I will get to the second article about the way YRUUers want to improve con planning, but I just can't resist talking about QUUest!
Last year, campers wrote letters to themselves and gave me the addressed envelopes to mail to them in 6 months. Well, it's been 6 months so I pulled out the box andd mailed the letters. In that box, I also found a handful of postcards I'd asked them to write to send our supporters to let them know that this camp is important.
I was shocked to tears to read over the incredibly heartfelt gratitude, and to realize just HOW important this camp is to this district. I just have to share: (Even though many were signed, I ommitted the names since I haven't asked permission to share online).
I learned about Unitarian Universalism. We also went deeper into our spiritualities and grew as people. I loved it. It also helped with leadership. QUUest is fantastic. We make friends for life!
QUUest was the best thing that I could have experienced at this time in my life. I eliminated my self doubt, and so much more. From the bottom of my heart, thank you
This camp helped me make friends and find my inner spirituality and Thank You!!!!
I really came out of my shell at QUUest because of all the awesome welcoming people.
As a camper at QUUest Camp, I’ve realized some very important lessons and have really changed as a person, it was great!
QUUest is the most important camp ever. WE LOVE QUUEST! It teaches us how to love.
Before coming to QUUest I was an Atheist, and after Jenny Finn’s workshop I started believing in god.
Ooooh my goodness. My life was completely impacted by QUUest Camp this week. My faith in humanity has increased tenfold. I learned so much about UUism and religion and spirituality.
This was easily one of the better experiences of my life. I have gained so much spiritual knowledge that I will keep with me the rest of my life.
QUUest has changed my life! Next year I will be going to college and I did not know if I could make it on my own QUUest is great.
Thank you! This camp means the world to me. You are wonderful.
One thing I take with me is the acceptance and I feel honored to be part of this group.
This camp has been so inspirational and eye-opening. It has shown me a side of myself I had no idea even existed.
This camp has helped me grow spiritually so much! We appreciate your supporting it very much! Thank you!
Spiritual sanctuary has been found and maintained.
QUUest has been one of the most amazing, life changing experiences of my life. It gave me a true connection to myself, the world and to the wonderful people I met. I would do it again in a heartbeat.
The first time I have felt like a good human for weeks! LOVE
BEST WEEK OF MY LIFE!
