A Week of Spiritual Growth

Hi readers!

I apologize for the lack of posting. Last week I was busy every day with school, the Shepherds Conference, Chick-fil-A, and packing for a trip to Florida to visit Clearwater Christian College. This week, I've also been attempting to keep up with school, visiting Clearwater, and spending lots of time in the car traveling!

Last week was phenomenal for me! Starting on Wednesday, I watched as many Shepherds Conference sessions as I was available for! Our church streamed the audio and visual over the Internet, so people were frequenting our basement cafe more than usual. The only problem is the time difference between Cali and Pennsylvania :). The seven o'clock evening service begins at ten o'clock EST. Nuts, but well worth staying up for! I forgot my notebook with my notes (I am at a coffee shop hi-jacking some wireless and my notebook is sitting in my purse at my aunt's!), but I promise to post more about it later. Each of the sessions I heard contained several memorable quotables that I wrote down, so you can look forward to those.

Oh, and another thing that I forgot to mention. Does anyone know the song "The Power of the Cross?" The lyrics are sooooo good! We sang that song at communion on Sunday and again one day at the Shepherds Conference. I always feel so overwhelmed when I sing it.

This the power of the cross
Son of God, slain for us.
What a love! What a cost!
We stand forgiven at the cross!


I always get chills down my spine when I sing that!

Now the college part of the post :). I love visiting colleges! I feel so academic--visiting six classes in two days, taking notes, running around campus, studying in the library. Oh, I loved every minute! And I had the most awesomest (yes, I am well aware that I just used a double comparison ;) ) suit mates! Eight girls total: Linny, Amy, Sheresa, Andrea, Lani, Katie, Heather, and JoAnna. (If any of you ever read this, give yourselves a massive huggle!! You made my visit!!)

Well, I'd better get going. Check back for more updates soon!

Every blessing,
~Camille

I'm glad to hear your trip went so well!
I missed the Shepherd's Conference, but just downloaded "Politically Incorrect" from the web site. I think several of the elders from our church were there in person. I may ask if they have any of the cd's. There's been lots of buzz about it on the blogs I read regularly.
