We drove one of the vans to Camp Berea in New Hampshire. The drive was about 4 hours.
It was frustrating at times, but a lot of growth was seen in the kids and the leaders.
(yes I grew out my beard, but is nicely trimmed again)
The worship band, Sidewalk Prophets, was great. They just got signed to a record deal, so we'll keep our ears open for their new song on the radio.
The speaker for the weekend was Super Duff. The theme for the weekend was momentum. He presented the gospel in a very unique way, that spoke well to the kids.
The bald guy in the middle is Nate. He's the camp director.
They were getting ready to attempt to rip the phone book in half.
The girls got roses for Valentines Day from one of the female leaders. They were to let them know that God loves them for who they are.
They ended up wearing them in their hair pretty much all weekend. Don't they look lovely?
who's taller?
During the weekend they split the campers in two teams, and played Red vs. Blue games all weekend. The winning team got to go eat first. We always ate first. :)
Another Red vs. Blue game. They had to knock the knights head off.
We enjoyed the lodge a lot. Emily read in front of the fire.
Girls warming their toes after playing in the snow.
Carpet ball was a popular game.
The lodge had a balcony with pool tables. Our group spent a lot of the time playing pool as well.
Youth Pastor, Paul, trying to catch a break.
We tried to stay on our feet as we walked around on the giant frozen lake.
The lake was surrounded by mountains.
Christian and John challenged each other to a boxing match. They both got knocked down a lot. The officials are still out trying to decide their final score.
There was a dodgeball tournament to end all the games on Saturday.
Our team of guys was called the TIErants. (They all wore ties)
The girls are nervous for the whistle to blow to start the dodgeball game.
