Another Wednesday has come and gone.
The highlight of the day (night) for the campers on this day is always Mission Impossible...they LOVE that game. And thankfully there were not many injuries (just one girl that fell into a cactus). The kids love the excitement of playing in the woods at night....they don't even mind being tied up....it's all about the staying up late and playing in the dark.
That's the campers highlight of the day....mine is what happened tonight after chapel, when about a dozen kids stayed behind after the message to talk with their counselors. I don't know what happened with each kid, if they accepted Christ or not, but I do know that no matter what, walls were broken down tonight and they stepped a little closer toward the open arms of a loving Savior. They had questions, concerns, hurts and needs.....and thankfully, our staff, through the Word of God, could help with those issues.
It has been a good week so far....not too many problems.....and there has been much "breaking through" with a lot of the campers. I sat in staff meeting and heard the counselors share the burdens of their cabins....and when I saw some of those campers stay behind tonight, it was such a moment of praise to my God.
Thank you Lord for your faithfulness to use your Word and these counselors and wranglers to meet the many needs of the campers here.....we look forward to seeing what the rest of the week holds for us!
