A camping we will go


Tomorrow we head off to camp in Oulx!  I imagine the Alps will be boasting a bit more snow than seen in this picture taken in the summer of 2009, when were last there at the camp.  Jonathan is the speaker for the Easter youth camp.  Please be in prayer for our few days spent with about 25 youth.  Jonathan will be speaking five times on the topic of our new identity in Christ.  He also will be facilitating a film discussion night on the movie "Chariots of Fire."  The camp runs from Thursday to Monday, so it will be intense and no doubt a lot of fun!

Pray for our stamina, wisdom in our interactions and conversations with the youth, and that many hearts will be forever changed by what they hear from God's Word.

Today has been exhausting.  We have 3 very excited kids about today being their first day of Easter vacation.  3 very out of control balls of energy who can't wait to get to camp.  One mamma who is trying to pack, clean and get everyone ready for our time away while running sibling interferance every 5 minutes.  The day is almost over and the littles will soon be in bed.  Glad there will be lots of open space for their energies to be released tomorrow!  And I don't have to cook for 5 days!  Tired but so thankful for this opportunity ahead of us!
