The whole international Young Life crew at our commissioning service at the end of Cross-Cultural Orientation in Colorado Springs. We are heading to Africa, Asia, Europe, and Latin America--all over the world.
This is the main lodge at Crooked Creek Ranch in Fraser, Colorado where we were for the second 2 weeks of training--New Staff Training with a total of about 175 new staff from the U.S. and internationally.
The beautiful mountain view from Crooked Creek. I got to look at this during breaks--it kept me going with 10-12 hours of class and lectures every day!
And when I was feeling REALLY tired in the mornings--sunrises like this got me up and reminded me of the beauty of creation all around me!
It wasn't ALL work :) Here is a group of my new international friends (and Devin, who does YL in Florida)--from the left: Meagan (going to Germany), Bonnie (Belgium), Sarah (England), Emily (Dominican Republic), Sarah (Tanzania), me, Devin, Denae (Singapore), and Ariel (Portugal). At every Young Life camp they hold a carnival for this kids--this was my first time experiencing the carnival as a "camper." We had fair food (cotton candy, popcorn, corn dogs, funnel cakes!), games, and lots of laughter!
I just wanted you to get a quick snapshot of my few weeks in Colorado!
