Quest Camp... continued

I know I haven't finished my discussion on my experience at camp this year. There is still so much to tell. Our days at camp were a meer 7. That's it! Seven days to see God... It was the God channel... God all day every day! It was awesome!

Each day started with our time with God, showers, breakfast, and clean up. Once the slow part of the morning was over, then it was time for Worship LIVE. This was always a wonderful time filled with music galore! What a way to wake up in the morning! The singing was amazing!

We had morning messages after that. Each day was different and given by a different person. We learned about: The Father, The Son, The Holy Spirit, Holiness and Who Am I? After each morning message we had a reflection time. Each day was a little different. The day we learned about The Son there were cross stations around camp. We would go together in groups and learn by visually seeing what Jesus went through as he was crucified. Can you even imagine what He went through?

This was an experience that moved hearts! This was not just for the teens... the counselors were moved just as much by the same teachings.

Each day after our reflection time we had lunch then free time. Our lunches... well, they were a blast! This would be an understatement. How do you control 180 hungry teens and 40+ counselors and workers that would like to eat? You have to answer a question to get your table excused for a meal. Yep! The questions could be anything. Name that tune was always a great one. Then there were the questions about West Virginia... how funny is that? None of us are from there, except the camp leader! So that's how you control a mob of hungry people!

We always had some great music with our meals as well. Fun thing was when people would break out and dance or sing along with the music. There are a couple of videos from these meals. One is a blast... from Footloose... Devon was so funny, dancing just like Kevin Bacon! It was so much fun!

So, this is the first half of the day! So much already! We've been fed spiritually, physically and just having a great time!
