Planes, Trains and Automobiles!

Me, Estera and the Baltic Sea! Isn't it pretty!
Kamila and I. She is speaking English and I'm translating into Polish!
Zoey, the Hashes cute Labradoodle!
Camp
The Baltic Sea, it was warm and gorgeous!!


I went to Poland and it was amazing! I love Poland, just so that everyone knows.


I fell in love with the idea of hanging out with Youth and really pouring into their lives more this trip than I ever have before. I hung out with a lot of girls, but I connected deeper with three specific girls. Estera and I had many long talks, lots of hang out time at the beach and lots of walking. She really wanted someone to talk to and just listen. Sara and I talked about how to say words in Polish. She taught me the colors and numbers. She and I talked a lot especially when she got a tasty cold half way through the week and I made sure she was okay. Angelika didn't speak hardly any English and I spoke almost no Polish, so we did a lot of smiling and nodding. We also really enjoyed dancing the camp dance together.


All three of these woman love Jesus and are pouring their hearts into the Youth Group. They are awesome woman and I was so excited to be able to pour into their lives a little bit this week.


Other than that I met and go to hang out with so many different people. God really worked and moved at this camp. Thank Jesus. I have come away with a new sense of exitement for the work that God has in store for the world, Poland and me.
