This is my first update from Crofton, really, so I will first acquaint you with exactly what it is I am doing here. On September 10th, I began my stay at Camp Qwanoes. I will be here for the next eight months, and while here I will finish my first year of Bible College. This semester I will complete five courses, and possibly earn a boating license. It has been about a week and a half, and so far I have learned to belay (rope people into harnesses and then hold them back from plummetting to their doom), climbed a mountain (mt Albert/Edwards, near mt Washington), and met 26 other students and four leaders whom I already love dearly like brothers and sisters.
Furthermore I and three fellow students have committed to help organize and lead a youth worship night at my church (Cobble Hill Baptist). I will also be leading a bible study once a month (Probably on the gospel of Luke).
Because our latest trip was up the mountain, ill post some photos...
the mountain from part-way up...
the boys...
the ladies...
the celebration!In conclusion, I would love to ask a favor. If you pray, pray that I learn about God and love and encourage my peers at every opportunity. Whether you pray or not keep in touch with me! I want to hear how everything is going back in Victoria, too!

I just noticed, you can see Mt Washington in the background of the photo of the ladies. The parking lot at the base of that is about where we started hiking from. Until our campsites (at the base of Albert/Edwards) we were carrying huge packs! Going up the mountain, however, we only carried what you can see on us in the photos. We were extremely blessed with awesome weather!
