Prayer Request and Vision from God

Hello Friends,

So, I am still working on getting my first update letter in the mail. The good news is that the letter is written, it just needs tweaking and proofing. I am hoping the get that all finished and out this week. Adjusting back into life has taken a little longer than I thought it would. Mostly because I haven't stopped going.

I do have a prayer request. I am making decisions on what I ministries and activities I need to step out of and say no to. It's a hard thing because I don't want to, but I know I must. I met someone last night that the Lord gave a vision to for me (seriously just met her, she didn't know anything about me). Basically what I clearly heard is that I have all these options of things to do, and some of them are good, but the Lord has a path chosen for me and I need to be in prayer and follow that path and pass up the other things. So, please pray that I would be obedient and trust in what the Lord has so clearly spoken to me.

Sooo, how about another Training Camp story. One of the other great things that I learned about Training Camp is that everything that they do has a purpose. They wake the students at 5:30am every morning. The students then have 5 minutes to get up, dressed, and have all of their blue packs packed. This is to prepare them for overseas in case they have a situation where they need to leave in a very short amount of time. Another thing is that the student must always travel in groups of 3's (this even includes trips to the porto's in the middle of the night). This is also a requirement overseas as well. In case something happens to one of them, one person can go get help, and another can stay with the injured party. Other things they do: memorize the 4 Spiritual laws book, carry their passports on them at all times (except in the shower), always carry their day packs (with a roll of TP), when in the large group they walk in two lines, the students don't shower for the first few days of camp (it helps bring everyone to the same level), spend an hour of quiet time with the Lord, and so much more. I learned so much just by watching.

Below is a picture of one of the teams jogging in their 2 lines. If you were there you would hear any nearby staff member encouraging them,"Good Hustle!"
