Next Steps

Pray for us as Erin and I consider the next steps concerning camp. We left camp on Saturday, our minds full of things to consider. We are in the process of sorting through all we have seen and been told. Here are some of the things we are thinking through-praying through-
1. The need for our vision to come under a nonprofit organization- either our own, or under another organization.
2.  The need for a board over us- people that share our vision and will hold us to the task.
3.  Setting goals for camp. We need to set short and long term goals to get this camp off the ground, and we need wisdom in deciding on the goals and the various priorities.
4.  Workers. We need workers willing to partner with us on a variety of levels- from camp workers to churches willing to partner with us.
5. Our family.  I need to constantly be aware of the need to balance the passion of my vision with the responsibility of being a Godly husband and father.  For those of you that know me, I often jump into things without looking back.  It's a necessary quality to follow a vision, but lousy if I jump and leave my other duties behind. 

We are on an exciting journey!  Our emotions run the gamut from cloud nine to feeling overwhelmed.  But we serve a mighty God, and all we need to do is trust and obey.
