Week 1: Florida Blvd. Baptist Church, Baton Rouge, Louisiana

hey all!!!

tomorrow's the day.. (well technically it's today...but whatever...) I am so excited for camp to start!!!

I can't wait for the kids to walk through the door ready for a week of music and acting... all in the love and adoration of Christ.. :-)

The staff and I went to the church service at FBBC... it was great worship and wonderful preaching by the pastor..
The pastor spoke on being prepared and ready to move when God calls.. even when the calling is not immediate... he used the passage in Joshua.. where the Israelites are guided through the Jordan river using the Ark of the Covenant.

After the service, we unloaded the trailer and started our tasks of setting up to get ready for the camp day... I helped assemble our (sometimes frustrating) stage...but it all came together well with the help of my other team members...

We then had lunch and finished our tasks...dinner followed...

I traveled to Wal-mart with Neesa and helped with the shopping....when we got back the rest of the staff was just finishing up some last minute touches on the choreography...

Then Phillip and Neesa did a sound check for worship tomorrow...and most of the staff returned to our housing (more about that later... :-).....) except for me, Christina, Phillip, Neesa and a lovely rookie staffer named Madison, who was running the Powerpoint.... we decided to take a trip to the lovely Sonic up the road....well it turns out they closed at 10... but they served us anyway because Phillip and Neesa said that it was only 3 minutes til.... so we got our slushies and drove back to the house.... :-) where the entire rest of the staff was slightly jealous...haha.. but they got over it...

well the real stuff begins tomorrow... i'll probably tell you about the first day... and then the housing...cause it is pretty AWESOME!!

okay...well i'm heading to bed... early morning...

I shall write more soon!!
In Christ,
Katie
