Soccer campers enjoyed extended soccer on Tuesday evening and were able to get in all their playing time before a large thunderstorm swept through camp. Despite the thunderstorms the night before, the campers were blessed with what turned out to be a beautiful day.
They continued their routine of starting their day off with a hearty breakfast, followed by 45 minutes of quiet time to pray and reflect on God's word which has been shared with them this week.
The campers started to file back into the chapel for the morning service which began around 9:30am. Like on Tuesday, the worship time was live-streamed on Facebook. In addition, it was also live-streamed on our Instagram account. Be sure to tune in at the same time on either platforms for our Thursday and Friday services!
Since it poured the previous night and the main soccer fields were muddy, the campers were relocated to the basketball court and longhouse for their soccer drills. The skills focused on trapping, passing, and throwing.
The campers adapted to their new soccer locations well and were rewarded with a nicely prepared lunch, followed by some rest time.
The campers had some time at 2:00pm to visit the trading post before returning to their new soccer locations for Dutch Futbol.
At 3:30pm, the campers had an hour-and-a-half of free time. They enjoyed some swimming, canoeing, archery, fishing, and more!
The campers then enjoyed some chicken burritos for dinner and had another opportunity to visit the trading post.
In place of their evening soccer matches, the staff put together a scavenger hunt for the campers. The activity was well-received and resulted in some good-natured competition among the cabins.
In the end, it was the Apache cabin that was crowned winners!
Rob spoke with Ywa Hay Htoo from Oak Ridge Bible Chapel in Milan, Illinois. Ywa Hay, who is from the Karen tribe of Myanmar, shared his testimony of how he came to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Savior. His testimony can be viewed at our YouTube channel.
The campers also heard a message from Rob on King Josiah, which had the following three key points: God chases hard after His people, do what is right whether it is convenient or not, and repentance always brings about grace and intimacy with God.
The campers closed with Amazing Grace/My Chains Are Gone before heading to their cabins to get some well-deserved sleep.
