Soccer Camp 2024 Monday Recap

 Monday was our first full day of Soccer Camp! All were encouraged to wear their favorite club jerseys as Monday's theme was favorite club day.

The program staff began their day with a staff meeting and time of prayer. Everyone then made their way outside the dining room for the Soccer Camp flag raising before a breakfast of scrambled eggs, sausage, and potatoes.

The campers had some quiet time after breakfast followed by the morning chapel service. The worship consisted of How Great Thou Art, You Are Holy, and Blessed Be the Name of the Lord. The morning worship was streamed live on Camp Iroquoina's Facebook and Instagram accounts. You can expect livestreams each morning around 9:15am and during some evenings around 8:30pm. You can find our Facebook and Instagram accounts (along with our other social media accounts) at the bottom of this page.

During the chapel service, our speaker Joe Wilbur spoke on Genesis 27. We read how Issac blessed Jacob instead of Esau. Issac heard the voice of Jacob but was deceived because his other four senses led him to think it actually was Esau instead of Jacob. He went by his feelings and not the fact that he heard it was Jacob. Feelings can lie to you, but God never lies. The message tied in with our theme verse of Romans 10:17: "So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ."


After the morning chapel service, the campers went down to the soccer fields to practice dribbling, which was the skill of the day.


Lunch was served after the skills were completed. The campers had grilled cheese sandwiches and salad for lunch.




The campers had a time of rest following lunch and then began playing some Dutch Futbol. However, their time on the soccer fields was cut short by a storm which passed through camp. The campers were brought into the chapel barn where the younger ones played in the rec room downstairs, and the older ones watched Overcomer.


The movie lasted until dinner at which time the campers went to the dining room and enjoyed chicken, rice, beans, and plantains.

Following dinner, the campers made their way down to the soccer fields and caught up on some of the Dutch Futbol time they missed during the storm.


The campers met at the chapel at 8:00pm for the evening chapel service, where they sang Our God, Awesome God, Lion and the Lamb, Mighty to Save, and Goodness of God.


Once the singing concluded, Joe brought forth a message from Scripture that focused on the bad news of our sin and the good news of the Lord Jesus Christ.


"That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." - Romans 10:9
