For a couple weeks this summer I have had the chance to be an EFY counselor. I knew i would have fun doing it, because i loved going to EFY. But there is so much more as a counselor that you get out of it, it really is so amazing!
Week #1
My first week was in Salt Lake City at the U. It was so intimidating trying to teach for the first time in my life, but so rewarding! I had 6 girls that were darling. They were all so strong in their testimonies. I felt like i learned more from them than they learned from me!

I Also Had two Awesome Co Counselors, Anna and Jeff. They taught me so much! Jeff is such a sweetheart and a gentleman. Anna was just as amazing! She is so cute, so smart and i love her to death!

This is the whole company! Our name was 'Sure Foundation' We took 1st place in the banner and 2nd in the cheer competition. They Were Great!
This is Claire. She was one of Anna's girls, but i learned so much from here! she is an amazing young girl with a strong testimony! I Loved getting to know her throughout the week!
Week #2
My second week was even more amazing. I knew what i was doing, what i wanted to do and i felt like i really made a difference to m girls. I had 7 girls this week, i was suppose tohave 10 but 3 didnt show up. Each one of them struggled with there testimony in some area so i felt like i was there to help then and was alot better as a counselor than the 1st week. I know that they felt the spirit though the week and grew so much!
pizza night! Firehouse! YUM!

I only had one co couselor, His name was Shane. He was hilarious and always said the most awkward things.
I also got really really close to my boys this week. They were all so cute! It was so fun to hang out with them all week long!
