STP San Marcos

Tomorrow we leave for our STP (summer training program). It will be at Cal State San Marcos (5 hours south of home), we will be staying in the student apartments there. Think of it like summer camp for college students. Tom and I are helping lead and the focus is on growing intimacy with God. There will be topics like the word of God, prayer, meditation, etc. there will be a lecture on what they are, why they are important and how to do it then there is time for the students to do it. Later that day they can come back to their group and share how it went. We are so excited to be a part of it! We have two students (one girl, one boy) from Cal Poly going with us, both of whom will be sticking around SLO after so it will be a great kick off to our summer together.

As much as I am looking forward to it, there is also the part of me that doesn't like to be away from home for that long. We will be gone for over two weeks! So keep me in your prayers for that and also for energy. The last few days I have just felt uncomfortable as my tummy keeps expanding and sleeping has been affected. And baby sure seems to think that night time is play time, whenever I wake up at night and in the morning he is kicking and moving like crazy! It's always the best time to feel him but sometimes that means I get so excited about him moving that I can't get back to sleep! Lol but it's a good problem to have!

Please Pray:
-Safe travels on our way down there
-That baby continues to be healthy and grow
-For some good sleep
-and most importantly pray for the students and all of us on staff that we just get to enjoy this time with God and learn more ways to experience Him!
