1 week...7 days...168 hours...10080 minutes...604800 seconds

First I'd like to send a shout out to my Camp Director, Meredith!  She told me that she read my blog so I thought I'd just take the time to acknowledge that.  I appreciate her and her dedication to our team and everything that she is doing to prepare us for an awesome summer.  She is extremely encouraging especially when I mess up on I-9 forms and expense reports.  

To the latest news...I participated it what we like to call OMC (organized mass chaos) today.  Basically you run around like a crazy person and complete different tasks.  It was fun until Matt Weston sprayed shaving cream in my mouth and inside of my ear.  But, I am super excited to do this for the next nine weeks with the kids.  It will be a good opportunity to purposely get dirty.  :)

Next, I am off to sit with other people who are teaching the same track times that I am teaching this summer but that are on different teams.  Hopefully they will have some amazing ideas that I will be able to use because I would HATE to have a horrible track time.  

I'd like to leave ya'll with this...
"Watch your life and doctrine closely.  Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers." - 1 Timothy 4:16
We all have amazing opportunities to be lights to those around us.  If we continually watch our lives and the doctrine we are living by, people will be saved.  I am so grateful for the opportunity that the Lord has given me to be a light to kids who do not know him.  Once again, I am SO thankful for your continued prayers.  I will see kids one week from today and that makes me very excited. 

Love ya'll!  

(oh and I can perform almost a whole song in sign language too!  who would'a known :))

  2. Tori! I love hearing about your adventures...especially OMC...I think we should adopt that at Second Mile, what do you think? Ha! It's fun for me to hear how you're taking on the Southern accent...I did many a summer projects with southerners and they ALWAYS said I had the accent, not them! Keep up the great work and happy to hear you got to experience a real, live Southern Baptist church in the south - Ha! Love you! - Julie
