Team Retreat this Weekend

Man, how time flies! I can't believe that it will be only 2 weeks until we are flying to Estonia for English Camp.

This weekend is our team retreat, which is something that I have been looking forward to. Because we have been so geographically separated as a team (one team member in Australia, one in Mexico, one at Panama City Beach, and a couple (me included) traveling their tails off for work, it will be a great opportunity for us to all settle down from our crazy busy lives and bond, pray with one another, and dream about what God wants to do in Estonia through the trip. One cool thing is that we are doing our retreat via road trip to Panama City Beach since Clete our fearless leader is doing his BigStuf camps there. It's a little beach time, but it's still beach time :-).

Every trip that I've been on has been preceded by some sort of adversity... I think that just comes with the territory, and this one is no different. In fact, it's been really intense. I appreciate your prayers for me for wisdom and discernment in my life endeavors before and during the trip... and for protection. Most of all, I just want to keep Jesus and His passionate love for me at the forefront of my mind. Oh yeah, wisdom and discernment are huge too... I think I mentioned that. For all of you Cloud fans that have read "The 9 things..." I have a couple of movies running in my head right now.

On the support front, I got a note from Terry our treasurer that we are a little slow in our support raising. From the last report I saw, I am personally at $600 of the $2,300 goal. I appreciate your support for what God is going to do and your support for me and my teammates both in prayer and, for those that are called, financially.
