Good Morning!

It was another cool night, perfect for sleeping.  This morning there was heavy dew and sunshine.  Counselor Charles squeegeed the benches in front of the stage and everything was clean and dry for morning worship.

Yesterday was the first full day at camp, and campers are in the rotation of things.  In the morning, campers participated in a handful of musical activities: grums (guitar and drums), handbells, the musical, chimes, and the choir.

The afternoon was just as busy, as campers began preparing for the final performance.

There was no shortage of activities.  Campers could  swim, make cool stuff (there were a lot of flower crowns) in Arts & Crafts, Dance!, visit the goats (the goat squad), play basketball and other sports, and gaga (a perennial favorite), as well as BOARD GAMES (Operation!  Bananagrams!  Mancala!  Candyland!).

We had a roaring fire tonight (the wood had dried out from the night before).  All in all it was a successful first day.

Today, we started with our usual morning worship.  Our theme?  "We don't work alone."  Our skit reminded us that it's OK to ask for help.  And although we might not always know what we want, or to show that we can't do something, help is there if we listen and watch for God to work in our lives.

"Calling the Twelve to him, he began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over impure thoughts." Mark 6:7

Tonight is skit night.  Look for tomorrow's recap.
