Staff Discipler week

The lack of posts this week is a testament to how busy staff disciple week is at training camp. We go all day and night with activities, quiet times, talks, worship and more. We are training our team for the summer and to lead their discipleship groups. It has been a week full of ups, downs, growth and stretching. We have a great team and we can't wait for the students to arrive this weekend.

Madison

Rainer and I went to Madison this week to pick up the other member of our senior staff, Christina (I'll post a picture of us with her later). She goes to school in Seattle and is doing medical for our team this summer. She's awesome.
Camp has been growing as various people and groups arrive daily. We have been meeting, training and praying for our team and our staff disciplers! We are headed to Chicago to pick them up today!

Lately...

We are into assistant's week at training camp. All the assistants for the teams and the Nehemiah team (a student Alumni team where the trip is longer, they go to Israel and it has more in-depth teaching) came in this past Saturday. I've been mowing more grass and went on a huge food shopping trip to Madison and Rainer has been working with Hank (Ireland team leader) assisting with building & construction projects. Sunday we started meetings with all the senior staff and task specific training (food, finance & medical).

We can see a wind farm from camp. At night they have blinking red lights that look like spaceships landing!

 Food shopping trip to Madison... this was only 1/3 of it!
Six different stores, 9 hours and this is only for about a
week of training camp and some food for teams overseas.
