Kitchies and Maintenance: A Match Made in Heaven

It's hard to believe that Term 5 is starting today!! As we welcome our new campers into the gates, I thought I'd take a minute to recap term 4 from the kitchen perspective. I had the privilege to work with some of the most fantastic girls over the last two weeks, and we had a BLAST! It was definitely a term for the history books, and I can't say enough wonderful things about the kitchies. One of the highlights of the term was the great relationship we had with the maintenance men. They work super hard doing things that are absolutely vital to keep camp running: mowing, taking out trash, fixing squeaky doors, and just about any other job you can imagine. Our jobs overlap a little and the guys were extra helpful in the kitchen last term, so a unique friendship was struck. Sometimes we'd even walk into the kitchen to find encouraging notes from them!  It was such a great picture of the community we've developed here at Kivu, centered around serving and loving one another because God first loved us. Thank you, maintenance men, for being such servants to camp and friends to the kitchies! You are the unseen heroes of camp! Now on to term 5-- we're so excited!

The whole group together; I feel so blessed to spend my summer this way!
