Well, I had the great opportunity of being an EFY counselor a couple weeks ago. It was such a great experience!! I participated in a volunteer stay-at-home session in Ogden. The kids got there at 9 every morning and left again at 9 that night. I drove up every day which really wasn't too bad of a commute. When I was young I really enjoyed going to EFY and I was really excited to help other kids have a good time. I learned so much that week! I think I needed the experience as much, if not more than those youth! It was a good opportunity for me to step back and to judge where I am spiritually. Watching those young girls, some of which didn't really know much about the gospel, start to learn how to search the scriptures and ask questions was so great! There are so many smart, strong youth out there! So much stronger than I was at their age! It was so great to feel the spirit and try and help them feel it as well! It was also so much fun to meet new people, the other counselors were great and I feel like I made some great friends for life! Over all it was such a great experience that I signed up to do another week in august! I can't wait!!
