Note From "GT"
Lindsay and I send our greetings from Branson, MO (a.k.a. Hillbilly Vegas). Even as I joke about that, I know we are truly blessed to live in the Ozarks and be part of a ministry that is touching so many lives. When I'm not on the road, I take a peek out of my office window (which just so happens to overlook the K-1 zipline) and literally have to pinch myself because I feel like I'm living the dream. Kids, Sports, Families, College staff and most importantly Jesus. That is what Kanakuk is about and that's what I get to be a part of every day of my life. I get to dress up like a superhero to help a timid kamper go down the zipline, talk with staff members dealing with major life issues, grow closer to the Lord in my own walk and all to be a part of something bigger than myself, and make memories that will last a lifetime. Unlike my beautiful wife Lindsay, I was never a kamper, but for both of us our spiritual development and relationship with the Lord was cultivated on the very ground I office on. Serving within Kanakuk for over a decade has been one of the greatest blessings of my life. I feel the true magnitude of God's grace every time I tell someone about the ministry the Lord allows me to serve in. Lindsay and I can't wait to meet you or c-ya again this summer.
