Last night we had our first teen-girls egg war! At first the girls didn’t know quite what to expect. We used 40 dozen eggs and we ended up with most of the girls ready for showers afterwards. The only casualty was a counselor and 2 campers who found a bee hive in the woods and consequently bee stings. Please pray those will heal quickly. Tonight is our late night swim and smoothies are provided as refreshment. Pray for no lightning to spoil our fun.
Last night at chapel the air conditioning quit working and it was extremely hot during the teaching time. Praise God it has since been fixed! You never know what the evil one might try to use to disrupt God’s Word from being spoken! The girls were very patient.
We learned that one of the men from The Farm left the Christian Life Program. Please pray God will protect him and lead him to another group of believers.
Pray for wisdom for the counselors as the campers are asking a LOT of hard questions. Specifically from our counselors:
C - Seriousness during devotions/camp out was fun last night.
M - Wisdom during devotionals for tough questions being asked/renewed energy for today.
R - Campers worth to be found in God, ability to point the girls to Jesus, give my all, Christ increase, I decrease.
C - To be militant about speaking truth into scary places in the girls’ lives.
L - That God’s Word really begins to penetrate their hearts and to really process and apply what they are learning.
L - Maintain enthusiasm, remember to pray continually and, pray for forgetfulness of camper/campers bonding and caring about camp more.
M - Wisdom and strength to love no matter what/ camper that has been struggling remembered her memory verses!
R - Able to be equipped and have Spirit filled conversations with campers/ campers are getting along better and including a camper who had been an “outcast”.
S - Campers’ hearts will be opened and they will allow the Lord to dig deeper/ the girls are amazing!
M - Continue being healed, camper that doesn’t know or believe in God will be more open to learn about Him, devotionals are clear and easy to understand for all campers.

Thank you for your prayers! We couldn’t do it without you upholding us!
