Too Busy To Blog
I know it’s been almost a week since my last update, but there has just been no time to blog. Since our trip to the concentration camp we have…
- said goodbye to the team from Savannah, GA
- finished the time with the Holocaust Survivors and said goodbye to our new friends from Israel
- “flipped the camp” (aka lots of cleaning, preparing beds, etc.)
- welcomed a new team from Rhode Island
- planning and preparations for Ukrainian Children’s Camp
- welcomed 80 kids and leaders
- finished two very full days of camp
Our title of this camp is “New Me” – The Fruit of the Spirit with a garden theme I (Rachel) was privileged to teach the very first lesson, in which I introduced the theme and taught the first characteristic – LOVE. I made the kids recite the day’s memory verse (“We love because He first loved us.” 1 John 4:19), and they had to express love by giving me a hug, in order to leave the chapel for canteen. It might have been partially a selfish ploy to get a hug from every single one of these precious kids, but I’m not ashamed to admit it! 😉
One of my roles is to put together a picture video for the evening session, so even if I don’t have time to write much, I’ll at least share those. You’ll be able to see all the great things going on and pray over this week with us!
