YFC

For 5 days or so I have been at camp in Colorado with my Youth For Christ kids and YFC students from all over Iowa and a handful from the UP.
The week was great despite the everyday occurrence of rain. The theme was "Confidence" and it was applied to God's word, your identity in Christ, and in who God is. The sessions, directed at the students were even powerful for me and I felt myself grow stronger in my relationship with God. The best part of the trip had to be my small group. Even though I had a great time shopping in Estes Park (buying many toys and carmel apples) and I loved white water rafting (even though I didn't get to save any of the many swimmers) my small group was the best. Each student was so open and willing to let us be a small part of their lives. We had a lot of powerful prayer. Todd, my co-leader was a great person to work with. I also made a lot of friends with other Christian leaders which helped with my confidence in my ability to lead.

I'm so jealous of you guys! Here I am, stuck in plain old Minnesota while you two get to grab the bull by its horns, make the world your oyster, and all those other crazy metaphors. And then theres me. Stuck at the library, day in day out. Nah, I love it there. Just last week the US Marshalls came in looking for a fugitive. Welcome to the East Side, baby! Can't wait to see you again...
