E Plurbus Unum

Trip info: for those wondering I will be returning to the states August 9th and I am currently I the Czech. The status of the tri is pre-English camp the rest of our youth group will arrive tomorrow morning. Then in the afternoon all of the camp will arrive ad we will have testing and our first evening program. The camp will run from Saturday night onto Saturday morning and we return with the students to Trebic for follow up.

This photo above is a photo of our training center called Brajlov. This is where i met with the team for the first time and got to meet some of the people i am working under for Engish camp. This training was much like other years where we would meet on the second story meeting room and talk about Czech culture, relationships, Czech history, English classes and spend time praying with our teams and bonding with some from other teams. 

The forehead at the bottom of the picture is our intern team leader (whome i am joining with) named Sarah, you will see more pictures of her later i am sure.   

 This is the view out the window of the training room where there is this fine river with rushing waters. The building used to be a mill a hundred years ago but has been transformed into a hotel and restaurant. This morning we just left this place, but for the time we were there it was a fantastic setting to reflect on what God is about to do and a good place to relax.
Below is a picture of some members of out team- the three on the left actually just joined in the last week after just doing a camp with a town called Eb and were able to stay because our trip was short staffed and short on Americans. Ashley, Sabrina, and Richie are rockstars from California and we have already had a few chances to jell together.

 On the left is a picture of the youth leader in Trebic Lukas who has been an awesome manager of our team and putting the english camp together. He is a great guy with a fantastic attitude and loves serving Jesus.

This last picture is a building that is adjacent to the hotel and has not been maintained but has a pretty cool rustic look to it.


Looking forward- we made it to camp today and started preparing thing for camp. There is much to do tomorrow as the rest of the Czech team will come and we will get to worship and pray with them before all of camp arrives in the afternoon. Pray for unity between the churches as well as rest for all the americans- especially those from california because they are doing back to back english camps. Also pray for the interns as this is their third and final english camp of the summer, that we will serve Jesus together.
