I'm at Lake Junaluska, NC for the Southeast Jurisdiction Young People in Mission conference. I flew in to Asheville airport yesterday and was shuttled in from there. On the flight, I got a window seat next to the engine! I think that's the closest I've ever been to an operating gas turbine.
Lake Junaluska is a beautiful place, which is an understatement. Nestled in the mountains covered in lush green trees, this place reminds me of a more mountainous version of home.
I met a lot of great people here already, including a mission intern who, in college, roomed with some of my friends from Washington DC! I'm looking forward to day two!
