About to Depart

There is no way that this summer could have blown me away more, I am truly thankful for what God did in my life through these camps this summer.
I met incredible teammates who were such encouraging people throughout the summer, I met campers who changed my life, and I got to know my Savior in a real way through a sport I love.

I am sitting in the airport waiting for Stu to get through customs so that we can get coffee before our flights depart. I am a little bit in denyal I think, it doesn't feel like I am going home at all. It doesn't feel like I just said goodbye to six people who now mean so much to me. I am excited to go home and back to work and school though, I know that I will be able to use some of these things that I learned this summer in my everyday life with coworkers and school and who knows what else.

School starts on Monday, yes thats two days from now, and i feel great (incredibally sore but great). What a way to kick off the school year, I can't wait to get out there and start making a difference.

Thank you to everyone who helped me get here this summer, your prayers and financial support have truly blessed my life. I am a different person because of this summer. Thank you for believing in me!

  1. I love you Beans. Your words describe just how I felt each time we left for furlough in America or left America to return to Japan. It's hard. Praying for you.
