Here we go again - but for the last time

Wow. That's all I can say. Today is the beginning of our last week of camp! Next week we have a family camp but that doesn't really count. I'm one of the eight s counselors for this last week for grades 8-10th. Because of the age group there is a potential for this to be a very interesting week. Thankfully God has helped turn around my attitude so that I'm fairly excited about counseling again.

After my all-nighter I knew I needed sleep but I didn't know when I was going to go to bed. Well, my body took care of that for me. I laid down on a couch that next night at about 8 during a conversation and promptly fell asleep. Someone was kind enough to wake me at 10:30 to go to my cabin :) Where I slept another nine hours. So, for anyone worried about my sleep (like my parents and a selected other few) I'm doing pretty decently even with the all nighter and God really used that night to change my attitude and make me excited about this last week of camp.

Prayer Requests (I would definitely appreciate it):
- Wisdom in leading these g i r l s
- That my focus would be on my g i r l s and not on spending time with the staff - especially those leaving Saturday or Sunday
- Staff health and attitude - Many of us are sick, injured or just getting to late summer exhaustion and just struggling with the idea of giving 24/7 again

I'm so thankful to all of you who have prayed, have financially supported me, have written to me, who have emailed me and who have been reading this blog. Thank you so much for caring about my life and for giving to it. I'm excited to announce that my financial support is now not only above my minimum but is also above the staff goal! Praise be to God for providing.

I'm still up here for two more weeks even though camp's winding down - so please still write me letters! :) - [I havn't gotten many recently]

Much love to you, your sister in Christ,
Courtney Lynn
