Another Peek Into Our Lives!


What up Guys!

Gabe here! and I am back at it to give you all an update on how things are going and what we all are up to. Since its been a while since most of you have seen our faces I shall try to match pictures to most, or at least some of the activities and events of the past week!

So jumping right in, I have to give a shout out to the Detroit Zoo for having some incredibly active animals and being incredibly relaxing to all of us the Saturday before last...especially after leaving the house at 5:30 to get there by 6:30 for Cornerstones Annual Zoo Walk!

 The Zoo visit was very fun and allowed each of us to goof off and relax a little bit before we started our  first week of real camp, which as you have read was a challenge at first, but incredibly rewarding in the end.  It was Incredible for me personally to look back on the week as a whole and see how God in his wisdom brought the perfect amount of campers for us to spend legitimate quality time with, and begin solid relationships. and from this I must give all the glory to our Incredible God! We had the chance to be humbled by God and still be used to serve Him in the lives of those he put us in contact with, all we had to do was stay faithful and maintain a heart of service.

Speaking of service, over the past two days we were gifted with the chance to put Gods command to be the servants of all into action! We Labeled, folded, stuffed, stamped and sent out over 5,000 flyers and applications starting Monday morning at 8:30. On top of that, we still found time to catch the World Cup with Mr. Heck (even though we were sorta late) That, my friends, is domination! However, I would be lying if I told you that it was an easy and frustration free task. In fact, it was far from such, but in the hours of monotony is where God showed me just a tiny nugget of what it means to serve God through serving others. I must confess that as we started into the endless pile of paper my attitude was less than prime. Not only did I think that the letters were a waste of paper and my oh so valuable time, I also thought that the job was some how beneath me. This is where that conviction of the Holy Spirit came in and punched my pride in the face. Who the heck am I to be possessive of the time God has given me to serve. If I am truly here to represent Christ to the people of Detroit it matters not what form of service Christ will put me in, it simply matters that I am faithful in that task...this realization was humbling and pushed me to fulfill the aforementioned command of Christ.

That is about 1/4 of the total dropped mail...
As I end this post, I must give a shout out to three incredible people. First, My Brother Isaac Moore whose graduation Tim, Chad, and myself were overjoyed to attend this weekend. I love you man, and im super proud of the man you have become in Christ, keep it real down at AU, dog.

 Second & Third shout out goes to my sister Ellen Moore & Mrs. Heck. Ellen, who also had her graduation (form College) party this weekend, came up to help us stuff envelopes up here in Mo-Town. Your heart for God has and always will be my inspiration. Speaking of inspiration, Mrs. Heck is the best one can find, her compassion for others is an incredible example of Christ's Compassionate heart and eyes.

Queens.
His Servants.
Tim, Spence, Gabe, Chad
