Today’s post is simple:  I LOVE CAMP! 

I love everything about the camp grounds and the program.  I love the memories that have been made there.  The friendships that I formed there.  The decisions I made that have shaped who I am today.

I love the anticipation that is being felt.  The excitement of another year starting in just a few days. I love watching you converse on Facebook, wondering who is going to be there.  I love that none of you have asked me, even though I have the list of all campers who will attend.

I love the staff that we have chosen and the campers who have decided to attend (even those I have not met yet).  I love that some of our staff will be taking a week of vacation from work with no pay.  I love that you as campers come to camp even when your friends think you are a dork.

I love that I get to share the job of director with my husband and that I get to minister with my friends.  I love the fact that my vacation time is not spent tanning myself or fighting crowds at the beach but instead it is running around a field in Beach Lake and being a role model for teens.

I love the fact that we have an excellent speaker and awesome worship team.  I love that God already has a plan for our week and that His plan is greater than mine.

I love that my house is a disaster, I have not had time to cook (so take out it is), I can’t remember when I last turned on the TV, all because I’ve been too busy with camp prep.

I love the fact that God has given me this opportunity to serve Him in the most wonderful place I can imagine.

I love Camp and in 3 short days I will be there!
