Varsity Camp Saturday / Sunday Update :)


Varsity camp is up and running! The campers all arrived Saturday and checked in... in record time! It was an absolutely gorgeous day, so most of camp was ready to hit the water for the swim test. After the swim test and going over some camp rules, everyone enjoyed a delicious cookout down by the lake, followed by some crazy games designed to help campers get to know each other. The games ended with everybody completely covered in mud… but thankfully a fire truck was nearby to hose everyone off before they jumped in the lake to cool down. After that, everyone was introduced to the staff members and headed back to their cabins.

Sunday was another beautiful day and campers enjoyed their first two chapel times and activity session. Our speaker Keoni began his talks on 1 Peter and our true Identity as God’s children. The campers also participated in their first team game and the whole camp had a wild time playing the varsity version of capture the flag, “The Yooper Games”.

As you pray for our time here, please pray that kids and counselors continue to build relationships and that everyone here really responds to what God places on each persons heart. Also, with the extremely warm temperatures, you can pray for camper/counselor safety and health. -Don’t worry, we’ll be making everybody drink as much water as we possibly can and lathering on the sun-block super thick ;)

Thank you all for your prayers for campers and staff, it’s looking like it’ll be an awesome week!
