I was recently in a wedding. My buddy was Scottish, actually, he still is Scottish, so the groomsmen wore kilts! It was a great experience.

Wanna see pics? Go here.

I’m coming to the end of what’s turned into one of the greatest weeks I’ve had this summer and I’m honestly at a loss of words, well, not really, because I’m writing this, but this post really doesn’t do it justice.

Boise, Idaho is my “3rd Home”. That’s all there is to it. I love it here. I love everything about it.

This past week I’ve had the wonderful privilege to serve my brothers and sisters at Family Life Church and it’s changed my life in so many ways, and I don’t go back to Portland until Friday! It’s been fun, challenging, funny, convicting, inspiring, and so much more. Plus, it’s been an honor to have been a part of Pastor Doug Lasit’s last official summer camp as a Youth Pastor. What an experience.

I’ve learned a lot about life and ministry over the last few years, but the thing that’s changed me forever is the love that’s been birthed in my heart for the Body of Christ. I love it, with all of my heart, and I can’t get enough of it. Being at this camp this past week reminded me that I’m nothing but a humble servant on a team that is so much bigger than me, and it’s not that I forgot about that principle, but it’s been very refreshing to be reminded of it.

I wish I could take still shots of the faces I see from the drum-set during the worship services. The smiles, the tears, the jumping, the hands lifted high, all priceless memories of my brothers and sisters, people I may never see again, but I know they’ll be out there fighting the same fight and singing for joy because He’s truly done great things. It’s all been engraved into the deepest part of my heart.

What I belong to (The Body of Christ) is so much bigger than myself, and I love it.

I love that life is truly better together.

Just finished lunch with my friends and my lovely Grandma decides to bring out a bunch of my baby pictures to show them. Nice! Thanks Grandma, thanks… : )

Just finished putting together my summer traveling schedule and I’m pretty stoked. With stops to Canada, Seattle, Boise, & California, this is looking to be one of the best summers yet! In the mean time, I only have two weeks left of school. Almost there!!
