We just returned from Wilderness North in Northern Minnesota for a week of Leadership Quest. What a great week! Owen was the team leader for several groups of high schoolers from different churches. His parents were even able to come up for a few days and experience Wilderness North in all of its amazing beauty!
These students were GREAT! They pitched right in and helped with camp duties and thrived in such an encouraging environment. I am thankful that I was able to get to know them a little bit inbetween juggling 3 kids and being out of our normal routine.
I was a little concerned at the amount of hurt coming from many of the young girls and number of things they are trying to decipher about their lives. I firmly believe though that there is no better place for them than to be here. Wilderness North is truly HOLY ground and God works deeply here as He sees fit on the journey that He has chosen us for.
Owen got sick on Thursday and has been pretty tired. Don't know if it is just a flu or something else. He rarely gets sick but maybe he got it from the kids.
It has been a great week but it is also good to be home and around family and friends.
