls and four boys from all over the place. We have students from Canada, Hawaii, Washington, Florida, and Montana, just to name a few. They are all very hungry to learn and on fire for God. I'm super stoked about how God is going to use them and work in their lives.

Sunday we had a big Welcome Bash with awesome food and Introductions and today our schedule started. We had worship and intersession followed by orientation. It all went really well!

I'm really getting excited about being staff! I'm finally understanding why God called me here. I am still working on figuring out my roll, but I'm beginning to get it down. Basically I just have to be myself, hang out with the students, be an example, and be there for them when they need someone. I also work in the kitchen, help plan events, and occasionally I give a teaching, or lead worship and intercession. 

So far I'm really enjoying myself. I know there will be challenges and I will definitely have to stretch, but I know that God will be there to give me strength when those times come.

I really appreciate your prayers and support! Blessings on you all!

In Christ!

Prayer points:

1. I still need about 400 dollars of monthly support. I have no idea where its coming from, but right now I'm just trusting God to provide.

2. Wisdom to be able to speak into the lives of the students.

3. A willingness to be vulnerable.
