"I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness." – Jeremiah 31:3
I was with old friends, and I made new friends. I felt safe here. I didn't feel hated nor judged for the first time in a long time. I didn't care if people saw me cry, laugh nor fall because if they laughed, it wasn't at me, it was with me. I felt like a different person, and I love that person. I hope I never lose that. The thing I loved the most was the club time. I learned new songs, learned about God, and I learned that it's not just me who feels pain, sadness, ugly, untalented or misused. I needed to know that! So thank you so much for paying for me to go to camp.
Love, Amber
