The High Ropes Cable Course

 Unfortunately my battery died and I was only able to snap these two pics from the High Ropes Cable Course!!  This was a bummer because Brittney, Regina, Brooklyn and I also went in the same group as Melissa. I was so proud of some of these girls for doing the coursel--it takes nerve to do it and some of them had been nervous to do some of the other activities where heights were involved. It was really fun though and I'm pretty sure most of our teens did this one!

The Cabins

 Each camper gets part of the cubbie/drawer space. This is pretty nice--I'm pretty sure when I went to summer camp as a kid we kept our things in our suitcase all week, tucked under the musty mattress we were sleeping on!!
 This is what the bunk looks like. Each bed has it's own lamp which is very nice.
This is the view into the room from the door. To the right is the bathroom/showers and to the left are some more bunks. Here's my little people watching Frozen on the computer to keep them busy while I repack all of our things and tidy up our cabin.

Family Reunion

 This afternoon the staff built in a "family reunion" time into the schedule. This is where each group of kids gets back together with their youth pastor and has a time to recap, give testimonies, and share from the Bible what God has been teaching them this week. Then they often do something fun as a group--ours chose sand volleyball. I don't remember who won but they had a good time of fellowship and competition too!




Each day the kids are slotted with a "God & I Time" to spend some time in the word. They were given little booklets at the beginning of the week to help them with their study content. Then a bit later in the morning the cabins meet with their counselors for a "God & I Time Follow-Up" so the counselors can help them understand anything they are struggling with and give them further spiritual guidance. These kids are getting saturated with some great Biblical truths this week and are being fully equipped to take the next spiritual step in their lives!
