Hello Friends,
Today was another scorcher and another day that the kids faced the barrage of reminders and opportunities to drink water. They seemed to enjoy it. Despite the heat, the campers had a blast today. I heard many compliments about archery from the kids. Outdoor sports played some crazy games that involved this thing called "sitting in the shade." Campers and counselors alike appreciated those. When campers weren't "putting space helmets on" or "zoom mooz" they ran around and screamed during "Screaming Yellow Zonkers" and "Thread the Needle." Schleef Encounters had the kids in the dining hall near the bubler playing tellestrations to the laughter of all. Danielle led Creation Encounters and the kids got to hold a six foot long boa constrictor. Don't worry, no campers were eaten or strangled but many were frightened and excited to hold the snake.
Psalm 86:15 But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness
For password, Leah had the Schleef brothers act as conjoined twins trying to open up a jar of sugar. Jason tried to do it himself, but couldn't without the help of Jared. In the same way we need God's help for our forgiveness. It is impossible for us to save ourselves. For devotion, Joel demonstrated that he had the problem of wanting to juggle and drink coffee at the same time. He needed the help of Juggling master Erin to juggle for him. Similar to the password, he talked about how we need help to overcome life's problems and God provides the help we need.
