Our new condo


After alot of hard work from volunteers and blessing from the Lord, we have moved into our new condo. Thanks to Bob the Builder, Kory, Gene and Mary, all the Work and Worship volunteers and all the other volunteers that put their time, energy, and blessing into making this new condo come together for the staff of Mark 2. The new condo is complete with three suites for each staff member, a common kitchen, living room and dining room. The suites each have a bedroom, bath, and living area.

There are about 60 condos on the property. Before Young Life got the properity, the Rajneesh, a cult that came to Oregon from India, lived on the Big Muddy Ranch (which is now Wildhorse Canyon.) The Rajneesh built all the condos on the ranch, plus most of the buildings here. Each condo had 10 bedrooms and 8 half bathrooms. There were no kitchen or living area in the condos. They would eat all there meals down at a common dining hall. They also had a worship building, that they worship their main guy, (The Bagwan) at. We now use the worship center as a Sport Center complete with a rock wall, skate park, weight room, and four basketball courts for campers. (It is a huge building). It is amazing seeing how God made something met for evil and turned it into good.

Going to SD

I just got back from a week of South Dakota, after a long, hard summer. We were very busy this summer with campers everyday. South Dakota was very fun and a good break from the canyon. My sister, Brooke, had her wedding reception/ going away party. (She is moving to Japan in October) We all went to Vegas at the being of June for her wedding.
I also spent alot of time with my nieces Sophie, Baylie, and nephew Jax. Baylie wanted me to be her Show and Tell at school. That was very fun, I spent the afternoon with her second grade class. Baylie loved it. I forgot my camera when I went to her class, I was so bummed! I saw some of old teachers that taught me, which was alot of fun. I took Baylie to Gulches of Fun on the last day. Baylie went on the go-carts with Sam, then Megan, Molly, Sam, Kat, Me, and Baylie all did a round of golf. I am not a very good put golfer. Baylie and I also went on the bumper boats. Good thing it was a hot day. Megan and Molly, and my mom also came for the weekend.
