This May i was hired by Youth Works, my possition was to help out where needed and an extra staff incase one of the other staff quit. So in may Youth Works flew me and all the Canadian staff to Denver for training. We spent a week there then flew together to our sites. I was with the Thunder Bay staff, they needed the extra staff member since they only had one prep week before they started hosting youth groups and churches and providing ministry opertunities for them.
It was great we had up to 72 people on site at a time the youth were great and really steped out of their comfort zones.
I stayed in Thunder Bay for a month, one prep week and three weeks of service trips.
Then on the Thursday of my third week i got called out to be a Site Director in Vancouver BC.
So that Saturday morning at about 4 I flew out to BC. When i was picked up at the airport I went straight to my new team and hung out with them.
My area director trained me that week on what exactally the Site Director role intailes.
I had to keep the schedual moving make sure everything that needs to get done is getting done or will get done. Communicate to the adult and trip leaders about the schedual any changes. Addressing any concerns they may have. I had to live into three staff memebers facilitating staff meetings and connecting with them in One on Ones.
It was stretching and challenging i was exhausted and warn. God was my strength in every situation. All the promises He spoke into my life during the fall didn't change they were what i held on to. All the joy and passion was from Him. He took so many situations in His hands. He taught me alot about myself, about other people. It was intense.
God knew i was ready for it!!! I love that He knows me so well, knows what i can take !
