First high school D-Camp of the summer!
This week was such a beautiful gift! Getting to spend time with all of the Campers during games, small groups, talks, and meals was such a blessing!
It Was amazing during Adoration to get to witness all of the unique ways God impacted each and every person that was a part of the camp, whether that was teens singing their heart out, tears welling up as they encountered God’s personal love, or the joy on their faces. It was such a blessing to see God transform the hearts of high schoolers when they were brave and vulnerable enough to get prayed over by the prayer teams and go to confession with tears streaming down their face when they encountered the Lord. Just really getting to see the Lord work in every kid was something we will never forget.
Small groups were another amazing aspect of camp. Getting to be on the leadership side of the groups was great, because we were able to meet everyone where they were at, the quieter kids, the excited kids, the nervous kids, and help them all pick a part feelings, discuss talks and why they were impactful and meaningful, and just helping to remind them of the goodness of God. The positive peer pressure was really great to see, how one high schooler on fire with love for the Lordwould be instrumental in showing other peers that they could not just have but express their love for God. Nobody wanted to go too deep too quickly, but they were calling each other to dig deeper and get to the meat and potatoes of why we were there and what we could get out of it.
Overall it was such a great experience and we’re incredibly excited for the D-Camps to come!
