Mid-Day on Day 2...

As the afternoon has come and almost gone, I reflect on another great day here at camp. We began our first full day at 7am with a great breakfast. I was happy to see almost all of the students already at the cafeteria when Jordan and I arrived. Most looked well rested.

Our TAG (Time Alone with God) time today was about taking responsibility for our sins, and not disguising them with lies, like the sluggard who said he shouldn't go outside because there was a lion in the streets, when he was really just lazy. We are also reading through the Psalms of Ascents and 2 Peter. After morning worship at 9, followed by our workshops, the students headed out to soapy tarp day.

There was a lot of intense competition, but blue bolstered by the arrival of their second leader, Moriah Huff, led the way to victory with 1st place after 1st place finish, including victories in the tug of war and the refrigerator box relay. But the other teams still aren't far behind. Blue may be in first, but there is a lot of camp left to go.

Please pray for us tonight as Trevor continues his teaching through 1 Samuel 17. Pray for the unbelievers here at camp, for those that are apathetic about their faith, and really for all of us to be strengthened in our relationship with Christ. You can also be praying for physical healing for a few of our students who have gotten sick. You all are as much a part of making this week a success through your prayers as we leaders who are up here. Thank you for your support.

I'll leave you with a few pics of the day so far. Remember, if I see you commenting, I'll do my best to post pictures of your kids. That's it for now...

Dwayne - I saw what you wore on the soapy tarp. Never wear that again.
