Wow…This week went by so fast! At first I was completely overwhelmed by the amount of kids and how to fit the 5-Day Club program with the camp’s expectations but by the end of the week I had fallen in love with all of the kids and ended up having so much fun!

In total we had 69 kids at the camp and about 20 didn’t go to church. Neither Anja or I talked to any of the kids about accepting Christ but around 10 did accept Christ with their cabin leaders and I hope that the message we brought to them may have played a small part in their deciding to follow Jesus.

Because we only taught in the evenings and the mornings we got to spend quite a lot of time with the kids whether it was during meals or beach time and so many of the kids found a special place in my heart. They were so enthusiastic, whether it was to do lessons or memory verses, or their excitement for the stories. These kids made me smile all week long. Although, there were so many kids, I regret not getting to spend enough one-on-one time with them.

At the beginning of the week, I was anxious to go home and I didn’t want to be there due to the lack of confidence in myself but yesterday I was sad to leave.  I think God taught me that I don’t have to be perfect to make an impact on these kids lives.

Can’t wait for week 3!
