Beating the Heat

Beating the Heat

Beating the Heat
It was a restful weekend for the team these past few days. We were able to work at Love Inc, helping them run a garage sale in their parking lot on Thursday and Friday. The kids loved working with the wonderful staff and volunteers, as well as meeting many locals throughout the sale. It was a warm weekend, so we spent Saturday resting indoors, practicing our music, dramas, and puppets. All of the kids completed their verse reviews with all 40 of their summer memory verses! There was much relief, knowing that there were no more verses to learn before quizzing begins at debrief. They've been requesting to do verse quizzing for fun, and we spent some of our free time doing just that! They are having so much fun competing with one another in friendly quizzes as they learn God's word. On Sunday, the team was able to go hiking at a nearby nature preserve and see some of the natural beauty of the Snake River. We were also excited to celebrate Timothy's birthday on Sunday! Miss Lori couldn't help but continue the family tradition of making birthday aebleskivers for breakfast!  The team sang to him in four different languages as he blew out the candles on the chocolate mayonnaise cake that he requested (which is waaay better than it sounds! You should look it up!). They have all enjoyed coming home at the end of the day to escape the warm, sunny, Idaho weather with showers and air conditioning! This week, we plan on working with Love Inc on some outdoor projects in the cool of the morning, and then helping out at Caldwell First Baptist Church in the afternoons. Please continue to pray for good health and strength for the team! They all say they will miss Idaho, but are ready to see their families shortly! Pray that we will finish strong and continue to be used by God to bless the community!
Here are some of their answers when asked "What is your favorite part of the summer?"
Rebekah G. "My favorite part of the summer was bootcamp. And also working at the Warm Lake camp and visiting MAF. But bootcamp was my absolute favorite so far."
Bea E. "Hello people, my favorite part of this summer has been growing closer to God and learning to be flexible with what God has in plan for us. I also loved doing devos every morning and starting the day good. I also loved doing God's work here in Idaho. This summer has taught me so much, that I can't wait to come back next year. I also really loved sharing God's love with so many people. May God bless you."
Isaac B. "Flying on the plane to Boise and being at Warm Lake camp."
Abraham C. "Seeing new things in Idaho and learning many new things. And going home."


Hannah I. "My favorite part of the summer has probably been the ministries we've been a part of and the amount of work we've been able to accomplish for the church. I've loved to see my teammates grow in their relationship with the Lord and the impact we have had on the people around us."
Shelbi K. "My favorite part of the summer was being able to grow closer to the people in the community while getting to know them, while also learning about God and really getting to know the amazing people on my team."
Collin O. "My favorite part was the airport food and the sleep. And I really like the quizzing and the teaching."

Idaho

Our team is 21 strong. They got busy memorizing Scripture and helping one another get organized in their tents. We experienced our first rainstorm on Registration night, but everyone has had nice dry tents!! Orientation day went well as people got to know each other better. We ran the OC for the first time that day and learned a lot. Everyone had a lot of fun, and the formation of team unity has begun! Right now, we have 11 girls and 10 boys.

Greetings from the Lord's Boot Camp!

Over the last couple days, there has been a vast improvement in our teamwork! The kids are encouraging one another and working together to improve on the Obstacle Course each day. The kids have been taking block-laying, concrete, digging, and steel tying classes in the morning.

The Idaho team is doing well at boot camp...

This week we will start some new classes. Puppets and Advanced Evangelism are new to us on the schedule along with balloons.

Finishing Strong

Today is our last day of classes! The kids have been doing an amazing job on the obstacle course working together and avoiding disqualifications. Yesterday two of the leaders ran with them and they got 17 people over the wall!

The Idaho team arrived safely there

The Idaho team made it safe and sound last night!

Welcome to Warm Lake Camp

We arrived late Sunday night to Boise and got to the church around midnight. We let them sleep in until 8:00 and had a nice breakfast provided to us from a special lady at the church.

We are starting to settle into a routine of sorts here at Warm Lake Bible Camp.

A New Week Has Begun

Greetings from Idaho! It's been a relaxing weekend as we finished up our work week on Friday. The team did a wonderful job and made excellent progress on our brush clearing and wood removal projects on Friday. Even though some of the team wasn't feeling very well, everyone did their best and worked together well to help out those that were moving a little bit slower. By the end of work, everyone was ready for the fun and rest we had planned for the weekend!

Adventure in Idaho

What a week it has been so far! The kids are continuing to work hard on fire mitigation, while also preparing the cabins to be prepped and painted.

One more week at Camp

Wow! It is hard to believe that we have been on the field at Warm Lake Camp for two weeks already. Thursday we had a long work day after our day off of rafting. As we have been sharing during the campers Mission Hour, we are trying to show different aspects of Teen Missions that we use on the field.

Last Few Days at Camp


It is hard to believe that we have been at Warm Lake Bible Camp for almost three weeks now. The camp is looking amazing!

Welcome to Caldwell!

It's been a week full of change here in Idaho!

From the Heights to the Depths

This week, the team was able to experience many unexpected but wonderful things. With plans changing in regards to working with Mission Aviation Fellowship this week, we were able to do a sightseeing day on Tuesday

Finishing Strong

Our last week in Caldwell Idaho. Because we had been exposed to COVID our plans changed. This taught us so many things. Always trust in God's plan...Always be willing to do what is before you....have a joyful heart....let your plans go....
