Our Camp in Review!

So...this is a few days late, and by "a few", of course I mean a week! My bad...Anyways, after months of praying and writing, and weeks of planning and gathering supplies, the week came of no sleep and early mornings! Praise the Lord for Go-Girls! Janet, the other writer of our VBS curriculum (and not to mention my Best Friend) came down for the week to speak and lend her logical thinking- cause let's face it, that just isn't my strong suit! Our hope for the week was that children would develop a passion for powerful prayer and a heart for missions, and that they would begin to understand that God has a plan and purpose for them! And after the week was over, we asked the kids what God had taught them, and they all said something along these lines! 
It is so incredible when you see a dream that God gives you come to pass!

The stairs up to the "Gadget Garage" (Craft Room) was lined with glow sticks and lasers also!
"And the Good News about Heaven will be told to everyone, all over, so that all nations will hear it." Matthew 24:14

Prayer flag banner, the kids each wrote one for missionaries around the world.


Janet and I with the VBS leaders- all of who were in the 6th-9th grades.

God completely exceeded our expectations, of course, and blessed this endeavor more than we could've even imagined! We had no problems or injuries, more kids every day, and the Sunday after I had three girls come up to me and tell me how they're raising money to support a missions organization and want to talk to families in the church to partner with them financially and through prayer!

Life Lesson: When God is for you, nothing can stand against you
And it's so wonderful to see this in action! 
Ask God what He really wants, because He will use those who have a willing heart.
Love.
