Gonna back track a bit here. I wantd to say a little more about training camp. After break thru conference, training camp came into full swing and the first night was spent at Unicoi Park
That’s where we stayed. Those little box/cubby hole looking things lol. It was really great actually. A message was brought around a camp fire that night and fellowship was had by the racers. It was a good time to get to meet them and hear how they were feeling about the coming 11 months on the feild as well as fellowship with them. The next day we did a cross walk. We were to right down on a log given to us, something we needed to give surrender. We trudged down this long hike with this log. Through ups and downs, high places, places, rough terrain and smooth. The end brought me to a cross wher I layed my log down at. That was it. I layed it down at the cross.
Training camp was a major turning point for me. God tested me in my need to be perfect. The way I carry everything on my shoulders. He made me give that up. One example, he put me in charge of the food for training camp. One thing about me is I have this fear of being in the kitchen! I don’t see myself as a good cook. To the point that it stresses me out and I feel so incredibly fearful that I will completley and utterly mess everything up. This small fear in the kitchen seems just that….small. But really that’s life for me. Alot of weight on my shoulders. alot of fear or failure, it’s all on me to make things right. So anyway, I was put in charge of food and all that had to crumble down. I put together the menues for camp and on Carribean day I was actually put in the kitchen…ah! But of course God in His faithfullness eased my emotions and turned it in to a success.
Chicken for 60 people! I cooked that!
Authentic “Rice and Peas” thanks to the cooks! Caitlin serving it out!
Plantains were a hit!
Overall it was a success. Training camp was truly good for the particpants as well as its workers! God is good 🙂
