Turkeygirl Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Soem of you may remember me posting about applying for and having an interview for a summer position at the DEC's Env. Ed Summer Camp; same one here near home I did my internship at. The DEC has 4 camps total. Well I get home from work and my mom opens the door to the garage and is smiling. I'm tired so I'm like what? She tells me the guy from the DEC called and I got the job as a counselor there! Woohooo!! I was really starting to worry! So I caleld him back and left a message on his voice mail. But most of the counselors are returning, along with the director, and a high return rate is a sign of a good camp! You may or may not remember me mentioning the first week of staff training being rough...up at Pack Forest away from home with basically people I didn't know who go to the bar on nights off and swear a bit,lol. But that's the real world, not the tiny community I was around going to a small Christian College. After my internship I went back to visit all summer. I really did have a blast then and made alot of friends with the other staff, not too mention working with the kids, I really felt God working through me, trying to at least spread Christ's love in a secular camp. Like a professor said in class one time, It's not the size of the impact you make on people. You don't have to do something huge and noticeable to have an influence. And these last few days, wondering if I got the job or not, I was praying and telling God that if it was His will I go back there, it will be, it's up to Him. So I won't be on much this summer, but staff training isn't until like June 10/12 somewhere around then. I just wanted to share the good news! I hope that through the summer, I will do God's will and be His servant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
