English Camp - Day 2 Update - David
Hello family and friends! This has been an incredible trip so far, and I am already super excited about the coming 11 days. Today was the second day of English camp, and I think we were all pretty encouraged by the progress we had made from an already great first day. While we are still getting to know these teens, I feel like I was able to really start connecting with some of them today. For me, friendly relationships with individual teens are still in their beginning stages. However, it was evident across the board today that the teens coming to camp really want to hang out and be around us. They aren’t as shy and are much more willing to talk than yesterday. This is really encouraging because it means we have a powerful platform to be examples and share the Gospel.
On a separate note, it’s also been great to see how our team has really gelled even within the last couple days. Spending so much time serving with quality Christian friends is strengthening to my own faith. Additionally, it means that serving is simply a blast—while exhausting, it’s just plain fun. I also feel like I am deepening friendships I will have for a very long time!
Thank you all for your continued prayer support. It’s extremely encouraging to know that we are being lifted up back home!
David
