Further Developments and 75%

Hello Jonahites,

All is quiet on the Western Front here at the Big Fish. Cool things are beginning to happen for Summer and that is really cool. There is officially 75% of the QuadCore (Program Staff) here at Jonah and we are pumped to complete that number in the next week are so. We are all working hard to get camps planned and staff training ready to go and we are pumped to have the staff arrive and see campers have a blast at all of our camps, but we are also bummed that the other 25% is not here yet.

Be praying for our planning and leadership as we get closer to the beginning. We need to be Christ-centered to be good leaders so my biggest request is that we would be focused on Christ more than anything else. Also pray for the directors of each camp as they hammer out the details for their camps and that they would have Jesus-focused camps so that campers will hear about Jesus.

Well, tell people about Camp and staff (we still need dudes) because we want as many people to hear about Jesus as possible.

Have a good week and worship Jesus because He is cooler than you will ever be,

The Big Fish from the Sky

Let us commence to blogging.

There has been a little bit of a hiatus since we last conversed, but I am sure you will forgive and continue to read with vigor whatever is put up on the Blog that is Jonah’s.

Well, what has been happening at the Big Fish (this is what I started calling Jonah)?  Well, we had two retreats in the last two weekends. Hmm, that is nice. One of them was the First Christian group and the other was the infamous scrapbooking getaway, led by the world renowned Harmony. Yeah, that’s right, world renowned. Basically, we had a bunch of ladies here scrapbooking until all hours of the night, making great creations of past memories. If you haven’t gone to a scrapbooking getaway you should come to the next one. Unless you don’t like to scrapbook then maybe you shouldn’t. But anyway it was great. 

In other news, summer is quickly approaching and we are still looking for THREE guy counselors. If you know anyone that could work at camp or should work at camp you know the drill. Also, the QuadCore (program staff) starts arriving on Monday! As the program director, I can’t tell you how exciting this is. So be praying for the planning of staff stuff (by the QuadCore) and the completion of the staff for this summer.

Here is a little extra tidbit. I flew to NY last week and on my departing flight I saw some great views of Mt. Hood, Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Rainier, and our beloved Mt. Adams. After some good observation, I realized I was looking at the Trout Lake Valley and I am 98% sure I saw Jonah from the plane, so that is cool.

Enjoy the pic.
