I arrived at 130am to the Burlington airport on Thursday after a 2 hour delay in Newark. My buddy and fellow teamleader Greg from GMS 08 picked me up. What a stud! He is also going to be my roommate for the summer.
We have spent these few days before the teams arrive (They arrive tomorrow afternoon) getting to know each other, team leaders and staff. All 7, 3 girls and 4 guys, of us team leaders have really bonded and I am really excited for what God is going to be doing this summer. We already joke it up together and I am confident they will become people whom I can deeply trust and encourage. There is a sweet mixture of joking around and spurring one another on.
One major thing which God has put on all of our hearts is to reach out to the homeless community here and bringing our teams alongside with us in reaching out to them. Which is HUGE and an answer to prayer.
My team consists of 5 guys
Ray, Andres, Johnathon, Phil, and Bart.
They range in places in life from just finishing their freshman year to being recently graduated, aka older than me. I am excited and fearful at the same time. God has given me many ideas for where to take them but I really wont know until it is game time. My prayer is that I will be walking closely with Jesus and getting my guidance from Him and having my actions flow from my closeness with Christ. Pulling a Micah 6:8 deally.
Work
Went down there today to say hi to my manager. So excited to be back. She already has me scheduled for 17 hours next week which is clutch! Already pickin up where I left off with some of the guys who worked there 2 years ago.
Prayer
- Unity to quickly build in team
- That I would welcome and love them well from the start always looking 1st to their interests
- That they would have a teachable spirit and a desire to know the Lord more.
