BEACH WEEK

Being involved in the church, Roddy and I got the opportunity to be "adult sponsors" for the FBC youth camp- convienently, the camp was in South Padre, TX! Roddy was asked to play in the band and help to lead the worship- which he was SO excited about. It started off a bit rocky as Roddy had a role to play and not knowing hardly anyone, I wasn't sure where I fit in! However, as the week continued we both loosened up and had a blast.
We left at 8pm on a Sunday and drove the 14 hours to our destination. Whoever said you could get a decent night's sleep on a charter bus was WRONG! It was a long drive to say to least. BUT, it was so refreshing to spend a week deep in the Word and in worship, and better yet- on the BEACH!
The Sr. High group (including Roddy and I) got to stay at the La Quinta right on the beach, which just happened to be the same hotel my family (and Roddy) stayed in last March. It was also the same beach that Roddy proposed at! I can't count how many times Roddy told his proposal story- to everyone- whether or not they had heard it before! We identifyed the room that we all stayed in, the place on the beach where it all went down, where we took our engagement pictures and even the hallway in the hotel where we called all of our friends! It was such a sweet time to remeniss! Such sweet memories!
Overall I believe there were 27 salvation decisions and many many more other decisions for the Lord! I was personally so convicted about how I tend to blend in- especially at work- when there is such a huge ministry opportunity with both the staff and all the patients that come through the ER on a daily basis! I've been praying about how I can be Jesus to the people I come in contact with. Roddy confirmed with me a few days after returning from camp that he knew he was called to ministry- which I had complete peace about! I'm so excited to see how the Lord uses him.
