Canoe Trip

i just got back from our canoe trip. We went to a camp called camp pioneer were we met our leaders who were going to be our guides for our trip. Our canoe trip was three night and four days. The took our group and splited us into two (16) in each group. In those four days, were challenged with Waves, Pain, Stress. Over those days the asked us questions in the morning and talked about it in the evening. The first questioned they asked “ were do we see God beauty?”. I saw it in so many places. The first place ways at a mining place. Seeing all the old building be taken over by the forest and looking at the lake se-rounded by trees that were changing through the season. Some of the trip was hard for me because I have a really hard time loving my self. For me to be stuck with my self or being in silence was so hard. The second question was “Were do you see brokenes?”. we came to this mountain that we had to clime. It took us and hour to clime. I was so over weld by God beauty that how could I see God Brokeness in this. I sate down and Said out aloud alone with God. Let me HEAR your brokeness! As soon as i said that. looking over the valley i hear trees falling over making this hug crash! then I relized that the forest is slowly dyeing everyday. Tree wrought and die and the moss comes to grow and live on the death. Just like our sin, people let in live in them and don’t relized that they are slowly dyeing Intel one-day death comes and nocks you over were you can never get up again. The trip was hard but so Good. Coming back and seeing the other half of the family was so joyful, we shared stories, loughs and hugs. I am so glade that i am here and thank God for the people i’m with!.

So we are at our camp site and the place is just beautiful. Their is a lake that look like it is going on for ever! They have a play ground that is meant to for adults. Finally the guy and girls friendship has taken off. I didn't know this but this guy named Dan told me that it is a very Mennonite for the guys and girls to be separated. In my head I was like “Man that sucks, I am glade that i am not Meninight!”. So our leaders went though the rules and thing we need to know for this year. My leaders our Sandy, Steve, Me Me and Rafael. They are so funny and sweet. I can’t wait to have deep conversation with them this year. We also did team building games and played 2 hours of grounders (hello Awesome!!!) Ohh and the Food here I so GOOD, i am getting feed like a horse :). The days are long, a good long thow. This year is going to be a year of changed, learning and so many other thing that God is going to be doing in my life.

Winnipag!
