Second Day of FUN!!!

Today was the second day of camp for the kids. We woke up this morning to a warm breakfast that gave us some much needed energy to start our day. Then the kids headed off to their morning quiet times with their staffers and then we met in the chapel for our Sonrise service of praise and worship to our heavenly father. Kids then spent time in bible study where they learned about what missionaries are and how they can share the love of Jesus with others. Then the action began with team activities up at the softball field. Today we played fun-filled games of wacky ball and pillow polo, where every kid cheered on their team with everything they had and gave it their all in both games. The red team ended up winning the spirit flag today. We then headed to lunch for some much needed refilling where we had hamburgers and french fries. Soon after, it was time for our first day of the Peanut Patch Olympics, where each kid had a chance to go around to different game stations such as football toss, basketball, and good mitten to try and score their team points. After the olympics, kids headed down to the lake for swimming, which gave them a chance to cool off from the day's heat and just have fun with their friends. Then it was time for supper and then the evening chapel service, where Bro. Frank talked to us about the Handful of Theology and how we should each remember these basic elements of being a Christian. Tonight was movie night for the kids, where we watched a movie called "The Big Money Mixup" which gave the kids the opportunity to wind down before they were sent to their cabins to do their nightly devotions and get some much needed rest for the excitement that God has prepared for us tomorrow. I think all the kids enjoyed spending time getting to know each other and all the new staffers today, and I cannot wait to see what God has in store for us throughout the rest of this week.
Good Night and God Bless,
Lauren
