The beginning hasn't even begun.

One of my amazing MCs from last year! :) 

It is that time in training when the MCs and the Directors join us in Colorado. They arrived on Wednesday evening. We ate a big dinner at Group's Headquarters. It is always an amazing experience. It is great to see last year's Directors and MCs, as well as getting to meet MCs and Directors for this upcoming summer.

This year two of last year's summer staff are now MCs, they were not able to be on staff and commit an entire summer. It is just great to be here and spend time with them again. So glad we could hang out with Austin and Jon!!

Since the leadership is here, it is time to really begin thinking about the summer! Life is starting to get real!! As one of my supervisors said yesterday, the beginning hasn't even started!! Sunday is send off. We will be leaving Loveland to head all across the country. Currently there are 23,000 participants that are going to a Group Mission Trip this summer! How amazing to be able to be working with such a large amazing organization.

As the week ends please just be praying for me and my fellow Group Mission Trip Summer Staff. Pray that we all want to be here and to work our hardest this summer. Pray that we may grow together and open up to each other. Pray we may be able to travel safely. Pray that we may show 23,000 people the heart of the Lord. Pray for our camps, the residents and the co-sponsors. Pray that we do our job with excellence. And most importantly, pray that God will touch our hearts this summer and change our lives.
