Getting ready for school and general life updates.

So I am going to be a teacher in Houston at Clifton Middle School. Can
you believe it I actually got into a school that will feed directly
into our youth group. God is so good!

I haven't seen my classroom here yet, but my mom is bringing all the
things from my classroom in Louisiana up this weekend, including my
grandma, who's is really funny and no is not part of my classroom just
additonal to my moms trip here.

I can't wait to get into my room so I can set everything up. That
really is one of my favorite parts.

In the mean time, we just got back from an incredible week of camp.
Now I know i could say that about every camp I've been to in the last
couple of years, but this one was a bit different. Our young adults,
which I'll have to post a pic of later, worked so hard under casey's
direction and of course the guidance of the holy spirit, to put
together dramas, games, videos, music, and messages. All of it, I mean
ever bit. They truely have talents that the Lord allowed them to use
this week to bring glory to His name. The students who btw were not
excited to go to the camp we had in mind for them, had a fantastic
time. We had a number of different type of decisions such as: coming
to know the Lord for the first time, refocusing the direction they
were headed in, pursuing their spiritual gifts, making war against
themselves and their selfish desires, and recognizing that their life
is being wasted unless they make some serious changes. Whoa... What a
week!

Thanks so much to all our financial and prayer supporters, drivers,
young adults and adults, drivers, and of course Jesus Christ for
making his week possible. I will live LOUDER than before... will you
join me?
