Here are the campers in one of their sessions. There were about 150 altogether.
Here are the main leaders of the camp. The guy on the right in the yellow t-shirt is one of the UNIFAM pastors. What a fabulous job they did.
This was our classroom! Actually it looks out over the ocean as well!
This is one of our classes. We taught 3 workshops and if you know us well then it will come as no surprise that we used quite a bit of drama. The camp was all about being a conqueror - first and foremost having our lives conquered by Christ and then conquering failure in different areas and by different means.
There were 4 groups so we weren't the only ones giving workshops. There was also a visiting speaker and there were counsellors assigned to small groups of about 15 kids. When we weren't preparing or giving a class we were free to do as we liked. There was plenty of help and so it was actually refreshing for us to be able to spend some time together. We were often glad not to be running around doing the activities the kids were in the incredible heat. It was also a nice chance to catch up with a couple of the pastors' wives who were around as well.Here are the groups that responded to the invitation in the final session. The kids on the right indicated that they felt God was calling them to be missionaries at home or abroad. The group on the left indicated that they were asking God to give them direction and a vision for their lives. In the testimony time the evening before some of those who had been invited to the camp by friends who go to church shared that they had trusted Christ for salvation. One guy from La Loma shared that he had decided he was giving up drugs once and for all.
These are exciting stories. Please pray that the impact of this time will stay with the kids as they return to their homes and normal life.
