After 11 long days, I realized just how quickly Training Camp flew by. It started out with me coming a day early for a storytelling workshop and not having a clue what I was stepping in to. There were only two other people from my squad that came for the workshop, so this forced me to make friends with complete strangers which was totally awesome! The next day the rest of my squad showed up and I made several great friends and we grew in our relationships to God together as a family. We battled adversity from several uncomfortable scenarios ranging from sweating profusely in the hot and humid Georgia air, to freezing in a makeshift airport scenario. I also believe there were just as many tears as there was sweat! We lost in certain ways and gained in others. Friends became brothers and sisters and though we had to accept losing some that went back home, they are forever in our hearts and always considered family. As the days kept skipping by, I kept finding myself not ready to leave camp and all these people I grew close to so fast. Eventually the time did come to leave and go back home, so we said our sad, but hopeful goodbyes as we prepare for the next chapter. Overall, this has been the greatest 11 days of my life to this point and I can’t wait to see how God will provide even better days when me and my squad meet back up again in just over a month to do this crazy journey of the World Race together! I love my squad and their hearts for God. Couldn’t ask for a better group to call a “Tribe”
