Hello! We're well into our first full day of camp, and everyone seems to be having a wonderful time!

We got everyone registered yesterday, met our counselors and cabin mates, and completed our swim tests so that we can enjoy a break from the heat each day! We spent some time in worship last night and were introduced to our theme for the week which is "Big Feet - Following the Footsteps of Jesus." We'll talk about following Jesus as we love, as we serve, as we learn to pray, and as we forgive. Our theme verse for the week is 1 John 2:6. Excited to see all that we learn this week about following Jesus!

Today, we've been to our Bible classes, had chapel over-looking the lake, and participated in some fun team activities. Lunch was fried chicken, green beans, macaroni and cheese and pineapple! Yum!!

Now, everyone is resting in their cabins so we can be ready for all the fun planned for the afternoon! We'll get to swim in the pool again AND have our first time in the lagoon! The kids are excited about the 40 foot water slide, the trapeze, and the zip-line. It's gonna be great fun!

We've got lots of little "hams" in this session! The list of participants for "Fun Hour" - our nightly talent show - just keeps growing. They're singing, telling jokes, doing skits and showing us all kinds of fun gifts that God has given them!

Thank you for trusting us with your sweet ones this week! We're doing all we can to make sure that their time is fun and safe and that everyone is relaxed and having a good time. Thank you for your prayers for us! We'll do our best to keep you updated through this blog, but thank you for your patience as we are somewhat limited in our "free" time :) and in our internet access!

For the kids and for the Kingdom!
