He rode a blazing saddle...

I talked to my dear mother on the phone this afternoon and confessed to her that I wasn't really all that excited about camp. This week is really stressful so I would rather sleep than make a major move, I am not excited about being cut off from all English speakers for 7 weeks, even if it will be good for me, and I'm not sure how I will do being around kids all the time.
So we prayed together that God would get me excited about camp. Tonight as I was looking up contact info, I found a video that got me a lot more excited than I have been! It looks like fun, and they have a solid spiritual focus. Furthermore, they spend all of their time trying to act like they come from the rolling plains of the United States. How often do you find French people who want to be like me? It's going to be a great summer!

It looks like lots of fun! I know it's probably not in your comfort zone, but as stressful as things are now, I KNOW it will be worth it in the end!

Hang in there, John! Relax, trust, and be stretched. :D
