It’s been awhile. Understatement. The last three months have been crazy. Beautiful, glorious, but crazy, nonetheless. I will try to catch you up…
May:
I went to a conference in Toronto where I was able to hear Heidi Baker and Mike Bickle, worship with crazier people than me, and just be poured into instead of doing the pouring. (The photo below is from one of the worship nights at the conference).
Then, I hightailed it down to Gainesville, GA, where I apartment shopped. Caroline and I found one we love, and put our deposit down even though the moving date was in July. (We’re crazies, I know).
Later that week was Training Camp for the June and July WR Squads. It was phenomenal. We had about 150 new Racers there, and they went for it. Hardcore. We had some amazing worship nights full of freedom and breakthrough. It’s such fun to watch as people walk into new places with the Lord. Myself included, it was a great week for me to walk into places of release. (Blog to come).
June:
My dear friend, Susan, from childhood on through, got married in Kentucky. It was such a privilege to be a part of her week that week. (The photo at the right is from her wedding).
Then, I went to NYC with the lovely Erin Winget to Launch the June Squad’s leaders. We did some training for a few days before they left and just got to hang out and pour into them.
Later that month we actually decided to move up the moving date. So one day at lunch in Michigan, we were sitting at a table on the river and decided we should actually move the next day instead of the next week. As you can assume, the rest of the next week was mass chaos. I think we get bored if our lives aren’t crazy.
After that, I got on a plane to Romania where I got to visit my October Squad that I led. That was a shining beacon of light in all the madness. It was such a huge honor to see the fruit of what Sean and I worked so hard at. The victory and change and freedom that our beloved squad is walking in now just took my breath away. There were lots of joyous tears, to say the least. (The photo is of me and some of my girls from the L Squad, oh how I love them!)
July:
I went to Myrtle Beach with my family for a weekend to be at my cousin’s wedding. It was such fun, and a nice breath of fresh salt air! The wedding was an intimate family gathering, and was just relaxing and low-key. (The photo is of me and my brother and his fiance, and my cousin that got married).
Then I actually drove myself down to Georgia and made my apartment feel a little more like a home. I spent a week there and got to settle into the office with all the staff before going to Murray, Kentucky to help photograph a wedding with Susan (the friend who got married earlier in this blog).
Now, I sit at my desk once again, updating you in the calm before the storm. Life right now is cyclical, in a very chaotic, but fun way. Training Camp for the September and October Squads start this weekend… and we are anticipating more and more of the wind and fire of the Spirit to blow through!
And from here:
Prayers please! I covet all of them that you have to spare. I adore my life and the things I get to do. But I run out of steam. So, if you’ve got a few minutes this week, I’d love if you prayed for fresh wind, for energy, for joy, and for tons more of His love to fill me up so I can keep giving it away! Thank you again and again!
