alright,alright,alright alright alright, HEY!

throw in a few claps....


E F Y!!!

I had been waiting to go for a year and now I'm already back home!

It's insane of fast the time flies there.

EFY is not just some other youth camp.

Believe me I've been to plenty of them.

EFY is a place that you're placed with a whole group of strangers and grow to love them as if you've known them for most of your life. It's incredible.

I really wish I could share all of the amazing and spiritual experiences that I had with all of you but doing so over blog is hard. So let me just tell you some highlights:

The Friends:

Having a group of teenagers all sharing the same standards in a group can make them bond so fast. 

With everyone's testimonies and examples in my company, I grew so much.

The Leaders:

I had two wonderful counselors this year

Lauren and Erik.

I love them so much and everything they did for me.

                                         

The Spirit:

I don't believe I have ever felt the Spirit as much as I have this week. I have been overly blessed this past week with insights and comfort that I needed so much in my life.

We even got to record how we want to "Arise and Shine"

yeah we're pretty cute.

I have grown to love the gospel and my Savior even more this week.

I loved every bit of EFY and I hope I get to go again soon(:

Quotes for this week:

"God could have said magic words to make the nails fall off the cross, but He didn't. That's love." - 5 year old boy

"It's our light not our darkness that scares us."

"Any two people can do anything as long as one of them is God."

(thanks Lauren for sharing)

"Never underestimate the power of your righteous influence"

-Sister Dalton

"There's so many of them what difference does it make?" It made a difference to this one"

"We need to try to be worthy of our Eternal Companion"

He's alive for us."

Don't walk on me I'm trying hard to grow spiritually.
