Day 1 of camp is winding down and I have to say that it was a blast! Once we arrived to camp, we immediately unloaded the buses, got in our swimsuits, and spent the next 2 hours going down the water slide & belly flopping off the diving board.
The next thing for the day was Opening Celebration where the kids participated in silly games, sang fun songs, met the camp staff, and found out who our bible study groups are. After we had our first bible study, it was off to dinner (the food was actually good!), and then our first worship service.
Tonight our worship theme was Treasure. Our camp pastor, Amy, talked to us about how God is the treasure we should be seeking. We learned that God wants us to be a part of God’s kingdom by sharing grace, hospitality, and love. Worship was a really great experience seeing kids lead in reading scripture and saying prayers!
After worship it was time for a Treasure Hunt Rec Party. During the Rec Party, we divided up into our bible study groups to compete in some awesome games like navigating through a maze with our eyes closed! It was a blast! We even had a cheer competition at the end of the Rec Party.
Now we are all winding down, getting our showers, and having our bedtime devotion. Today was so much fun and I can’t wait for tomorrow where we have our first full day of camp!
Check out the picture below of all of us at the Treasure Hunt Rec Party, and check back in the morning for a video of all the pictures of today’s adventure!
