Check out this website. They were hear in St. Paul today and I saw them on Kare 11 news. What do you think about their cause and what they are doing?

Camp Perkins Trip!

We had an AWESOME time out in Idaho and wish more of you could've joined us for the fun!

Everyone did Sailing Camp, where they got to learn how to sail sunfish boats. By the second day, they were already out on the water without a counselor. Here you can see Sarah and Aarica sailing!

One evening, the all camp activity was Mud Football! They also had the opportunity to swim or canoe, but most took part in this fun game!

Camp's rope swing is brand new! They had only had it for a couple weeks - not even the entire summer, but our week got to use it and had a blast!

Here you see the rock climbing wall as someone is nearing the very top. I believe it is about 30-40 feet tall and has 3 sides (easy, medium, and hard).

In the morning we had a lovely introduction provided by the counselors. They introduced the theme for the day before sending everyone to Bible study. We met a lot of interesting characters. During this skit, we met Hans, Thug Money, Robert Rooster, Mrs. Chuck Norris, and a rather ditzy gal. These skits were informative, but also absolutely hilarious!

And of course, every day was spent in God's Word, since that's why we were there. In everything that was done, the counselors are very intentional about talking about Christ.

These two pictures were taken just north of Camp Perkins at Red Fish Lake. On Friday, after camp, we had extra time to do some sightseeing!

On the ride home, Aarica, Sarah, and Paul got to have their picture in the cockpit.

It was an amazing trip and I hope that more of you can join us if we go again!

Serving Sawyer Servant Event!

In June, the senior high had the opportunity to attend a servant event at Camp Luther. We didn't spend much time there because we went to Sawyer, MI from there! We led a 3-day VBS, a youth night, and did landscaping projects for a church in an impoverished, abandoned air force base. It was an amazing experience and fun to watch the young men who attended grow so much! We joined together with groups from Ohio and Indiana. In the first picture, you can see all of the groups involved in the project!





We didn't just work - we also went to Lake Superior where we went swimming, visited a lighthouse after crawling over millions of rocks, and had our evening devotions in a gazebo while watching the sunset! It was awesome!
