Gideon

Are you ready for all of this? It is going to be a full update! Over the 17th through the 19th, we chaperoned an outdoor education trip to Fort Wilderness with Harvest. (That is the camp that my parents worked at for so many years) We studied all sorts of bacteria and cellular organisms. It was quite fascinating.

Since we were so close to Camp Forest Springs, we dropped off a load of our things at our good friend, Herbie’s house.

Memorial weekend was spent fending off the bloodthirsty black flies in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. It was a great time of paddling and hiking through the beautiful creation.

Tomorrow is only a half day of school and it is the last one of this year! We have had a splendid time here and have learned a tremendous amount. I was able to put together a DVD for the kids at school to help them remember what Harvest was all about and what an awesome year we had together. God has really used this time to prepare us for working with kids. We were forced to put together lesson plans and be able to teach meaningful things to the kids.

Somewhere around 1:00pm tomorrow, we will load into the cars and make our way to Camp. It is exciting to be able to return but I am also aware of the amount of work we will have. Please pray that God will make Himself to be our true sustaining power. We don’t want to do this on our own strength because we are weak. I want God to empower us to do His work in the same way he worked in Gideon.
