Parting Shot

So we had a full day on Thursday! After our morning game times, devotions with each other, morning service, and lunch we started getting ready for the day. Some of the group headed out for some paintball (the whole group originally was going to go, but then got scared when they realized they might get shot) and the rest of the group started prepping for our flour fight! That's right, I said flour fight. In case you don't know, a flour fight is when everyone gets soaked, then gets their own bag of flour. We say go, and it's every man for himself reaching in the bag pulling out heaps of flour and throwing it at everyone else. Don't worry, I captured alot of this on tape, so you'll get to see some of it.

After dinner we got ready for the evening service which was very powerful and went an incredible 4 hours! Our students were ready to keep singing at the end even! It just goes to show you that teenagers will listen and participate! We had a great time as a church sharing decisions and burdens. For some of these students, they were able to get some stuff off of their chest that had been burdening them for years and hadn't spoken out loud. What a great thing to share the load of your burdens with Jesus and with other Christians!

After our car ride home, we made it safe. This camp proved to be what we hoped it would...a catalyst for our students to begin taking their relationship with God for real! Now they're ready to put it into practice! Let's make sure as a church to come alongside of them and help them along with their journey! Thanks for praying! Thanks for supporting!
