Hello my loves :)

Tonight I have decided to drop Chi O. For many reasons but mainly because I just wasn't happy being a part of it and can find happiness through my campus crusade friends and riding. I've been waiting all night nervously to talk to Jen (our new member educator) about it but she hasn't called yet.. So while I've been sitting here I always do those open the bible to a random spot and the first thing your finger hits is what you read! Lot those.. well I did that and here's what I got.. "Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, for the Lord will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being snared - Proverbs 3:25-26" Well that just made my night and I hope reading this makes your.

See you after this two week long summer camp.

All my love,

BA

Hey girls! it's been so long since i've talked to so many of you, and i feel terrible about it. being up here in new york i feel so far away from you guys and it's really hard. there are hardly any girls for me to talk to and hang out with and it makes being so far from you girls that much harder. things here are pretty good and i do love it here, but lately i've been in this downward spiral that i can't seem to get out of... all i can tell myself to make it better is that one day from now i'll be leaving here to come home to you guys :) since i know all of you have plans and you're all doing awesome stuff the rest of your week off, i totally understand if there's no way i can see all of you. but any of you that are around, let me know! i'll be home from thursday to saturday afternoon and would LOVE to see you girls!! if not this week, only "22 and a butt days" til christmas break (that's how i have to say it here :)...)

Love you guys!

Peggy you asked for it... you got it!

Ladies I love and miss you all!!!!

"The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail. Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings!"

Isaiah 58:11-12
