I know its been a while, but i'll do my best to fill in... lets see.. on Saturday we had an adventure race. Before this race we all broke into teams of at least 4 people and 2 have to be girls. So my team had 6 people 3 guys and three girls. They were going to have prizes for the team that won and the team with the best costume, and one for teamwork. So we met by the pool at 730 am on Saturday to begin the race. My team was called the kindergartners. We all wore dorky shirts or dresses that kids would wear at 5-6 yrs of age. Lol. So we swam four lengths of the pool each and then biked about ten miles to our first mental challenge. Which consisted of throwing a rock and knocking down a can. Then biked 4 miles back and hiked a quarter mile up and down a waterfall. Then biked 5 miles back down and left our bikes then hiked up a mountain for 4 miles in both directions. To our second mental challenge which was a paper of ten random questions. Then biked about a mile back to where we started and had the final mental challenge which was putting up a tent and getting our whole team in it and then signing one verse of any song together then tearing down and putting it away. Then we were done. We finished in 4th at 3 pm. The toughest thing for me wasn't anything physical. It was hard for me to remain positive and encouraging. I found out i'm very competitive at heart and because of this i was a little frustrated in the fact that my team kept taking more break stops than i normally would. So the lord really taught me how to be a team player even in a race. It turned out to be really rewarding. My team was awesome and they taught me more than they know....
still doing great at work, and i'm still bringing up Christ in conversations. Nothing major has happened in my co- workers hearts yet so please keep praying for them. This last Wednesday we had a banquet in a very beautiful spot in the woods by a lake. There was several talks by the staff because this was the last thing the staff was able to do with us because they have officially left Thursday morning. The banquet was so much fun. We had a big dance once the staff left. Lol. So we are halfway through the summer and the lord has put us in a position where we could learn and grow emensly. We are all on our own and will be doing everything our selfs. It will be a great learning experience. :O) please keep us in your prayers.
