Last Few Days at Camp

Last Few Days at Camp

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!  We found more vegetation to remove this week and also have finished up some small projects.  The kids built a Gaga Ball pit this week, which is a huge hit with middle schoolers.  It is an octagon shaped area with plywood sides and the kids play dodgeball inside.  Organized amazing fun chaos.....We have also finished up repainting one of the girls' cabins and will have a second cabin finished up by Friday.  Yesterday we were able to do some needed maintenance on the chapel building.  We scraped and painted the wall that had sun damage on it.  
The kids are preparing for a puppet presentation this morning for Mission Hour.  We are doing the same program we did last week for the high schoolers, this week for the middle schoolers.  The campers are enjoying it and asking lots of good questions.   
This week has been a growing week for many as our projects are coming to an end.  As they grow closer together, there are more opportunities for disagreements and then growth learning how to work through the issues.  Our girls/guys classes are going well and we are learning what it means to have our identity rooted in Christ.
Saturday we will get up and help clean up the camp before heading to Caldwell, Idaho to get ready for our time with Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF), and Love Inc.  The kids are excited for new opportunities and to see more of Idaho as we switch the physical location of our mission.
Trace H. "Idaho has continued to open doors for our team. A nice place to stay has been secured for the time we serve at MAF and Love Inc. And I thank God that we were able to bless the campers and care takers at Warm Lake Camp the way we have been. We have exceeded their expectations, and will continue to work while we stay here."
Nicole C. "I have found new motivation for waking up in the morning! Yummy hot cocoa. It's SO good! And day by day the air is feeling less cold. I'm doing really good right now! I hope God protects my family and friends."
Caitlyn O. "Every morning, I look forward for the coffee. Work has been easier thankfully."
Bridget H. "Camp has been great. We are wrapping up with several smaller work projects. The people are so nice, and I sincerely hope that they can see Christ glorified through our work."
Timothy S. "My team devos was, well... interesting. It went well. The three weeks at Warm Lake Camp were fun. Can't wait til MAF."
Sam K. "I'm doing fine I think. Smoke is in the area, but all is well. We did something really fun last Saturday; tubing! A tube was attached to a boat which pulled us across waves. It was very fun!"
Alayna N. "So I'm doing great! We have painted and done brush. The mountains are pretty. We go to a new area on Saturday, not the camp, maybe easier work."

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.

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

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.

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....
