The Last Couple Days






It's been hard to blog the last couple of days for a couple of reasons- we are super busy and the wifi is not consistent. At this stage of the camp the music is coming along just fine and the students are being challenged spiritually and physically.

Yesterday we started rehearsing with a band of students running through songs for the concert.  Truly amazing considering that many students are picking up these instruments for the first time!  Despite fighting a cold, I've been working with the vocal soloists at camp.  It's been fun coaching them- just wish I had my voice.

The day before yesterday we had our survival day in which students were split into team and set out in the surrounding area with challenges in the forest and towns.  Teams covered 12 miles in the survival journey and came back to camp for dinner that they had to prepare themselves.  The time wasn't just a physical challenge but it gave opportunities to build deeper relationships as discussions were great out on the course.

Last night was the gospel night in which students were given the opportunity to respond to the message and a prayer labyrinth that followed to wrap up the evening.  I haven't heard a report yet because it is early morning now as I write this before our team morning devotion.  Please pray for the students as a good number of them truly are seeking.  Pray also for our team and the students as a number of us are fighting colds.  Pray that the Lord would restore our health.
