Rachel, God is really taking you on a journey I guess you never expected. You are learning so much, as are those who read your blog. Thanks for sharing what you are learning about God. You will probably never know how many lives are being touched by your honesty. Psalm 46 came to my mind as I was thinking about you. You are in our hearts and prayers.xxxx

Rachel I learnt so much from this Blog, the part on Greek words was particularly insightful. Thank you for taking the time to write it. Love you loads.

Blessed
Rachel I am not confused or offended but extremely blessed by your blog. I am being really challenged at the moment about wholeheartedness and it was great to read your thoughts/discoveries about it. Praying for you. x

catch up
hey Rachel, so enjoy reading your blogs! You are so honest and really bear your heart and soul. I'm sorry to hear that you are struggling with your self image (what female doesn't!!) but I want to encourage you that there can be an end to what you are feeling. Its strange that you should write about that the lies that you are listening to. I am currently doing a course in my church called Freedom in Christ which covers exactly that topic. It would be hard to tell you all about it in this email but if you go to www.ficm.org.uk you will see some info there. I will be praying for you that you will know a real freedom to be who you were meant to be in Christ and to really enjoy the life that He has planned for you. love and prayers Auntie M xxoo

Hellooooo =D
Hello there Miss Ra! Just caught up with the blogs! [I only had one to read! I've been doing well keeping up!] I think these animals you're having to look after are just to weak! GOSH! You'd think they'd try to live a bit more! ^_^ I can't believe you were told to throw it in the trashcan! >=o I suppose it's a quick way of getting rid of the body and not worrying about any kids digging it up later if it got burried! =D Aww I'm sad to hear that you feel you're mood is getting sad! =[ We all get sad sometimes and often it's hard to get happy again quickly, but try to think positive and look forward to Las Vegas and coming home! ^_^ But also look at the good points of being away from home and gaining confidence and being so very brave! =D 'Friendly Campers'!! Oh man what a thing to call them! Trying to make it sound all nice when really it's awful and they have LICE!!! ARGHHHH!!! The only good thing about that so called sports staff bonding thing is that you were in the blue team! Blue is a very good colour! =D Btw... Once tried that fake laughing thing and it kinda does work...unless you're really really upset and cant fake laugh for crying! ^_^ Well that's all I wanted to say for now... Oh and I hope you're taking care of yourself and having fun! I miss you very much back here and look forward to seeing you when you get back! Lots of hugs! Love from ME! xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hehe am gonna have to try that laughter thing. It's probably cause laughter is contagious and you probably end up laughing at the fact you're laughing. Hehe that makes no sense but it cheered me up anyway. Chin up Rach, you'll be home soon! *hugs*

Hang in there!
HI Rachel.... I have been reading your travel blog since you started it (If I dont, granda tells me anyway!) and I think you are doing brilliantly....Course you are going to have your bad days...everything is magnified when you are away from home...but remember you are the first grandchild/cousin to do this, and everyone is so impressed!! The Morrison side of the family are routing for you..keep up the good work.

Yummm Golden Corral is very yummy! Am glad you're enjoying the camp enough to want more time with the kids. Can't believe you've only got 3 weeks left! This summer is going a lot faster than I thought it would. Looking forward to seeing you back in Lancs!! xxxxxxxxx

Hey Ra! Nature Director sounds good I must say! Don't be worried about not knowing about the animals because maybe you could search about them on the internet =D The Iguana sounds different and interesting! I'll have to check the blog to see how it goes with that one ^_^! I bet this job is less of a worry! Because with horses I imagine you'd worry about falling off and getting hurt or worrying about the kids falling off and that =/ Seemed like a big big risky responsibility! I remember that animal mask thing with Ms Sunman! That was so good =D It seems to me Miss Ra that there's no need to beat yourself up because you seem to be doing a super duper job and you do deserve that reward!! You should be so pleased =] And as for down times...they come and go...I've been having one for quite a few days now but I'm just trying to think positively...which can be hard at times when you're feeling down! It's a shame about the food over there =/ I would have thought they would have had more healthier oprtions to set examples for the kids and stuff...but oh well...you're doing well coping with things...it seems so hard! I'm really proud of you sticking it out throught the hard times =D Always remember that I'm thinking of you back home! Stay safe and happy! Love me xxxxxxxx

ALIENS!
Wow! Aliens in Ohio? Hehe! I hope those kids managed to get to sleep in the end and weren't too scared! And I feel sory for the girl who the anger management girl said she'd kill >_< It's a bit unsettling for the poor girl...especially if it's causing her panic attacks! Let's hope she's ok! I'm missing you loads back here =[ but I know that you're being kept busy and hopefully keeping safe and happy! =D We're all ok back home...think we're all been kept fairly busy too! Well talk to you again soon my dear! Take care and stay safe! Loves xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Rachel the superstaff
I'm sure you do deserve it Rachel. You are always working so hard and putting in buckets loads of efforts. Just look at how much you care about making the lessons fun and applicable to the kids. It's fantastic. Continue to be a star.

Yeah, American summer camps are not the place to go for nutrition! It was awful when I was a kid, am not surprised it's still the same. Am sure you're not the only one who wants some non-fattening variety, especially if a lot of the other camp workers are girls. Maybe see if you guys can talk to someone who's in charge? It's not good for the kids either to be eating junk all the time. Woot for the award! Seeeeeeee you're lovely and everyone knows you are!!! So proud of you Rachey!!! Hope you're still enjoying the nature job. I definitely think masks and artsy things would be a fun project. Depending on the ages of the kids of course. xxxx
1st July 2008

Love you Rachey!!! *muah*

Aww hun don't be so hard on yourself. What do they always say? Never work with children or animals! :P You're working with both and it sounds like you're doing a good job to me. Accidents happen and you can't always control what the horses are going to do. Just keep at it and I'm sure it'll get better. I think the candy and notes idea is really sweet! You're such a sweetheart!!! xxxxxxxx
29th June 2008

I'm surprised about the safety being less there than in the UK. Usually American regulations make things super crazy safe! Glad your foot is doing better...by now it's probably all healed as I'm a bit behind in reading your blogs! :P xxxx
