June 1

Since Monday was Memorial Day we had the day off so we all loaded up along with Chris' family and went up towards the mountains. We stopped along the way at a park and had a picnic, played some games, and spent time resting. In the afternoon, when our team left (the four of us) we went up into the mountains. God is absolutely wonderful. I am in awe of His creation every single day. As Charles said today, "Going into the mountains was another team building day". We navigated our way to the top of the mountains. Traveling on Trail Ridge Road up to the highest road traveled in the US. (I think that is the fact don't quote me though). There was snow piled high on the side of the road and once we started on our way back down we started to see elk. There was one point where they were on the side of the road right next to our car. When we got into town we were able to pull over on the side of the road where we could get out and get about 15 ft away from them. Our day had been wonderful and we had made it back to Estes Park just in time to eat dinner. After dinner we headed back home through the mountains. There was a part where the traffic had come to a complete stop and there were people walking around so 3 of us got out and started to walk to see if we could see what the problem was and we walked for a little while til we heard there was a wreck. We ended up waiting for an hour and a half for traffic to clear up and to be able to head home. The only thing we were able to see was one ambulance that drove away and a car that was on a tow truck that was totaled. The front end of the car was torn up really bad. We said a prayer for them hoping whoever was in the car was not hurt too badly and thankful they didn't roll down the side of the cliff. After our adventure filled day we finally made it home to rest.

Today we started planning for our summer and the schedule of Kids Camp that starts tomorrow! We made it up to the mission about noon and did some brain storming on the theme of survival. For the month of June we are going to come up with lessons, crafts, games, bible verses, and other activities that have to do with survival. After we planned for this week. We went out into the neighborhood and started canvasing the trailer park with flyers about the summers kids camp. As we started walking through the streets children started joining us to help us figure out which houses had kids in them and where to go. We ended up having so much help that we split into two different groups. Today seemed to be a very productive day and I can't wait to see what God has in store for us tomorrow.

My blessing of the day: I went to Best Buy because my computer battery is going bad and the cord is frayed so it will no longer charge or hold a charge so I went to purchase a new charger. I get to the store and the guy finds a charger for me but then checked to see if I still had warranty on my computer...and I DID! so now I will be able to get both of the items replaced for free bc my warranty is until August of this year. I was excited to hear this. It really was a blessing.

Prayer Request:
Kids Club -pray for lots of children
Wisdom-in planning for the future days to come
Words-that they will be His words that I am the mouth He uses
