short notes

Camp retreat starts on Saturday - pray for the weather, for the kids, for the volunteers. It is always a special time out in the woods. Pray for deep relationships being built among us.
Finished a job that helps financing some necessary work at my car and part of Nepal this fall. So no vacation this year though I really feel like I could need one.
Working on the Nepal outreach this fall makes me homsick. Really. Can't wait to step out of the aircraft and just be there again.
Not sure about my spiritual life. Feels like in waiting line, not knowing what I'm waiting for. Sounds more depressed than I feel, though. It was the first summer for 6 years now that I spent at home. And it was a rainy one full of work. Maybe I just miss being on the road and spending time with kids.
To add on this, there were some decisions to take this summer and which are not implented in the full yet. What I don't like. September will bring new paths of life. I will work 75% as a social worker at the Christian School. A step of faith again. Because we are not a school run by the state, finances are always difficult and special jobs like mine are only secure from one year to another. But I love the school, the students and the teachers. Can't wait to see them again! And also my girls from the girls club, it has been a long time not being there.
So far with this short update. Being at home outdoors the next week... :-)
