What. A. Beach Retreat.

God is seriously moving and it is so evident with these people. He is working. He brought me on this trip for a reason, and boy did my cup overflow. He has shown me so so much joy these past few weeks and this trip solidified it- NOTHING can steal my joy I get from the Lord. We are made ON purpose and FOR A purpose. Let us build our foundation on the rock that Jesus is and keep placing our bricks! TYJ for Temple Baptist, my mom, and for these absolutely amazing people I have met on this trip. Beach retreat 2026: you are unforgettable.

“Therefore, as Gods chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.” Colossians 3:12

WHAT A GOD WE SERVE!!!

The lord is my good shepherd.
Words cannot fully describe the joy I have being able to serve this summer. Being able to be creative and use my gift to push the kingdom of Christ, as well as capturing God move through staff and campers will always be a blessing in my life. I’ve created life long friendships that I’ll cherish forever. This summer and the staff will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Psalms 23
The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I lack.
2 He lets me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters.
3 He renews my life; He leads me along the right paths for His name’s sake.
4 Even when I go through the darkest valley, I fear no danger, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff-they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
6 Only goodness and faithful love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord as long as I live.

Also ignore how this is like 2 weeks late

WHAT. A. SUMMER.

there will never be enough words to describe what a joy it was to serve this summer with this staff! I have gained countless friendships, experiences, and so many stories of how God used the even smallest things to bring honor and glory to Him! my love for missions has grown to be so much bigger than I could have ever expected. it was amazing to see staff, students, and adults have an appreciation for something I love so much!

to my staff, thank you! thank you for and unforgettable summer filled with late night Canes and Taco Bell runs, so many games of just dance, and weekends we spent traveling together! I saw the Lord working in your lives and in the lives of your students, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have served alongside each of you!

THUNDER OUT✌🏼

This post along with the next is just a glimpse into the joy that is found from Jesus in the world of this ministry. Specifically Southern Travel ‘26, truly y’all are such an incredible team. I look back on our moments of training week (shoutout that MJ dance) and I just remember feeling so secure knowing this team is gonna do some work for the Lord. And that’s exactly what happened.

The pictures on this post include ways I see the Lord’s kindness the most.

First, in my team. From my production crew, leadership team, to our whole staff and coordinator (we love Amanda) and even each special teamer, truly each person on this team has been hand picked and placed so perfectly. Jesus, I am thankful.

Second, are moments captured where we just worked with zeal. Some training can prepare you for the things you will do as a fuge staffer, but nothing other than the joy of the Lord can fill you with the energy and passion we have doing it. Whether it’s rec speakers on our backs walking through mud or it’s 404 silent disco headphones awaiting to be charged-these moments are cherished, not dreaded, because of the ministry it provides and the people you do it with.

More to be said on the next post later, so for now, peace! ✌️🫶

What a summer. What a God. What a Good Shepherd.

This summer, I was incredibly blessed by the staff the Lord placed around me. They loved me so well, gave the best hugs, and made every day brighter. As an FD, I couldn’t have asked for better people to do store runs with or a better team to help make the store a place where ministry happened. They didn’t see it as just a place to buy shirts and croc charms they saw it as another opportunity to have intentional conversations about Jesus. I will always be grateful for that.

There are so many things I could say about this staff. They genuinely love Jesus, desire to serve others, and do everything with the joy of the Lord. Above I listed just a few of my favorite things about each staffer as well as some of the memories I will never forget.
I will forever be grateful for the way @have_courage_b_kind lead this sweet team with such love and devotion to the Lord!

But beyond the memories with staff, I’ll never forget the ways the Lord moved this summer. I watched Him work in the lives of staffers, students, adult leaders, and churches. On the longest days, He faithfully provided strength, joy, and peace that only He could give.

This summer, people who were lost, searching, and without direction met the Good Shepherd. They found hope and life in Jesus. We witnessed lives changed, hearts transformed, and countless reminders that Jesus is still good.
