Camp clean up day was a few weekends ago, and I happened to snap a few photo’s.  Here are some of the people that love camp.

 What’s with that last photo you might ask?  Well that just might be a clue to something new at camp this summer.

We have all been participating well.  The girls have all been extraordinary.

How you can pray for our cabin:

That we will be able to strongly push through the end of this week and we will not just have an emotional high, but go home with changed hearts, even more in love with Jesus.  Also that we will live with integrity.  Please pray for the girls who are confused, that the Lord will replace the confusion with clear understanding and love for Him.

You can pray that our cabin devotions will be more serious.

We’ve had some good one-on-ones.  We’ve talked about how it’s hard to live out our faith at school and around friends.

How you can pray:

For clarity of the Gospel message and for changed priorities and values.  Pray that our actions would change and that we would stop justifying wrong actions.  Pray for difficult home lives.  Pray for campers to be clear on what salvation is, pray that Christ would reach those campers.

Built friendships, worshiped and learned from the chapels each morning and evening.  Played fun games-even a new one, “Ga-Ga Ball” in the rain.  We’ve laughed.  Laughed some more and really enjoyed getting to know each other through 1 on 1′s and activities together.

How you can pray:

Pray for unity among our cabin and for safety with the rain and all the activities.  Pray most of all for healing and love as we learn and feel how deep God’s love is for each of us and how to respond well to that.

Pray for unity as a cabin and that the girls would reach out to each other and include one another more.  Also that we would dig deeper into God’s word as a whole as a cabin.

Monday went really well.  We had beautiful weather so we were able to play plunger ball and 4-square for most of the afternoon.  Some one on ones happened-it was really great to re-connect considering 7 out of the 8 campers we had in the same cabin last year!  So it’s been great getting to re-connect with each other

Prayer is needed for some of the girls to really be able to feel how real, alive, and big Christ’s love is for them.  It’s also needed along the lines of friendships needing to be rekindled, hearts being softened and rededicated to Christ and just rest and energy staying at a high, especially for the staff.  I love my girls and I just pray I’m able to continue to show them that, as an overflow of Christ’s love for me!
