Week 5 – Up, Up, and Away! – Thurs

 The junior campers have been learning about how Jesus is their Good Shepherd, and how they can turn all their worries over to Him and let go of them.

After watching a skit in chapel this morning showing how the Good Shepherd cares for his sheep, our campers were able to participate in another activity illustrating how they can give their cares and concerns to Jesus!

Each camper wrote a worry that they were struggling with on an index card, and after the morning chapel, workers tied these cards to helium balloons and allowed the campers to release them. Every child watched their concerns float away and up (symbolically, of course) to their Savior who cares for them.  It was a beautiful sight and a great lesson!
