Training camp has been amazing. At first, I was nervous about what would happen because we weren't told what to expect at all. I am definitely learning to live without expectations. We are at Toccoa Falls College 2 hours from Atlanta, GA. It's beautiful here and today we walked to a waterfall. My team is so great and we have already made an awesome community together. I can tell that each person has a specific role to play this summer and they're a vital part of the team. Besides sleeping in the dorms, the second night we were given 2 tarps and some rope and we had to make a shelter to sleep in for the night. Then we could pick 3 things to take with us out there. It was cold, but a great team bonding experience. Overall, God has taught me a lot since being here. I am learning to get rid of expectations. I know that when we get to Guatemala tomorrow and throughout the rest of the summer our expectations won't always be met. I'm trying to go there with a blank and open mind. I've also learned that God is trustworthy and I am going to be learning to trust Him so much more this summer. Tomorrow morning we fly into Guatemala City and then drive to Puerto Barrios. I'm excited to finally be there and let God work through me!
