Second Day of Kids Camp

Today was funner than yesterday!

The first picture is a picture of Pastor John's boys that he is counseling. They are totally pumped up for church. The second pic is of Pastor John receiving an outpouring. The message was about the Holy Spirit and His power. God wants to pour out his power into your life to live for him glorify him and witness for him. They illustrated God's outpouring by pouring a whole bottle of water over Pastor John's head, and making him ask for it, and wait for it a long time.

Here are some highlights.
1. The food is great. No hungry kids.
2. The weather is HOT! There are huge ice water containers out all over for kids to get drinks and they are used quickly.
3. Our kids are getting good at the blob. I will try to post some blob video or pics.
4. I had my first "save" as a life guard today. A boy jumped in the deep end without completing the swim test. We have six life guards on duty at one time for boys and six for girls. One of the male guards is also a paramedic. So, we have the bases covered and then covered again.
5. Our kids stayed at the altar and prayed and waited on God. We definitely need to work on teaching our kids to pray. Some of them have no idea how to pray. Not that there are a lot of rules, or some mantra that must be learned to talk to God. Its just that they are uncomfortable praying. They need prayer practice. They need plain old God time. Mom and Dad, pray with your kids. They need to hear your ad-lib prayers. Then let them pray out loud and you listen. Eventually you will hear them become great prayer warriors for God.

Have a great day tomorrow. It is 11:00 p.m. I think I am going to go play some B-Ball with the teen workers now.
