The week is just
flying by! The camp as a whole has really shown an amazing amount of unity. Campers
(along with counselors) have been having a blast! Monday started off with a
nice late brunch, so as to give everyone a little more rest in preparation for
the craziness that would ensue.. We then got to hear from Julie Barrett as she
shared a little about what God has been doing in her life and about the love of
God as a perfect Father. In the evening, campers were introduced to a new
all-camp game called Bonkers, which involved nylons full of flour and a bunch
of crazy stations that they had to complete. Keoni then spoke to us about the
importance of community.
Tuesday was our
day away, and we drove to the eastern part of Pictured Rocks to play on an
enormous sand dune called The Log Slide. After that we packed up and bussed
over to Miners Castle which was the starting point of a five mile hike to a
place called Sand Point. Once everyone made it to Sand Point, which is a
beautiful beach, a bunch of kids and counselors cooled off in Lake Superior and
enjoyed some hearty pasties for dinner. Taking advantage of the incredible
beauty surrounding us we had an amazing chapel time on the beach consisting of
singing, hearing a message about God’s incredible love for us and time to just sit and reflect before heading back to camp.
Wednesday was
another gorgeous day of sunny weather and the campers enjoyed hobo breakfast
out on the train tracks. We listened to two
more thought-provoking messages from Keoni about submission and suffering. We
finished the evening with a wild night game called Taken!
Thank you again for all your prayers
for campers and staff!
