This week is day camp. The day campers are given the option to spend Thursday night at camp. Almost all stayed here tonight. Since camp is now ending on Friday evening, the campfire service was tonight.
The chapel speaker had a prior commitment tonight so the activities director(?)not sure if that is his correct title spoke. He spoke on God's love & how it is shown. He focused on God's love is shown to us through His creation and through our family & friends. Throughout his devotional, he gave the campers the opportunity to share different ways God loves us. They also touched on ways our parents love us. One of the ways our parents love us is through discipline. An example given by one of the rowdier boys who was sitting on the back row was, "if your mom tells you not to use your dad's chainsaw you'd better not".
After the devotional ended, the campers were given an opportunity to share a favorite activity of camp. (The day campers campfire service is a little different than the overnight campers) Some of the activities shared were the zipline, bucking barrel, crafts, chapel, rest time, swimming. One little quiet boy sitting on the front row said the food was great. He especially loved the ham. And then going back to the example given about parents discipline, he said he ate that ham like a chainsaw eating wood. It was that good. We adults got a kick out of that (no pun intended).
