Home Sweet Home

Well after an even longer drive back (we had a few stops to make) I've made it back home to Florida, arriving around 4 in the morning. I was so wiped out from this last week's work (put in about 55 hours in 4 days) that I think most of us slept half of Saturday away. Even yesterday I was still feeling some of the effects of long travel. It's good to be back though and to know we got the job done. The Tabernacle really needed a lot of work done to it in repairs which is why we went up a week early but it was almost not enough time. We really pushed hard the final week, usually working from 6 am to 8 at night or dark. It rained so much and the ground was so wet that we had to build several water diversion systems which worked but really took a lot more time. It's supposed to be drier up there now and the rains are going to begin heading to Florida (which is good news! actually been raining this morning) which is another sign that Bootcamp is on its way! We have only a few short weeks until Early Bootcamp begins and then after that is Super/Preteen. I'm so excited for both and man this time of year goes by so fast as we're preparing. We're praising God though that we seem to be a bit ahead that we've not had to have so many Saturday workdays outside to get caught up. All the tents are still standing and the Obstacle Course is steadily making its way up and ready to go. I believe the only thing left on that is the Maze. Pretty much as soon as the summer begins I won't be on to blog much and then when my team gets in I'll be in full Bootcamp mode, living out on the property in a tent with my team. Thank you all so much for your prayers and support! I know the Lord is going to do a great work this summer and on all the teams. Please keep praying for the kids and leaders who are coming as well as all the staff here who are laboring to see this summer happen!

In Christ
