Back from camp 2011

yes we have made it back from Teen camp in Colorado!

It was an amazing, rainy, sunny, testing, wonderful week!
So i do not have any pictures yet but i will post some soon.  (We had a professional photographer at camp this year so i am waiting on all her awesome pictures!)     :)

Camp helped AJ and I get to know the teens a lot better.  We were counselors for the week and spent tons of one-on-one time with the teens in our group.  Our theme for the weeks chapel services was "Not a Fan...but a Follower"  Many commitments were made and many lives changed.  Pray for God to continue to to work in these teens lives as they are home now and realizing how hard it is to live out there new commitments.

The week also consisted of lots of team building activities, horse back riding, hiking, group games, tubing down the river.  Generally everyone had good attitudes and a good week! 

Thanks for your prayers!!! They make the difference!  Pictures coming soon!

Week of recovery...

This week has flown by and yet been relaxing compared to the last two weeks of VBS.  Thank you for your prayers!  We not only survived but had fun doing it!
These songs got stuck in your head for hours!



Art time, painting frames with class pictures.

Preparing to leave for teen camp in Colorado this Sunday! 
Please pray for this trip, taking 40 teens in a bus for 8 hours...should be entertaining.
Pray for opportunities to connect and reach these teens!
