Dear Prayer Partners,

We just completed a FULL day of camp - whew!!! We made it. Tuesdays can be long but they are packed with lots of fun and smiles all day long.

Oh, and can we take a moment to say "Thank you Lord" for the weather. The weather yesterday and today has been incredible, even at times feeling a cool breeze on our faces. We'll take it! :)

Tomorrow is an exciting day. It's Everyone's Birthday so we will be celebrating all day long, culminating with a big time birthday party. We will have snow cones, popcorn, bounce houses, dancing and so much more. It's arguably one of our favorite days at camp.

Thanks for your prayers.

Here's a great story from our scribe:

Some of Jesus’ favorite people were fishermen. Just try eavesdropping at the fishing pond, and you can certainly see why. It’s not only a place for fish bites, you’ll catch some amusing sound bites as well. Lots of laughs and celebrations can be heard around this popular spot.

“I kissed my fish a bunch of times!” Jessica proudly declared. “Those fish are floppy!” observed Aubrey. Christopher bragged, “I’m gonna catch a fish with my bare

hands!” “I like fishing, but I don’t like touching them,” Caleb confessed. A concerned Rashawna said, “I want to throw him back in the water fast so he can live.”

This fishing business is not something our kiddos will forget anytime soon. But can an activity as simple as learning to fish change a life? Just ask Jesus.

Blessings,

Darren

p.s. Tomorrow, we will have a group of volunteers coming out to help with the birthday party. Pray for their safety!
