Hey guys! So sorry that I haven't written till just now. However, silly me, I left my computer cord at home, and so the internet wasn't an option. Rachel, my beautiful friend and fellow summer missionary, has graciously lent me her laptop and I am sitting in an internet cafe.
The Adventure has been amazing! It turns out that I'm staying in Beaufort the whole summer. I am staying in the apartment bottom of a retired pastor's house. Mr. Tom was in a chaplain in the Navy. Mrs. Erma is just a sweet treasure of a lady. We live in a very nice neighborhood with our own dock that is on the river (an outlet of the ocean). Some nights we sit out there, and watch the dolphins swim by. It is so awesome.
Since I am staying in one place, I have 13 fellow summer missionaries and a supervisor that make up my familly. The whole group is called "LowCountry Ministries." So let me introduce you to my family, first there is "Dad" or Larry, my supervisor. Next is Kyle, the only man with 13 women. That makes life interesting. Kyle is on the Sports Team with Leah, Liz, Kellie, and Courtney. I already knew Liz from Winthrop, so its been a blessing to have a familiar face around. Then there is Emily and Tiara who are the rest of the Kids Connexion team. The Community Ministries team consists of Krystal, Rachel, Susan, Mandy, Jessica, Hailey. All together we are a happy family.
Everyone is the family plays a valueable part. It is truly phenomenal how we all fit together so well. We could not do what we do without the efforts of every person.
Please pray for unity to continue throughout the whole summer. Pray for us to individually be growing closer to God, and for us to grow closer throughout the summer. Pray that we stay focused on the goal.
Thanks for your prayers and support. You are truly a major part of what I am able to do this summer! Every child I bless is due in part to your prayers, and your encouragement that keeps me going!
I love you! I'm sorry this is long. I'll try to write again real soon!
