SpringHill Address

Apparently, SpringHill has had some issues with the PO Box for summer staff. The correct one is PO Box 24.

In other news, I'll be at camp in FOUR DAYS!! So excited.

If you would continue to pray for peace for me, and for God to work in the lives of everyone at camp this summer, that would be appreciated.

Bienvenidos

I have decided to start a blog. Obviously.

I have thought about blogging, especially for this summer and this fall. I was then asked by a lot of people if I would write a blog. So I decided to. We'll see how it goes.

I chose the description of this blog from Praise Habit, a book by David Crowder. I chose this theme because it is how I try to live. I want to find God in everything, and I want to praise him in everything. I think this is also appropriate because I am heading into two brand new situations.

I'm going to be a camp counselor at SpringHill Camp this summer and I'm heading to Honduras this fall for a semester of Spanish studies.

If you know me, you know that change is not something that I particularly enjoy. I finally felt at home at Calvin College. I was growing and learning and it was so great. But it's time for something new. And this is so good. I'm nervous about the next six months, but I am so excited. I cannot wait for all these new adventures and everything that I'm going to see and witness and learn.

That's where this blog comes in. This blog will give me a place to share the ways in which God reveals himself to me in the next six months. This will be a way to tell of what I am learning and how God is growing me. We'll see how it goes. (It will be especially hard to blog while I'm at camp, but I'll try.)


I also love hearing from people. Snail mail is going to be a fun thing to do this summer at camp. If you write to me, I promise that I will reply every time.

Finally, I ask for your prayers; prayers for peace, courage, patience, wisdom, and love.

Shalom.
