People who make great weekends happen (a few of them)

Here are some of the fun people that work really hard to make each weekend happen. I am sure that I didn't get every one that helped or is fun... We had a great time this winter thanks for all who helped.

Being on year round VS here at Amigo, I have found that one of the best things is the opportunity to be present for the changing seasons.

When I came in January, there was a foot of snow on the ground. We stayed busy with Winter Youth Retreats, and I found that my favorite activity in the snow was cross-country skiing, something I had never done before.

As we moved into spring, the pace quickened. Spring O/EE was busy, yet rewarding: late nights and early mornings teaching students about God's creation. The flowers started blooming, plants turned green, and animals came out of hiding
Summer – what can I say. Vibrant. People everywhere. It was a great chance to broaden my usual perception of summer camp as I delved into roles with which I was not familiar.

Fall has been an exciting season for me, as it is one during which I have never even seen Amigo. From the changing leaves and flowers in the marsh, to the autumn olive berries and grapes – there are so beautiful elements of God's creation at Amigo that I have never gotten to experience before now.

With the changing seasons come changes in the ministry of camp as well. Just as weather changes, God leads us to different “seasons” in our own lives and vocations, and sometimes it takes being in a place where that change is constantly manifested to see how God is shaping each season of our own lives.
