Youth Camp

We had an AWESOME week at camp!  Thank you so much for all of your prayers leading up to camp and during camp!  It was such a blessing to have the team here from Eastview Wesleyan in Gas City, Indiana.  Mark was our camp speaker and did a wonderful job.  He talked to us about Pharaoh in Exodus 8 when he chose to spend one more night with the frogs rather than getting rid of the frog plague.  He related it to how sometimes we get "comfortable" in our sins and choose to spend "one more night with the frogs" instead of working on the sin that is messing up our lives.  He then encouraged the kids by talking about how God can use them no matter how "small" they are.  The kids were very challenged and we saw some very positive  growth in our youth!  

The other 3 from the American team helped lead activities and small groups.  The kids LOVED having them here and we appreciate all of their help.  Sean did an awesome job leading the activities.  It has been really exciting to see Sean grow in his role as a leader and he is doing such a great job.  He lost his voice by the end of camp from talking so much!  

Please continue to pray for the youth and any commitments that were made at camp!  Below are a few pictures from camp!


This is a game called electricity.  The kids got to pour water on each other.  It was a great time!

Tug-o-war!  The rope was oiled up and there was a tarp in the middle that was covered in oil and water
