Gardom Lake Bible Camp Here We Come


Well, we never seem to sit still for very long and we are nearing our latest move. Mike applied a little while ago to be a director of a new program starting @ Gardom Lake Bible Camp for this summers. He was accepted and ever since we have been trying to figure everything out for our family to move in just over four weeks for four months.

Mike spoke @ Gardom Lake two years ago and we @ least know where we are going but right now there is little that we do know. The camp is near to Salmon Arm and Ryan and Joanna, my cousins, work and live there. Mike will be working as the director of the encounter program for the entire summer. That includes some physical labor and all the prep that goes into a new program. I, for what I know for now, will be taking care of Ryan and Joanna's kid's. It will look different during the school year and during the summer, but I will be watching them.

Somethings we don't know are; Were we will be living for the second two months. How the job pays exactly. How we will be feeding ourselves the first two months.

All of these things will make for an interesting summer. I'm writing this letter for a few reasons. I really just love to share what new things are happening in our lives with all our family and friends and well, we need a lot of prayer.

Some prayer requests. Ben is growing strong, healthy and fast, meaning that he grows out of clothes sooooo fast still and we need to clothe him through out the summer. Prayer for our financial situation, we really don't have much money @ all right now and getting almost everything for the entire summer before we go will be hard on our wallets maybe even impossible. Maybe prayer that we will be more dependant on God to provide for us. That prayer can be so scary sometimes. This move will be a big change for us and we need prayer for Mike and I do understand each other through all these changes and that we will do the best for Ben in all our changes. Also one more financial need is that school is getting hard on our family and that this summer job of Mike's and a student loan will get us through another year of school and that it will not be a burden during the summer and we can live in the moment of being @ camp. Pray that for us and my parents that this will be a nice refresher and we will all learn to love each other more from our time apart because we will be moving back to my parents in the fall. Also that we get rest during this busy summer. Also and finally that we will keep in good health.

Thank you so much for your love, prayers and support. You will never know how much you truly mean to both Mike and I. (Sorry the picture is so old, as a photographer I never seem to take pictures of my family all together.) The day we will be moving is April 26th.
