Lake Ann–Day #3

June 18, 2009 By: Ryan Category: Ministry Blogs

I thought I would take a moment and give you a glimpse into the world of the Middle School side of camp.  Between chapels, nature hikes, the flying squirrel and fizz wars, the middle schools are seen hanging around and getting to know new friends.

Chapels are great.  The middle school speaker is Tim Vine.  He is going through the New Testament using the Walk Thru the Bible curriculum.  It is a really good program that teaches students the Bible through catchy phrases and hand motions.

And by the way, our high schoolers had a talent show last night that Anna taped.  Look for that video to come out soon!

Lake Ann–Day #2

June 17, 2009 By: Ryan Category: Ministry Blogs

After a great night of rest our teens woke up excited about what the day had before them.  Day #2 mainly consists of continuing to get to know cabin mates and team mates.  They work on team building projects in attempt to learn how to trust each other more.

Most of our HS students had their first experience today paintballing.

But by far, the highlight of Day #2 for the Senior High campers is Fight Night.  Fight Night is just a chaotic time of crazy games and screaming.   It is absolute mayhem and absolute fun.

Oh, and as you can tell, Kevin has gotten in on the fun as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
