Its been difficult to put training camp into words. I went thinking it was going to be easy. No showering? I'm cool with it. I love camping, new cultures, and new experiences. Little did I know what the week was really about…
The first few days we focused on soul care, drawing near to our spiritual intimacy in Christ. With that came all the problems I never dealt with. I had a hard time being vulnerable, putting my guard down and letting people in. I’m glad I obeyed what God had because Q squad became a family in a week. The activities, sharing, learning process was so powerful. Testimonies were told, people cried, got frustrated, got confused. Whoever it was, people were there for you and to help push you through. Living in community is tough, never having time alone or doing what you want. Yet I feel as I learned and grew from it so much. Ask any Q squad member how I was the first day and how I left camp.
God chose all 200 young adults for a reason to love on the world this July. You don’t have to be somebody or have some amazing skills. God wants to use each person in an incredible way you thought would be impossible. We all were pushed out of our comfort zone and it helped. Being pushed to radically depend on God is what we needed.
Pray with me that each person fulfills Luke 10. Some may not have time to put forward, however you can help by praying and financially giving. The World Race is done by His strength and power; I am too weak without him to do this. Everyone has a different story, yet it comes down to one answer. Jesus.
I am part of the team called HOLLA-lujah. Probably the funniest group of seven ever. Chill time means frisbee time. Each of us makes the team. Losing one would change everything, so please pray with us and help us to all become fully funded!
One month till we leave, cant wait to share what God does around the world.
The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us. – C. S. Lewis
