Kentucky
July was pretty much my travel month. First we went to the beach, then Ecuador, and a week later I went with a group to M-Fuge in Williamsburg, Kentucky. I started off with a bad attitude. I mean, I had just gotten back from an awesome trip across the world to Ecuador. I came on this trip just because I enjoyed my time last year in Philadelphia. Everyone at M-Fuge was like 10 and I would probably be the oldest one in my crew. Turns out I was. Out of PCY (painting/construction/yardwork), Social, Childrens, and Creative, I got put in the creative group-which was my first choice. I chose this group because I knew I would be challenged. During our stay in Kentucky, we would be visiting various nursing homes and adult day care centers. I was terrified, but I knew that no matter what, I had to put all my effort into this ministry. I'm not very good at talking with people. It is way way out of my comfort zone. My comfort zone would be childrens or social where I would fold clothes and various other things so I wouldn't have to talk to people. Turns out, I enjoyed my work in my crew. We would go to nursing homes and adult day care centers and I would sing with a couple of others. We would do some hymns and some silly songs. Then we would put on a puppet show and mingle with the others. I learned that God won't push my farther than I can handle. He knew I could handle this trip, but I didn't. Thank goodness His ways are higher than ours.
