Today has been one amazing day.
Our students started off with an awesome breakfast here at Ridgecrest. Then they dove into some quiet time before our worship time.
For our AM session, we are doing part of a series called "HAPPY" - that will continue once we get back. Happiness according to God. We’re looking at Matthew 5 and studying the Words of Jesus on what it takes to live the truly blessed life.
Today, step one, Matthew 5:3 - I need to understand that I am not God and that God is God. And trusting Him with every decision of my life is the best decision I can make. Students were challenged to fully rely on God and His unchanging character and His unfailing Word.
Some great time of Breakouts followed with 4 of our amazing leaders here at MS camp (Stacey Warbington - a session for girls only; Steve Browning - a session for guys only; Rob Brooks - Rhythm, staying in sync with God and Flip Johnson - God’s Gym, a session on spiritual disciplines)
Lunch followed and our entire group headed out ropes course, part A. Today we got trained on how to work together as a team, and tomorrow hopefully, part B - the actual Ropes, weather permitting. Please pray for good weather for us tomorrow.
Our PM service was totally engulfed with God’s presence as James Patrick Morgan and our very own Melissa Jean lead our students into worship. Chad Cannon followed with a message from the Old Testament (Joshua 4) on our calling to be LIVING STONES, living memorials to what God has done. Our students were challenged in the arenas of their walk, their talk and submitting to authority.
By the end of the service we had students who took one step closer in their commitment to Jesus and ONE student received Jesus as Lord and Savior tonight! God is hard at work in our teens, and He is drawing them closer to Him as each day of camp goes by.
Students are now in Family Group time to discuss what they learned tonight.
Our late night event tonight will be starting at 10 PM and it is HEBRON’S GOT TALENT! :) Our judges are ready and our group is stoked. Shall be interesting to see what our teens will show off tonight. Can’t wait.
It’s been a good day.
Please keep our group in your prayers as we look towards another FULL day of camp tomorrow.
Blessings,
Flav and the HSM staff team
