Sunday recap at MS Camp 2013 - 15 decisions for Christ at MS Camp!!!
What an unbelievable day we've had yesterday!
We started off with a big tent revival type worship in the morning, followed by a lesson on community (brought to us by Chris Holland) and how important it is to our ability to shine brighter for the Lord Jesus. We closed off that session by having our groups pray together as a family.
More ropes and rec followed throughout the afternoon. I do want to say thanks to ALL of you who prayed for us that we would have great weather at camp. It's been truly amazing, God provided us with super weather!
During the evening session we experienced an unbelievable time of worship. It is truly amazing to be in the middle of a group of Middle School students and leaders who are "ALL IN" in worship, singing at the top of their lungs in spite of lost voices ... One name was lifted high and made BIG in our midst, ONE NAME, ABOVE ALL, JESUS!
Pastor Derek Spain shared Psalm 27 with our students. Here is a brief outline of his talk:
The Lord is my light & my salvation , whom shall I fear ?
Obvious answer - no one
No one !!!
1. Have no fear, The Lord is your Savior
John 1:12 - the right to become children of God.
2. No fear because The Lord is your Light! - Psalm 119:105
A. Read the Bible daily
B. Think on the word
C. What does the Bible say?
3 more decisions for Christ have been made at the end of the service. 2 more after the service, during family group time. Amazing!!!
We ended up the night with the amazing Middle School Talent show. Tons and tons of talent in our group as always. From laughter, to dance, to karate moves, to worship, Talent Show as always was a huge hit!
The amazing news: by midnight, we were at 15 decisions, 15 students who met Jesus at Middle School Camp and boldly stepped out in surrendering their lives to Him. Many more decisions have been made of students wanting to profess their faith in Jesus through believers baptism after we get home. PRAISE THE LORD!!!
We are wrapping camp up this morning and the plan is to leave Black Mtn, NC by 11 AM. We will keep everyone posted on exact time of departure and estimated arrival back home. Please pray for us to have safe travels as we return home.
Jesus reigns!

Saturday recap, MS Camp 2013
Our students started off their day with an awesome breakfast followed by Quiet Time.
The morning session was led by Karl Riddett who spoke on Character, living the Jesus life from the inside out.
Breakouts followed the morning session.
After lunch a full day of fun followed. An amazing time on the Rec field, ropes course and the pool.
The evening session was amazing. Started off with the unforgettable ROLL CALL. Worship with Jerod Beck and the band followed. Then the message from our awesome executive pastor, Derek Spain.
Here are some of the notes from his message:
Salt and light
Matt 5:13
You are the light of the world
Let your light so shine that men will see & glorify your father in heaven
Salt preserves
Salt makes you thirsty
Does the way we live our lives make others thirsty for God?
Into the darkness God spoke light
1. Shine brightly !
2. People will notice.
When things fall apart ... People will notice
As they notice we want to give glory to God.
Ways to shine:
It starts with salvation
Make it public through baptism.
Follow the way of Jesus everywhere you go.
By the end of the night 6 students surrendered their life to Jesus! Many others decided to publicly declare their belonging to Jesus through baptism after we get home in Dacula, GA. Exciting!!!!
God is moving big at Middle School camp!!! Hearts are changed and so far 10 teenagers have been rescued by Jesus from darkness into the kingdom of His light. Praise His Name!!!!
We have one more full day and tonight's worship session is going to be BIG. We are asking and believing Jesus for a big harvest today as we wrap things up at MS camp. Pray with us and pray for us.
PS - by midnight students will be packed up and we are leaving YMCA Blue Ridge tomorrow morning @ 11 AM and should be back at Hebron by 4 PM

Night #1 of Middle School Camp
After a safe arrival at the YMCA Blue Ridge, our students had a great BBQ dinner and headed to worship. Jerod Beck Band led us in an amazing time of worship and Pastor Derek Spain spoke to our students about spiritual blindness and how Jesus came as the light of the world. Here are the main points of Derek's talk:
John 9, Jesus and the man born blind
1. He was blind
2. He believed in Jesus
3. He was healed.
4. He was changed forever
1 Pet 2:9-10 we are a royal priesthood , a holy nation called out of darkness into light...
Ephesians 5:8-10 - you were once darkness ... But you are now in light, so walk as children of light ...
Pastor Derek's invitation was for all our students to walk in a way that honors Jesus.
13 Students walked out making decisions for Christ, some to receive Him in their hearts and some to commit in walking in the Light of their Savior.
Family groups time followed: students had opportunities to talk about what the Lord has revealed to them in the service.
At 10 PM, we went out for a scavenger hunt that ended at the bonfire where students enjoyed s'mores.
We will be posting pictures of worship soon.
Please continue to pray for us as God began a great work in the hearts of our students last night.

Please pray for Middle School CAMP 2013!
Here are some ways you can pray for us as we leave for MS Camp Friday morning:
Pray for ALL the students going to camp: open and receptive hearts to hear God’s Truth and purpose for their lives.
Pray for those going with us that don’t know Jesus that THIS WEEKEND, Jesus will draw them to Himself and change them forever.
Pray for our core students that go, that Jesus will call them into a life fully dedicated to His following, a life that SHINES BRIGHT in their world.
Pray for our family group leaders as they DO LIFE with our students over the weekend. Pray for great conversations to take place daily as students debrief what they hear throughout the day.
Pray for our Hebron Middle School Ministry staff as they put together ALL the details of Middle School camp.
Pray for great weather.
Pray for our amazing speaker, Derek Spain. We are excited to have him speak Truth into the lives of our Middle Schoolers!
Pray for Jerod Beck Band – anointing from above as they lead our group in worship daily.
Pray for our breakout leaders.
Pray for all of our AM/PM sessions and all breakouts: that God’s Word would penetrate DEEP and STICK inside the hearts of our students.
Pray for our safety on the road and while at camp.
Pray for ALL that we do at camp to not just be something we do “at camp” but it will so CHANGE all of us to the extent that it goes beyond camp to our world back home, a world that needs the LIGHT of Jesus in a bad way.
Thank you so much for praying for us!
Flav and the Middle School Team
