Just a quick update.
Robby, one of the college bound staff has recently hurt his elbow. Doctors said it was a deeply pulled muscle. He seems to be doing alright, but he is in a good amount of pain, and with this kind of injury, it could take longer to heal then a broken bone. He has also hurt his shoulder a couple of times. Please pray that Robby wouldn't continue to get hurt and that God would have his hand upon him and keep him safe. He has 8 more weeks at camp.
One of my girls in my cabin last night hit her head on the beam, and since it was a head injury they brought her to the hospital just in case. The biggest thing was that her head hurt, she was dizzy and was seeing double. I will find out more this morning. Please pray that it wasn't anything too serious and that God will help her heal quickly. She will be here 3 more weeks after CYIA is over.
TODAY was are going out for OPEN AIR. We have not yet been assigned to where we will be, but maybe times my group has been brought to Lewiston. Please pray that we, students and staff, could affectively minister the gospel to the children, teens and adults that we see.

Beginning of CYIA
Today is Friday and we have been participating in CYIA for two days. I'm going to go back and talk a little about the first couple of days that college bound was here to clean camp.
All of us arrived on Sunday night to be ready to start bright and early Monday morning. We cleaned many building, cabins and areas around camp. We have 15 college bounds students. Most of us will be at camp all summer, but some will be doing 5-Day clubs. Please pray for the following college bound students: Kristen, Susanna, Brianna, Rebecca, Megan, Danielle, Jonathan, Matt, Chris, Aaron, Robby, Tim, Tom, Josh, and Derek.
CYIA started Wednesday night, and classes started Thursday morning. We have about 130 students including college bound. It's so awesome how many teens are here at CYIA. I am a cabin supervisor for the cherokee cabin and I have 8 girls in my cabin. Our nightly devotions have been really awesome and encouraging. Today all the students had their wordless book test. Many of them passed for the first time, but there are some that will need to repeat the test. Please pray for those who need to repeat, as they were already nervous for the first time.

a weekend away
So it's Friday and I leave for camp in 2 days. I've been packing what seems to be my whole room, although i know too well that I can't take that much.
I have talked and heard from many college bound people including myself who are sick right now. Please pray for us, and any other CYIA student who may be coming to camp in this upcoming week who is sick. Going to camp and being sick isn't fun.
I will probably update Monday night after our first day of cleaning and getting to know the college bound staff. Many of us have done college bound before, but there are a lot of new girls on college bound this summer. Pray to prepare their hearts for a long, but great summer ahead with many blessings and trials.

It's almost time for camp
I want to thank you all for supporting me, financially and through prayer. Prayer warriors are ALWAYS needed!! I suppose i should start out by telling you what I will be doing this summer at camp. First of all, I will be at camp for 9 full weeks!! I will be arriving the night of Sunday, June 19. June 20, 21, and 22 will be devoted to cleaning up the campground and preparing for CYIA (Christian Youth In Action training school). Teens start coming for CYIA wednesday night (the 22) and everything fully starts the 23rd. At CYIA will more then likely be a cabin supervisor of, at the most, 9 girls. I am also a supervisor in the 14-year old program which is where they hand out wonder devotional books instead of going the 5 day club. CYIA will last until July 1st.
After CYIA I will have 7 full weeks of camp where i will more then likely be a senior counselor all 7 weeks. There may be a week where i could have a different job such as working in the kitchen, checking extra duties, getting/sorting the mail, working the trading post/camp store and many other things. We'll have to wait and see. I'm excited to see what God has in store for me this summer.
