It’s Time For Family Camp!

July 1st, 2008 Posted in Sideblog

This has to be one of my most favorite things that TFAB does.  Probably because it reminds me of my old youth pastor days back at applegate when I use to run kids camps all summer.  So I guess now I get super excited knowing that this week about a hundred people from the fellowship will be packing up there, minivans, trucks, and trailers (DADS YOU CAN GET THROUGH THIS) and heading on over to South Beach, in Newport, Oregon for a great week together.  You can see some of the pictures from last year in the photo gallery section of the website.  In case you where wondering a typical day at family camp goes somthing like this we start out with a time of morning worship and a short devotional, followed by a afternoon of crazy games, a 40X100 ft slip N Slide, Raw Chicken volleyball and a host of others.  In the Evenings we spend time around the fire studying through some type of camping THEME in the Word….. This Year I am pulling out one of my all time favorites the BOOK OF JONAH!  You can’t beat that book while doing BEACH CAMPING!  I am sure our 5 year olds will be watching there steps around the ocean.  So thats a snip it of a day at Family Camp!  Wish you where coming, but since you are not, this year I am hoping that I can keep the body up to date by blogging live from the Campsite. ( WHO KNEW THAT STATE PARKS HAVE WI-FI)  EVEN A TECHI GEEK CAN FEEL RIGHT AT HOME IN THE GREAT WIDE OPEN!  We are also going to be recording the teachings this year and putting them online when we get back, so if you missed out on camp you can get a feel for it later on.  By the way if you are coming to camp this year and you do read this—- DONT FORGET YOUR GOLF CLUBS GUYS!  

Now if you are one of the lucky families signed up to go, what are you looking forward to most!

    Waaaa! Hearing all those details makes me wish we could go! But don’t feel too bad for us…we were given the gift of visiting family in Wyoming and we’re having fun out here:)
    Well, I hope you all have fun and don’t forget to pack the hand sanitizer for some post-volleyball cleanup! I remember telling myself over and over that surely God would protect Zac from salmonella while he was whacking around that chicken two summers ago:)
