WOW! What an incredible summer! We had such an amazing time with so many wonderful people! We spent a lot of time in Truck Norris, and covered a good portion of Texas and Oklahoma, and all the while stayed healthy and happy! Michelle had so many hats to wear this summer...mom, merch sales, bass player, back-up singer, road manager, video blog maker and wife, and she ROCKED them all! I am so honored that she chose me! Gabi was especially wonderful! It is so much fun to see her grow up and discovering God's plan for her life. She amazes me every day! Isaac did an killer job on the drums, too! It was such a great team that God put together for this summer camp season!
We spent the first week and last week of the summer at a place called Camp Egan. What a wonderful place! Who knew there were such beautiful places in Oklahoma! Josh Pulver and the staff at Camp Egan were so welcoming and friendly, they made us feel right at home! If you ever get a chance to go to Talequah, Oklahoma, look them up! www.okumcministries.org/Camps facebook.com/campegan
The first two weeks of July were spent with the wonderful people of Camp Zephyr. Shaune Martinez and Tyler Grantham were such wonderful hosts and took great care of us! Durring that time we did 3 pre-teen camps with almost 500 kids each! www.campzephyr.org www.facebook.com/campzephyr We have loved going to that camp for many years, and this year did not disappoint! We were to meet and work with some wonderful people. Audie Lawley, and Bryon Compton, both from the Corpus Christi area, were such great leaders and have become such wonderful friends! We hope to work with them again soon! We also had the privilege to work with Kenny Conley from Gateway Community Church in Austin, Tx. He was such a great communicator and teacher for the kids. He really made God's Word come to life for them, and even us! Please check out his blog www.childrensministryonline.com He has some great ideas and wonderful thoughts on kids ministry and church ministry in general.
It is so amazing to me how God brings so many people together from so many different places and ministries that have not worked together before and does such powerful things! We can get so wrapped up in planning and preparing that we miss what God has in store for us. When we get out of the way and seek God's plan and put our own expectations to the side, God moves in ways we never imagined.
I can hear God smiling and saying..."I just love it when a plan comes together!"
