Another beautiful day has begun at Camp Shiloh on the grounds of Delta Lake Bible Conference Center. Last night we had an enthusiastic main event dusting off the classic game of tug-of-war. The highlight of the night was the come from behind victory for the Judah lady counselors. They were within one inch of defeat and pulled out the win. It was amazing!!!
The main event was followed by another amazing service. The campers carried the enthusiam from the day into chapel and gave their all in worship. Pastor Chris Wood continued his teaching on normal Christianity from John 5. He shared about how Jesus makes intercession on our behalf and validates himself in our lives. The campers were challenged that ministry is the stuff that we are all called to do. The service concluded with a powerful time of prayer as the campers were encouraged to call upon the Lord. A fervency was seen in prayer and God led many to a place of forgiveness. We thank the Lord for His continued grace upon the camp.
Today Sister Laurie Crowley has begun to receive her voice back (Yay!) and it was a welcome addition to our morning muster time. We had a great time laughing as the campers displayed their awesome creativity. Following breakfast we had skill classes where dodgeball seemed to be a favorite choice today.
As I write this cabin groups are spread throughout the camp for their devotional time. Off to my write several of the girl's groups are at picnic tables on the point looking out over Delta Lake. The beauty of creation in this place is inspiring.
We're mixing up the schedule slightly this afternoon to take advantage of the warm weather for our favorite main event, watermelon football!!! Please continue to pray for the campers and the staff, that every purpose of the Lord would be fulfilled this week. In addition we're working on some technical issues with our sound system and praying that the Lord will work that out today.
Tomorrow we have a surprise for the campers that we've been working on for quite some time. I look forward to sharing the results of that day with you soon.
