The last day of camp has arrived. Camp sure goes by fast. It
just seems like yesterday we were welcoming campers and playing Midgett
madness. As with each day this week, we had a cool night and woke up to a cool
morning; however, the temperature quickly rose by mid morning.
We went through our morning routine one more time.
Breakfast, flag raising with the flag talk given by Jeff Wilson, and cabin
cleaning.
Today a part of the morning devotional was led by Drake
Akin's cabin.
The study today moved to Scene 5: God empowers man to walk
with him. Russ led the study for the older campers and Sherry Murray led the
study for the younger campers. They talked about how we are called to be a part
of God's story, that now that God came to earth and walked with us, that we are
now empowered to walk with God. God desires for us to be part of a collection
of people that walk with him.
The golden broom was given to Lauren Bean/Sara Moran's cabin
for the girls and Drake Akin's cabin for the boys.
Activities this afternoon were sweetheart kickball for the
younger campers and a hike to buzzard's roost for the older campers.
Tonight is the night many parents join use to witness the
championship ball games, and to witness the baptisms of those who are committing
their lives to Jesus. All the campers enjoyed the final softball and volley
ball games today.
Tonight is awards night. There are awards given in a number
of categories to each camper such as "Can't catch a break in
athletics". The awards are enjoyable to see.
After a devotional time, we went to a beautiful spot in the
park to witness the baptisms of eight people. The ones baptized were Mark
Hager, Courtney Hinton, Luke Lineville, Gabrielle Burke, Abigail King, Elise
Lovell, Ramey Keopf, and Chole Young. We
returned to camp for some devotional time in the B lodge to end our last day at
camp.
Tomorrow we will leave the park and go to church Sunday for
the last camp activity.
