Camp starts next week

In 7 days and 4 hours and 7 minutes, counselors will be arriving for the first day of Orientation. At that point, camp does not stop until July 12. As the summer staff, our days will consist of campfires, swimming, games and worship. We will eat, play and live together. We will be family, friends, support, co-conspirators and exhausted. Over 300 campers pass through our care.

During Orientation, my job is to teach the counselors how to do the very best job they can. We prepare for emergencies and pray they never happen. We play all sorts of games and tell lots of stories. We learn the camp schedule and way of life and get better at building one-match fires. The most important thing we will do next week is get to know each other. Happy counselors mean happy campers. Happy campers means a happy program director. :)

We will have the opportunity to share the love of Jesus with over 300 campers in a matter of 6 weeks. This is a huge deal! This is how we are going to change the world. Please pray for all of us as we embark on this great adventure. We'll see you on the other side. :)
