Training camp is sneaking up!  I still have some things to purchase and need to do some more work with my pack to get ready for that 2.2 mile hike in 38 minutes.  

What I’m looking forward to:

  • Meeting my squadmates/Making some new friendships
  • Seeing us all in our squad shirts/colors
  • Being challenged
  • Learning more about myself and the Lord
  • Storytelling workshop (learning more about photography and videography)
  • SQUAD WARS.  We’ve got this Sojourners!!!

Things I’m nervous about:

  • Riding a plane for the first time by myself and navigating the airport…and catching my 6am flight!
  • Meeting my squadmates (Hey, I’m an introvert, what can I say?)
  • Packing…have I mentioned I haven’t bought everything yet and I have no idea how I’m going to fit everything in my pack….I’ve got some busy days ahead.
  • Bathroom and showering situations and other scenarios they may put us through.  But, it will be a good reality check. 
  • The fact that after training camp is over—we leave in 2.5 months!  WOW!!
  • Being away from work for 2 weeks…I’ve done a week, but two is crazy to think about.  
  • Telling the Growers (my clients) upon return about my resignation in December.

I appreciate everyone who is praying for me, my team, and the world we are going to impact.  Please also be praying for my family, relationships, and my work environment with all the major changes coming soon.
