Boys Camp… Just a little late
When it’s been so long between blogs I always struggle with
what to say, or what to share.
Sometimes it feels like so much has happened that I don’t even know
where to start and sometime if feels like nothing has happened at all…
I guess I will start with the boys camp that we had in
November, which was forever ago I know, but I obviously procrastinated and
haven’t shared how it went and when I was in Canada over Christmas a lot of you
asked me about it.
Well it was an adventure. We only had about 12 boys, which was a nice small
group. I was really tired and worn
out by the time November rolled around, so it was perfect and a more relaxed
camp, well for the most part….
I went ahead with three other staff, well that was the plan
anyways, but the car we were in kept over heating and we kept having to pull
over and wait on the side of the road for it to cool down. So we got there a few hours after
everyone else arrived. I was so
thankful for great staff that was there with the kids that just stepped up and took
over while I was on the side of the road playing dominos waiting for the motor
to cool down.
Another boy asked me if I paid for all of them to come to
the camp and I told them that different people gave money so they could come
and he was like ”people I never even met gave money so I could come to camp,
wow, that’s awesome, when you see them make sure you say thank you.” So thank you very much, for making a
difference in these kids lives.
So the plan for camps this year (knowing that it’s still
early and that things can change) is,
Is June 30-July 1-Boys 8-10
July 2-3 Girls 8-10
July 7-10 Girls 11-13
July 11-13 Boys 11-13
July 14-16 Boys 14-18
October (not to sure on the exact dates) Girls 14-18
So please be praying for these camps, please be praying for
the staff and for the speakers, the speakers are always a little harder to
find. Also please be praying for a
spot to rent to do these camps.
Because of circumstances last year we do need to find another place to
rent. Also please be praying for the
vehicle we need for the camp, we are just over haft way to what we need to get
it.
Thanks again for your support and prayers. If you want to donate to the camp and
sponsor a kid to go please go to the MSC web page https://msccanada.org/give-now.html

Thanks so much
