My name is DJ and I am the new Worship Coordinator this summer at camp! I have been leading worship at different churches and at different levels for over 7 years now. I mainly love singing, playing the piano, and playing the guitar, but I can also play several other instruments including the bass and the alto saxophone.
Worship to me is about taking the focus off of everything around you (your problems, other people's opinions, the stresses of life) and focusing instead on the beauty and power of God. What better place to do that than right in the middle of His creation? Even more, when we come together as a group and sing to Him, it can encourage us and build our faith TREMENDOUSLY. I'm expecting the Spirit of God to move in awesome ways this summer, and I hope you are too.
A little about myself-- I know I look pretty young, but I actually just graduated from Liberty University this past winter. I majored in Biomedical Sciences/Pre-med and plan on starting optometry school in Alabama in the fall. In my free time, I absolutely love hiking and have been to some pretty awesome places, including a crater in Hawaii, Cascade Falls in VA, and Hanging Rock State Park in NC, to name a few. I am terrible at fishing and obstacle courses but love kayaking so maybe I'll get to learn a few new skills at camp myself!
This summer I hope to show the joy that we can find through worshiping God together through music. I'm excited to hang out with the coordinators, counselors, and campers as we grow in our relationship with God and with others.
