Youth Camp Report 2

As I said in my previous post I enjoyed Youth Camp! God really spoke to me this week and I enjoyed fun times with the teenagers! While my dear husband and I were at the beach Little Belle enjoyed the week at her GiGi’s house and was spoiled by my entire family!

 

I learned many lessons on this trip!

 

  1.  Showering is not a priority for middle school boys and they think spraying a bottle of Acts cologne covers a large array of smells.
  2. I miss teaching the youth! I taught 11th and 12th grade girl’s Sunday school for years but decided to take a break last year. After teaching the small group I realized I miss teaching. I’m seeking God’s will for how/what/when to teach again.
  3. Some 15 year old girls still eat baby food!
  4. It’s not cool to layout under the gazebo while at the Beach. “Heather, what are you doing?” “You might as well have stayed in the room”
  5. A disco light in worship can actually be cool!
  6. I can no longer stay up past midnight. My body crashes!
  7. I can no longer eat junk food for an entire week and gain no weight ( even with exercise)
  8. God doesn’t just want to be on my top shelf he wants the throne above the shelf!
  9. I am officially old because …….the entire week I was thinking about what an awesome Condo we were staying in and how “when I was a youth” we stayed in run-down places. You know the whole…I used to have to walk in the snow six miles to get to school idea! (also see lessons 7&8)
  10. My husband really likes raps about mini-malls!

    sounds like Youth camp brought about an array of enlightening ideas! and I was in middle school once, and I never once used ax spray in place of a shower haha!
