In the first few weeks of Kaleo we have selected churches to help out at. Being a die hard Qwanoes fanatic I choose to join the church that kind of spawned out of camp and began to work at Warmland. So my first youth group is starting up on wednesday and hearing of the reaction that all the kids in the youth had when they heard my name i'm kind of scared. when Stevie G said my name at the youth a couple of weeks ago when I was not there all the little grade 5 girls from Qwanoes remembered me and started to squeal i'm scared of the 5000 hugs i'm going to get in a few days.
Now that i'm done rambleing I can talk about how Kaleo has been in the last 2 weeks. For the ministry I'd had with the camp staff and other Kaleo students I have felt very well prepared coming off the best summer of my life. The sweetest thing I've seen in my ministry thus far was when we were on the Pacific Grace sailing the high seas and I saw the way that the full time staff ingaged with us and helped us grow in our faith on the boat.
I'm going to have to say that the best part of my ministry so far since Kaleo started was when I was in the dunk tank at the Fall kick off at Warmland. Sure getting wet in luke-warm water is awesome, but doing it with a Christ base is wicked!
Now for a bit of the negative, the only thing that i've had issues with in the last week or so was that I had to go home to have to help with a friend who was dealing with some sucidal issues. Although this was a big hit to me it was ok because through this God helped me grow and also God used me to help save this person.
Truely God is a great and loving God
