The excitement is upon us! From July 5-8, eMi is celebrating 25 years of ministry by holding conference in beautiful Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Being the international office for eMi, we have been scurrying in preparation for this event. Packets are being put together, schedules worked out, and camping equipment is being packed. I’ve been putting binders together and working on AutoCad finishing a Costa Rica project for my project leader. The weekend consists of workshops on topics such as disaster relief, working in third work countries, and support raising. Staff from the Guatemala, Uganda, India, and Canada office will be there.
Us interns are actually leaving a week a head of time to go camping and hiking. We’re all really excited to see bears and wander around the Grand Tetons (supposedly the most beautiful place in the world).
I’ll be leaving early because the celebration for my grandpa is on the 8th. I can’t wait to see all the people that his life has touched and see the relatives once again. It will be a time of reflecting, sorrow yet celebration!
Now, I’m off to go bouldaring (rock climbing ‘around’ the rocks without rope) at Red Rock. Hopefully it doesn’t rain : )
The staff and other interns here have been an amazing support as I’m not with my family right now. God couldn’t have provided a better family away from family, thanks!
And yet the most comfort has come from the Comforter, Himself.
“You will cry out for help, and He will say
‘Here am I’ “
~Isaiah 58:9
Oh what a day this has been to live!
Love Always,
Lianne
