Roe Updates

Ever since my last post about camp, it has been my life :0) We've been cutting twine, material, painting, pasting, coming up with games/riddles, making emblems, blindfolds, wood burning team staffs, planning, praying, practicing, etc. I've been purchasing everything from posterboard and muslin fabric to flagging tape and burlap bags.

We've also had some really late nights this week. Tuesday night we had the team over working on all this stuff, and despite us starting at 5:30, we were still going strong with lots to do at 11:30. TOO late for my taste. Last night, I got home from camp worship rehearsal about 9:30 and saw Ian & Jordan all the way down at the end of our street with twine stretch down the length of it. We found out we are oh, about 4,000 feet short what we needed. (How was I supposed to know that 2-ply 8,500 feet meant it was only 4,250 of usable twine) So, instead of the 17,000 feet we thought we were getting, it ended up being 8,500. And now I need 4,000 more - so, trying to find that. Stayed up WAY to late this morning, and then J & Ian woke up at 6:00am to finish wrapping said twine....all that to say, I am looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow. We certainly need it to get rested up befor Sunday!

This is an amazing time, though and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I am so excited this year- not about games and activities, although I know those will be awesome, but about the breakthrough that will happen in these students lives. I am more sure of it and passionate about it than I've ever been.

Please be praying for us next week. I would LOVE to have an amazing blanket of prayer over us, which I know we will!
