Marvelous Monday!

July 20, 2009

The beginning of every camp week starts on the day, Monday. Today, Monday, here at Camp Longridge the staff woke up bright and early to get the camp grounds ready for the new campers of this week. Just like every other Monday, the campers came pouring out of their churches vans with excitement of what was to come. This Monday was different, each camper had a new face and a new mood about them. I, Andrea, was very happy to find that this 20th day of July [yes, a Monday] brought back a few campers from last year.

After the “unpacking in the cabins on Monday extravaganza” occured, everyone on the grounds was quick to get to the swim test and other lake time activities. This Monday lake time gave me the opportunity to meet and greet with many campers. All of the campers I met today, were happy to be here at camp on this very fine Monday.

Monday dinner was great, as usual; you know, the BBQ! Yum… Monday dinner! Mr. Frank’s Monday night talk taught us what it means to be a Christian. There was a good number of campers that came to saving knowledge of Jesus Christ on this exciting Monday.

The late night, Monday night team activity (Volleyball!) went well. Green and Red dominated the court this Monday. Who knows who will win next Monday?

As this day, Monday, comes to a close, I would like to thank all for your time spent in thought and prayer for all of us here at camp. Please do not give up on us yet; not this Monday. We still have one more week of camp after this one; which means one more Monday to celebrate new beginnings.
Love,
Andrea
