Anna joined FCA her sophomore year of high school and thinks she spoke about ten words the whole first year because of her quiet and reserved nature. She was nervous about Leadership Camp because of that, but she quickly found out she had nothing to worry about. Camp helped get her out of her shell from the very start. When she got to camp, she was immediately greeted by the college student leaders and connected with her huddle. Within an hour, they all had instant friends, and that first night they played a game where they sought out similarities with others in their huddle which led to instant connections.
Her huddle of girls at Leadership Camp was also paired with a huddle of guys that they affectionately referred to as their “brother huddle.” The two huddles together made a super huddle and did fun bonding activities as a larger group. They had a lot of fun but also became quick friends. They ate together, participated in daily activities and attended evening sessions together where they heard from impactful speakers about what it means for those who follow Christ to serve others by leading.
