Best cabin leader ever? I think Yes!

     Our next stop took us to a little town called Mt. Rainier. We were literally two blocks away form the Washington D.C. line. Our task for the week was to help lead Backyard Bible Club and VBS at the church. I absolutely fell in love with this church and the people in it. They are a multi-cultural church, and their doors are open to any person forn every background. They had a mission house right beside the church that they had been fixing up so that they could house missionaries and other such guests. We were the first missionaries to stay there, and we absolutely loved staying there. It was an older house that needed a few fix ups, but taking cold showers was worth it!
     When we first arrived , we were exploring the house and organizing random things. When we opened the fridge, guess what we found? A package of raw pigs feet! We said to each other, "Is this a joke or something? Are we supposed to cook these for dinner?" Thankfully, the next morning we went shopping for groceries. The pig's feet was not a prank, just an odd thing that someone had forgotten to take out of the fridge.
     We all had such an incredible time at Backyard Bible and VBS. We grew so close to the people there, and they all welcomed us and treated us like we were family. Our theme for VBS was Big Apple Adventure! The kids learned about faith, love, and trust and how they connect those things in their every day life. They also learned about inner-city missionaries and the ministries they help with. Mt. Rainier was a very difficult good-bye.
     Camp Counselor day two: not too shabby!! Our cabin won cleanest cabin award. I have to brag on my girls. When we got back to our cabin after a very long day, the girls took showers and got ready for bed. I told them that I was going to take a shower and that they would have some free time for a little while before lights out. While I was in the shower, I heard them scrambling around making lots of noise. I was a bit concerned at this point. When I opened the door, every girl was in her bed, they were quiet, and the lights were out! I was so proud of them! I said, "You guys are awesome!" Then they said, "We know!" I love my girls.
     I have to share another sweet moment. I have a girl in my cabin that had a bike wreck and scraped her leg up pretty badly. Another girl in the cabin said, "I'll pray for your boo-boo." That just made my day! I hope it made yours too.
