Arkansas has a piece of my heart.

This last week I had the joy of being all the wayyyy in Arkansas for an AWANA Camp.  Geno and I got to spend time training the high school students for their ministry day on Wednesday.  Here is my week in pictures  :)

On our way to Little Rock!

In the Dallas - Love Field Airport.  I was tempted to buy a pair!

Upon arriving in Little Rock, we met up with Henri, the AWANA Camp Commander.  He and his wife, Margy, were so hospitable.  They told us that there was this sweet little Old Mill down the road from their house.  Apparently, it appeared in the opening credits of Gone With the Wind.

I spent time admiring the beautiful Southern Scenery.

Once we arrived at camp and got settled in, Geno and I decided to explore the camp and go for a hike.  This is what was at the top.

At the first camp chapel, the pastor spoke on Acts 1:8, which just so happens to be YMI's mission verse!  (Thank you, God!)

In Arkansas, when it rains, it POURS.  This picture was taken during one of the storms that came through.  You can't really tell, but all the kids were being quarantined in the mess hall because it was raining so hard.  If we had sent them outside, it would have taken just a few seconds for them to be dripping wet!

This is the list of campers and counselors who participated in the ministry day on Wednesday!

Geno and I tried our hand at the high ropes course and zip line.

I've never seen a moth this gorgeous!

Training the high school students and speaking to them about missions and worldview.

Goodbye Arkansas.

Thanks for working with me as I figure out how to balance blogging with ministry.  I thought for sure that Mondays were going to work, but it's looking like it may just be "whenever I can" blogging.

Praises:
1. A GREAT trip to Arkansas.
2. A busy next couple months of ministry.
3. Wedding plans are going well!

Prayers:
1. Health, health, health!
2. Pray that we have at least 10 kids sign up for our Kansas City Training Camp in August.
3. Please continue to pray that Nathan and my funding will continue to increase.
