Summer Pictures....FCA Camp!

My first adventure for the summer was helping out at a Fellowship of Christian Atheletes (FCA) sports camp in Monterey, CA. My college basketball coach is one of the camp directors and she asked myself and my friend, Denise Feil, to be the Huddle Leader Coordinators. Basically our job was to train the huddle leaders and to encourage them throughout the week. The huddle leaders are sort of like counselors to the campers. It was a great week full of lots of laughter and growing in the Lord. Everyone seemed to be challenged in their own way. Its neat how God meets every person exactly where they are at and helps them grow in their own way. It was awesome to be used by God to encourage high school athletes to be competitors for the love of the game but to also honor the Father with their abilities. Here's just a few pictures from the week. Just to explain a few of the photos. The basketball coach is a two-time Olympic gold medalist for woman's wheelchair basketball. She even let us put the medals around our neck! So cool! Also, a few of our veteran huddle leaders decided to play a prank on Denise and I on the last night. They taped our door with athletic tape and put mattress around the door to barricade us in. It was pretty funny but nothing compared to Timmy...don't ask! Enjoy a taste of FCA camp!
