Young Life has been a part of my life since I started high school. I attended club and went to Sharp Top on weekend camps. Two summers ago I went to Crooked Creek Ranch, a summer camp for Young Life in the gorgeous Colorado mountains. It's a life changing event, you go for ten days. We took a charter bus and drove from Gainesville, Ga to Buena Vista, Co. It was a thirty six hour trip and we made stops along the way. I thought that it would be absolutely miserable, when honestly it turned out to be a part of the trip that I would never forget. This past summer, I was on Summer Staff at Frontier Ranch, another summer Young Life camp. I served in the snack bar. It was a very humbling experience and something that taught me more about myself and my relationship with God then I would have ever been able to learn on my own. I had no form of technology besides my camera for a month. I was forced to focus on God and serving others. Being surround with such beautiful nature made me realize just how big our God actually is.
This past fall semester I went through new leader training to become a Young Life leader. I was recently placed at Gainesville High School with an awesome team that I am beyond excited to be a part of. The kids are great and I can't wait to see what God has in store for this next semester. I am lucky enough to be going to Liberia, Africa this summer on a Young Life Expedition trip. (http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Young-Life-Africa-Expeditions/332431002195) This is something that I have always dreamed of doing. It is quite expensive so I will be sending out support letters as well as raising money on my own. Please pray for me and the time leading up to my trip as well as the other leaders that I will be going with and the kids that God will reach through us, his willing servants.

A News Years resolution of mine is to blog as much as possible. We were hit with a snow storm and it has delayed a few things, blogging one of those. However, I hope to blog at least once a week. If not more. Hope everyone had a great holiday!

Have I mentioned that I adore fall? The color of the trees for some reason remind me of people. The different colors leaves representing a different personality in each one of us. How we are all completely different, but then again so much alike. Enjoy!
