3 weeks down 1 to go...

Hey guys!! This is Amy. I can't believe that 3 weeks has already gone by. It seems like yesturday that we were at Camp Sooner...but it has almost been 3 weeks. WOW!!
Right now the team and I are at some Nebraska Furniture store....but this store has EVERYTHING.I am actually on one of thier laptops writing this....their computers in the store have internet. How cool is that?!?!?! Yeah, I know pretty cool!!! We aren't in Nebraska or anything like that. We are in Kansas City...well the Kansas side of Kansas City. We just went to Cabella's. That was the first time that I have ever experienced anything like that. It was pretty cool.
Here is some funny stuff that all of you I am sure would like to know. Today i petted a cow!!! It was the coolest thing ever. It was a little baby. Her name was Coco. THEN I got to ride in some thing that seperated the grain from the stalks. Ya know the movie CARS???? Ya know FRANK that chased the main character? It was one of those!!! SO COOL!!!! I will post some picutres when I get a chance. I think that all of you would like them. I also got to ride on a 4-wheeler for the 2nd time in my life. That was pretty cool. AND Rachel's Mom made us the most AMAZING home made pizza and cookies. yum yum. I liked them a lot. I will post picures of the day as soon as I can.
Last week was really good at West Central. We met some awesome students and staff. I am really excited to work with some of the same youth ministers again this week.
Well...this store is about to close in 10 minutes and I don't want to get yelled at. So until next time...
Good-bye Loyal Readers!!
In Christ,
Amy
Ps... I love you MOM!!!
Pss....I love you NAN!!!!

My 2 Cents....


Hey Ya'll!! This is Amy. Today was our first day off. It was really nice to be able to sleep in and just hang out. I got to watch 5 episodes of Dr. Quinn (thanks goes to Susan!!)...and that was AWESOME!! Today Will, Rebecca, and I went to my house in Bentonville, Arkansas (about an hour away from Joplin) to eat some lunch and hang out. It was a lot of fun and we have a few videos from going that we will put up soon. I hadn’t been home in almost a month so it was good to be able to see my family and have a home cooked meal. Praise God for Mom’s that can cook!!!
Camp Sooner was really awesome. I have to be honest and say that i was really nervous because someone had told me that it was really rustic…and well if you get to know me I am the most non-rustic person known to mankind. Knowing that was really hindering me from getting excited about going but as soon as I got onto the camp my nervousness was completely at ease. It was not bad at all and I had a WONDERFUL week. I loved all the people that I met there and I was really upset when the week was over that I had to say goodbye to all my new friends. I can’t believe how time really does fly when you are having fun.
We are heading off to Pittsfield, IL tomorrow. I think it is about 5 hours away…but knowing how our team gets lost it will probably take us about 6 hours. The theme for this week is “Myspace”. I am REALLY excited to see how the week goes. I think that the theme is really unique and I know that the deans have worked really hard to make it the best week of camp ever.
I hope everyone enjoys the videos that we put on in our last post. We should be putting on some more whenever we get some time.
Thank you to all of our loyal readers and watchers.
In Christ,
Amy

Camp Sooner!!!

Whew! What an awesome week for all of us on team 29. We all had a blast and have memories that last a lifetime. It's hard to believe with all that we have learned and experienced that there is still three weeks of camp left! The other camp teams from St. Louis Christian College, Dallas Christian College, Nebraska Christian College and Manhattan Christian College were so much fun to hang out and they all are definetely going to be missed. The theme of the week was "The Time is Now" challeneged the camp teams as well as the campers about priorities and faithfulness to God. Our team is praying for the campers going back to lives outside of a Christian camp to be full-on for God and willing to be changed and filled with the Holy Spirit.

a startling revelation...

hey y'all! it's 1 o'clock sunday morning and team 29 will be leaving in less than 9 hours for Camp Sooner in Oklahoma. whew! it's already arriving! this is my [William] second summer on camp teams and i still have the same fears like i did last year. my fears is that i won't measure up to what others are doing in the kingdom. i was praying about it tonight and i realized that i measure up to God. Romans makes it very clear that my sin is cleared away in order to be with God (Romans 6). I'm going to sleep now--i'll be posting again on friday!-william
