2 Things

Just wanted to let you know about 2 quick things:

1. I have an awesome praise report about my back...for about 2 weeks it was hurting so bad that i was barely able to function. Even last Saturday as i was leading my youthstreet team i had to bring a little chair to sit in because i couldn't be upright for more than a few minutes at a time. Sunday it was a bit better and when i woke up Monday morning....it was pretty much fine! i can still feel something isn't quite right in there but i can move and function without pain and am relatively pain free! i am still going to the doctor and have an MRI scheduled in about 10 days, but i am definitely way better. it's crazy how much it coincided with the prayers of the people here at the base as well as with all of you back home. I really believe God was in this. He has really used this whole thing in my life and my faith has grown because of it.

2. I am also leaving on sunday morning for a week long camp with 11 youthstreet kids. Reef to Outback is running this camp and we are calling it "Deeper" because the whole point of the camp is to bring these kids to a "deeper" level of who God is and their relationship with Him. I am one of four staff who will be leading this camp and I will be teaching and running small groups and discussions. some of the kids are Christians and then we have a couple kids who have no idea who God is...so it's a great opportunity to be able to speak into these kids lives and build relationships as well as really being able to teach about God and how he loves them and has a plan for their lives. should be a good time. I will fill all of you in on what happens when we get back.

Specific prayer request:

That God really move in these kids lives at camp and they are forever changed. Pray that God speaks through us and uses in such a way that these kids get a glimpse of who God is and who each one of them are in God's eyes. Pray that God pierces their soul with truth.

Talk to ya soon!
