HI! I'm McKenna Ferguson. I'm from a suburb south of Denver, Colorado. I've grown up in the rocky mountains, skiing and hiking mostly. So far I only have five 14ers under my belt but I'm going for the 54 (all the ones in the state of colorado). I enjoy anything that has to do with being outside. I'm a sophomore at Fort Lewis College, a small liberal arts college in the small mountain town of Durango, Co. I'm double majoring in English and Philosophy, I'm going to be a writer after I do some overseas volunteering for a couple years. I'm a pretty shy person even though I try my hardest not to be. At least now I don't turn the color of my hair like I did in middle school whenever someone said a word to me. I love books and bright colors and thai food and watching clouds. I really like listening to people's stories and arguing about philosophical ideas that no one can solve. I work at a little organic coffee shop making lattes better than anything Starbucks can dish out. :)
I've been a Christian for three years now, thanks to Younglife. I'd gone to Frontier Ranch and Crooked Creek a few times before but hadn't been ready to take the big step to committing my life to Christ. To me Younglife was just a place where I could chill with all of my friends. I went to work crew out at Lost Canyon in Arizona the summer of 2006 and it changed my life. Completely. Last summer I went to work crew at Malibu Club up in Canada. I am beyond excited/stoked/ready for this upcoming month. I can't wait to completely give up my own agenda for a month and just let Christ work through me.
