Interning and trusting the process 2/1/2016


Its been one month since I started my internship with western wisconsin and I love it! I love the job, I love the people who I work with and I love how it makes me more independent in my work.

This month I have started on getting all the summer teaching materials ready for the teens who will be going out to teach clubs this year. 
That task will be the longest one. There is a lot of re-writing introductions, puppet skits, and revamping the schedule of the club activities. Its going to be long but worth it.
This weekend is a winter retreat for the teens who will be returning this summer and for those who are interested to come. Its a great opportunity to see old friends and for the new teens to meet some of the staff, the other summer missionaries, and to see the camp where the training takes place. Me and my area director are leading worship and all the music at the retreat. In preparation for that I made a lot of power points, practicing songs, and getting some short devotions ready. Along with that I recently found out that I will be a cabin counselor!
It may not sound like much, but just being involved in a ministry for so long doing the same things every year its just different taking on new roles. This year I am a staff member and team leader instead of a camper. However, I am looking forward to it,
Here's to one month!  For January's support totals, I don't know yet. I'm just waiting on my support statement to come.
