If you were a pasta shape, which would you be and why?
I’m not positive this is a pasta shape, but I’m thinking I would be a tortellini stuffed with spinach and cheese! Like a tortellini there’s a lot of fun under the surface!
What are the top 3 things on your bucket list?
1. Visit all of the national parks! 2. Hike to Machu Picchu in Peru! 3. Run a half marathon!
If animals could drive, which would be the best driver and why do you think this?
Ok hands down monkeys! Their brains are pretty similar to ours and they have opposable thumbs. Only predicament might be the brakes!
What is your favorite Crestridge Tradition?
My favorite Crestridge tradition is standing on our chairs at dinner and singing! I love a good dance party and it’s so fun watching campers get the chance to do something they don’t usually get to do at home!
What are you praying in anticipation for this summer?
I am praying for all of the campers who might not know Jesus yet that they will leave the gates knowing they are God’s beloved daughter! And I am praying for campers who already have relationships with the Lord to have a new found eagerness and desire for the Lord that will continue beyond their summer at camp! The Lord always works in such incredible ways at camp, and I know He will again in summer 2024!
