Summer Day Fun


Yesterday the temperature creped over 100 degrees, and so when the Lord provides warm temperatures, water, and balloons……

We had a great time with our Lakota friends cooling off with water balloons, water soaked sponges, and squirt guns.   The smiles on everyone’s faces would have been great to share but no one was brave enough to bring out a camera for fear it would get soaked.  We finished camp a little early and came back to the church in Sharps Corner to enjoy a movie and some popcorn in the air-conditioned sanctuary.  

After supper most of our team went over to the basketball court again.  Each night we go we seem to have more show up.  The guys all keep enjoying a good game of basketball and everyone else is playing with the children or playing volleyball. We had thought the volleyball poles and net from last year had been stolen, only to return last night to find a family setting them up! They had been keeping them to make sure they weren’t stolen or mistreated. God continues to challenge our assumptions and expectations!

Today one of the girls we have been enjoying time with at the park came to the camp and we were able to share the gospel with her as a result.  This is yet another example of our goal to not only share our lives, but the gospel as well (I Thes 2:8).




Please continue to pray for good weather, the safety of our group and the campers, and that we will be given opportunities to share the Gospel.  God has been so good to us and we thank you for your prayers!
