Student 2.0!

June 28, 2010

Wow. What an amazing day we have had at 2.0 camp! It’s been a great opening day! We had the opportunity to meet our teams as well as our small groups to get to know everyone better! We have an awesome group of students this year at Camp Longridge for the 2.0 camp. Everyone arrived early afternoon and got checked in and then moved into their cabins. Shortly after we got ready for lake time. The students took their swimming tests, swimming from one dock to the other and back. After all the tests were over, we opened the lake for an open swim as well as the blob and the slide. After lake time, we went back to the cabins and got ready for the amazing barbeque dinner! We had the chance to fellowship with one another and talk with the students. We had our first chapel service this evening. The praise band led worship through songs. Mark then came and shared the story of Adam and Eve with us while they were in the Garden of Eden and asked us the question, “Where are you?” symbolizing where are we with God and in life with our walk with Christ. We had different stations set up in the chapel for the students to participate in. It was truly amazing to see the students go around to the different stations and be apart of the service. They had the chance to express what they felt about images of God, to write down prayers, to write things about what the New Kingdom will be like, etc. It was an awesome experience! Tonight we had a bonfire where we made smores and had the opportunity to hang out with the students and play a few games with our teams! I just want to thank God for everything he has done so far here at 2.0 camp, and I pray for the rest of the week and what we have left in store for us! Lord, You are AMAZING!
Thanks,
Nate James
