Day 6/ Day 7

Day 6
Quick update for today our last full day at camp.
Each leader met with each camper for one on ones. Campers
Enjoyed free time, club, cabin time, hearing more from our work crew and had a huge banquet feast.
A full day of fun and great conversation. Many prayers answered today. God is good.

Day 7
Today is our last half day at camp. We will eat breakfast and lunch here, enjoy one last epic club and head home! Wait.... A surprise for campers is coming. We are only 60min from one of the wonders of the world that is too close to pass up. We will be surprising students and having a quick detour at the Grand Canyon on our ride home! We are excited to let kids see God's beauty and spend some time connecting with him there and making memories. Students will have their phones about 5pm our time- and 7pm LS time. Our eta for LS at this time will be 5pm, Sunday night. I will be emailing you with more updates. Sorry no pictures- busy enjoying our last few moments!

5 C's of Young Life

Club: Club is our once a weekly event that lets kids be kids. We give kids the opportunity to be kids again by singing, dancing, and playing crazy games. Students hear a message from the Bible in terms they can understand. YL club is for everyone, no matter where they stand in their faith.

Contact Work: Where there are high school kids there are YL leaders. We believe in earning the right to be heard by building friendships with kids. We come to their turf, whether that's sporting events standing in the stands beside them or coming up to after school and grabbing a Sonic.

Campaigners: Campaigners are small groups made up of students and a leader committed to sharing their lives, struggles, and joys with one another. Student grow deeper in their faith as they explore the Bible and God's love in a life-changing way.

Camp: Young Life states...."Camp is the best week of your life." That is a proven fact. Kids get the chance to have adventure camping at resort quality facilities and share an unforgettable experience. Kids get to leave their normal routine while they hear about and process the need for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Church: Young Life is not the church. We desire our students to be a part of local a congregation. If our students are ready to go deeper we strongly encourage them to attend a local church.
