We have finally arrived in the little town of Greenville California. My staff and I got here on Sunday and just trying to make it our home now. Internet got here just this morning, and I really didn't understand how much I love it until I got it for a brief moment yesterday and then was taken away until this morning. Those 24 hours were very hard. Anyway, first week of campers come on Sunday and we still have work to get done. We have to build the showers still (hose water running for 3 shower heads for 60+ campers!!) and set up the port-o-potties which hopefully will come tomorrow. The biggest project that happened so far was moving a barn, and that was interesting.
My family here is awesome and I'm so excited to spend the whole summer with them. I am actually going to be a little sad when campers come because there will be no more real family time for just us.
But I absolutely love it. I've been able to run everyday and explore the town and mountains. It's definitely feeling like home. It's sooooo green here. Pictures are to come very soon!
Love to all!
Here is a little peek of the week thus far:
That is a very little peek. I don't see anything.
ReplyDeleteHey Heather!
ReplyDeleteI just read Sarah's blog, and thought I'd add my two cents worth. One of the most important things that I learned from YMSP is that our job as pastor/SLC is to create a space where God can work in the lives and hearts of others. God does the work of changing lives - not us. We work hard to create a space where others can listen to God, experience God's presence, and be delighted in by God. Once the space is created, we get to step back and let God work. We can even enjoy the space and let God work in our hearts as well. This is just a fancy way of saying that it's not all on you. Create a lovely space and then step out of the way and watch what God can do!!! You'll be amazed! Your faith is contagious and others will be moved by what you have to share with them.
Have a great first week with kids! Blessings to you and your SSP family!
p.s. Where are the pictures? I'm dying to see what your site looks like!
So exciting Heather! I didn't know about your headache issues....are they doing okay now? I'll be praying for you and the kiddos this week!
