Day 1 of Camp:
Monday was our first day of Camp! It went pretty well for the most part. I am in charge of the orange group (obviously) and we currently have 12 kids in our group. I know I'm biased but I have a pretty fantastic group. We have a few things here and there that we have to work on, but mostly I just get to be the kids friend not disciplinarian, which i'm so thankful for! Below are pictures of my awesome kids on the first day of camp.
These are two of the kids in my group.
The kid on the left is here with the mission team for this week.
I'm really sad that he will be leaving after this week, he has been so helpful.
This is V.
She lives next door to us so we get to see her all the time.
I was so excited when i found out that she was going to be in my group!
This is the orange group at service.
They were learning about a organization called One Home Many Hopes.
It is an orphanage for girls in Africa.
I was so proud of them they all sat still and listened!
As part of my job here, I am in charge of planning all of the service activities,
so i was really excited they got so into writing letters to the the girls at this orphanage.
This is Y.
His family owns part of the church that we are using.
He is such a delight to have and he is so smart!
He surprises me all the time with the facts that he knows and he is really good at math.
The last thing we do during the day is games.
The kids have loved learning new games.
On the first day we played dodgeball.
By the end of the game the aggression they had towards each other was gone.
It was awesome!
Wow! Fun pictures and neat to see what is going on. Your group is orange?! Keep up the loving!
