Westcliffe, Colorado where I'll be for two months!

Snowridge explained!

I just wanted to let you know what I've been doing lately. As most of you know, I go to Winthrop and I am part of Campus Crusade there. I got involved there last year and it has been great getting to know people who love the Lord and who are so welcoming. I have learned a lot about what God calls us to as Christians and I have really grown in my faith as well.

This summer I have an amazing opportunity to go with Campus Crusade on a summer project in Westcliffe, Colorado. It will be two months, from May 29 to August 6. I will be working with high school students at a six week camp. We will be ministering to them and spending time with them in addition to the normal camp activities. I will also be recieving guidance in leadership and ministry throughout my time there. I am so excited to learn more about the Lord and where He would have me. It will be a great learning experience because I will be receiving training on how to share my faith, not only in the mission setting, but in my everyday life.

You guys have been here for me and I would so greatly appreciate your prayers most of all on this! I have never raised support before or been on a mission trip so in addition to being excited, I am also nervous and really having to trust in the Lord to provide! I am so thankful for all of you and your prayers! The Lord is already showing me things and I know He will continue to!

In order to make all this possible, I need to develop a team of ministry partners. Please pray for me as I am sending out letters and raising the necessary funds for room and board, transportation, and training materials. If you can help in any way, that would be greatly appreciated. Whatever the Lord leads you to is the right thing, but most of all just be praying, please!

Thank you so much! I'll keep you updated on how the Lord's working it all out and where I am in the process!
