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.
