Camps and StuffWednesday, July 16, 2008
Just got back from a week long camp in north Georgia. It was pretty good. But there was this incessant amount of hugging. Leaders hugging and crying with leaders, students hugging and crying with leaders, students hugging and crying with students. Well, you get the picture.
Maybe that is a normal camp experience? Back home for this week and then off to another camp on Sunday. I am pretty excited about this next camp. It is our very first AMiA camp. It will be small but I think it will be good. The most exciting part is we get an opportunity to infuse the DNA of the Anglican Mission into students and leaders. We will have speakers in the evening, great video, a great worship band, morning prayer and a 24 hour prayer room. The best part, though, is the fact that we all (speakers, band, leaders and students together) all get to go out during the day and DO the ministry. Some will go work with surfers...some with skaters...some with children....some may even build homes with a local Muslim youth group. This should be fun. Please pray for everything as you feel led.
