2nd Week of Sports & Arts Camp

Wow, what a week. The past week was definitely intense, we went from a high of 30 youth last week to 50 at sports camp this week and the number of leaders we had decreased by a significant amount. So, as I was saying it was an intense week. We continue to show God's love to the youth through sports and arts, here are some photos from the past 2 weeks.

First week of Ambridge Sports and Arts Camp

Wow, the summer is here and its hot. We have a great staff this week, they have come together so fast and the only sad part is that some of them aren't going to be around all summer. The youth have been great too, picking up on soccer and with all the different physical art they are being challenged with.

My favorite part of this week so far was the return of a family of campers who attended camp back when we started in 2004. It was great to see them and the oldest actually help lead a station. That was a blessing, I hope we can stay connected to them through out the summer and during the school year.

Last night I spoke with our team about our passions, that is our theme for the summer with the team. We are trying to uncover our passions that have been covered up, forgotten and pushed down by our culture's expectations. Pray for us as we walk thought the summer together.
