Dear Prayer Partners,


We just completed our 2nd day of camp ... wow, what another great day! The kids (and counselors) are finally getting into the rhythm of camp.


Continue to pray for the kids as they start to develop strong bonds with their counselors and get more and more comfortable with the daily schedule.


Here are some fun stories from our scribe at camp:


Dear God, 

Today was the best! Thank you so much for all of my counselor and all of my new friends here at camp! During Kid's Club we were reminded that God is trustworthy even when things are hard. I got to say those words to help my friend Justice find courage to slide down the slide into the pond. She looked really nervous, and she kept saying she didn't want to do it, but she did it! Thank you for helping her go down the slide! I am so proud of her! I'll talk to you tomorrow. Good night!

In Jesus' name, Amen.


Dear God, 

I did it! I was so brave and overcame a big fear today! With the encouragement and reminder from my new friend Kelly, I was able to go down the slide on the trampoline at the pond. God, I was so scared, but she reminded me that I can trust in YOU when things are scary. I remembered that thought, closed my eyes tight, and slid down the slide! Thank you for helping me feel safe. You are my best friend. I love you!

In Jesus' name, Amen.


Dear God, 

Hello, it's me, Amber. I just want to give you a big hug and say thank you for bringing me back to camp this year. It's even better, because I get to see all of my friends from last year, eat really good food (tacos) in the dining hall, and sing songs in chapel that we learned last year! I just felt super cool knowing the hand movements to the song "My God". You are so nice to bring all of these people together to have fun and spend time with you. Thanks, again!

In Jesus' name, Amen.


Blessings,


Darren
