So after I sent in that last post, I was fishing for something inspirational to read. One of the blogs I stalk has a bunch of that on it, and this quote which was posted jumped out at me, like the perfect solution to my problem. (Jesus:) There are many ways that I work in [...]
B.L.A.S.T. is a yearly camp that The Family International in Mexico organizes for its members ages 14 through18. It is one of the big highlights of the year, so we’re all looking forward to October rolling around… yes, I include myself because I want to go as staff! That means that we’re hoping to send [...]
