Another Great Week Underway!

This week is off to a fantastic start. We have a fairly large group of kids at camp this week, especially through Wednesday when our half-week Tiger Camp heads home. Campers are 3rd-6th grade, and we have a lot of first timers.

Among the activities from yesterday were Bible study, swimming, creek discovery, recreation with the LIT's, and nature study. The temperatures are high, but the aren't slowing us down. Every camper has a water bottle and we have water coolers outside both dormitories.

Monday's theme was "Jesus Listens". The scripture is Mark 10:46-52. "46 They came to Jericho. As he and his disciples and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, Bartimaeus son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the roadside. 47When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout out and say, ‘Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!’ 48Many sternly ordered him to be quiet, but he cried out even more loudly, ‘Son of David, have mercy on me!’ 49Jesus stood still and said, ‘Call him here.’ And they called the blind man, saying to him, ‘Take heart; get up, he is calling you.’ 50So throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus. 51Then Jesus said to him, ‘What do you want me to do for you?’ The blind man said to him, ‘My teacher, let me see again.’ 52Jesus said to him, ‘Go; your faith has made you well.’ Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the way."

Here are a few pictures from Monday:
