June Update!!

 Alright so I need to be running the climbing wall in about 5 minutes, so I'll make this short.

What's been going on in the life of Bill and Lindsay Griepenstroh lately?  Oh not too much, just living life at Maranatha Bible Camp.  Now that I am well acquainted with this place, things are going quite well.  Every day here is a little bit different, and for those of you who have monotonous jobs, you'd understand what a blessing that is.  The people here are very kind, and they really love each other.  In fact, I dare to say that I really haven't seen this much love from people that barely know me anywhere in my entire life.  But then again, I haven't really been around people that don't know me very well very often.

I like my job here, right now I mostly work with people, and not so much media.  It has been nice though, to have a little break from media, because making 100's of videos can get old after a while.

Speaking of video, I haven't had too much time to make youtube videos lately, although I have wanted to.  It is a bummer though, to see youtube change from the great community site into the website it is now where half the videos that are force-fed to you on the homepage are with slutty chicks because they get more views and sell ads better.  But whether or not they know it, youtube still needs people like me, smaller people who make videos with good clean humor and don't really care about making money. 

Blah blah blah, I could go on for days about youtube but I will spare you.  Ummm, I saw a mountain lion.  I actually talk about it a little in this video that no one has watched- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiA5jGSu2dk&feature=channel_page so if you are bored watch that. 

Yesterday I did a mini-triathalon.  I swam about 1/4th of a mile, then I biked 3.2 miles and ran 2 miles.  It was sweet.  I have really been obsessed with exercise since I moved here, and I usually run around 3 miles per day.  I'm not really losing any weight unfortunately, because the food here is so good.  But the way I see it I would be way fatter if I wasn't exercising so I guess I'll keep it up.

If you want to pray for us, pray for the summer staff out here that we remain united for the rest of the summer and that true conversions will be made out here rather than fake ones that people hold onto as their "salvation moment" as they continue to live in sin.  I hope everything is going well for all of you out east, and hopefully once the summer is over Lindsay and I will get to come home and visit several times! 

In Christ,

-Bill
