Start of Week 5

Hey! So new campers have come rolling in to castaway today. It's a beautiful day outside and life couldn't be better. My summer staff is fantastic and the community we're building here is great. My job has gotten easier because I've trained my summer staff so well they don't need me to guide them as much as the first few weeks. My tan has gotten pretty good as well. I've got a sweet sunglasses (or racoon) tan going on but don't worry mom I'm still wearing sunscreen. I'm also reading a book right now called "The Ragamuffin Gospel" by Brennan Manning, it has so much in it but it's a fantastic read and I love sharing quotes in it with my summer staff to focus us for the day. There is a quote or rather a prayer in it that the author wrote that I love sharing with other people so I'll write it on here. "Dear Lord, grant me the grace of wonder. Surprise me, amaze me, awe me in every crevice of the universe. Delight me to see how your Christ plays in ten thousand places, lovely in limbs and lovely in eyes not his, to the Father through the features of men's faces. Each day enrapture me with your marvelous things without number. I do not ask to see the reason for it all; I ask only to share the wonder of it all". Well I'm off to go run the night obstacle course for the new group of campers. Later!
