Soccer Camp 2021 wrapped up its final full day on Friday and it was a day to remember!
The campers began their daily routine of breakfast, then quiet time, then morning chapel services.
They started off the worship portion of the services with You Are Worthy of My Praise.
After the first song, Harry Neil had a special announcement. A young girl told her cabin and Harry that she had accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Savior the night before!
The news brought joy to the saints and gave them more energy as they lifted up their voices in worship while singing This is Amazing Grace, Open the Eyes of My Heart, and Lighthouse.
Harry asked the campers questions from the multiple messages they heard throughout the week from Rob Sullivan on King Josiah. The campers were able to reiterate much of the key points and themes.
The Josiah walk-thru that Rob introduced to the campers was something they were challenged to remember. A group of campers got up to recite it together, as has been the norm for the past few days.
The chapel services continued and ended with Rob's final recorded message. In the message he recapped much of what was spoken on earlier in the week.
After chapel services, the campers went to the soccer fields to play Dutch Futbol in place of their regularly scheduled time for skills training.
That was followed by lunch and rest, before things were switched up for the final day.
At 2:00pm the campers enjoyed their free time in place of their regularly scheduled Dutch Futbol session. During this time they also had the opportunity to visit the trading post.
The International Champion Matches between Brazil and Italy were held at 3:30pm. The golf carts came down to the soccer fields arrayed with international flags to the theme of Ole Ole Ole. Before the matches kicked off, the campers lined up for an introduction ceremony with flags and the two countries' national anthems.
The three divisions held multiple matches each over the course of the next few hours. During the matches, a cookout-style dinner was served in the fields.
The final event of the night was the annual campfire. The campers gathered together at the campfire by the lake for a time of sharing one another's testimony of how they came to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.
Tomorrow the campers will part ways to their respective homes after a wonderful week together in the Lord!
