Last Day From Cross Camp
Winding Things Down
It is Friday afternoon and all the kids are at freetime. We've had a great week here at Cross Camp. I believe that God has been able to do something in the live of all of us. It is my prayer that whatever God has done in each of our lives will be lasting.
Mending Broken Lives
Last night during the worship service and our church devotion time, we focused on the relationships we have with one another in the body of Christ. We are a community of faith. We are to care for one another and support one another. When things get out of balance, as with a disagreement, we are to make it right with one another. Last night was an opporunity to do that. Annette Ford did an interesting thing as part of our devotion. She gave each of us a sock. Not one of those little short dress socks, but one of those long sport socks. We put if on our arm and it looked like a cast, as if we had a broken arm. Then were went around the room and wrote something on each other's "cast." Something positive, something that would affirm. It was a very special and a very affirming time for all of us.
We have one more night of worship and another church devotion time. I'm really looking forward to it to see what God is going to do. I hope all who are reading this will pray for us and God is able to do something really special in our presence.
Traveling Tomorrow (Saturday)
Please be in prayer for us as we travel tomorrow as we head home. We should be home shortly after noon. May God's hand be upon us. We've been praying for you all back home also. We look forward to seeing you all once again. Until then, may God bless each one of us.
