End of Day 2

I'm sitting out in my little Cybercafe area, just outside the leadership room/dining hall with one eye open scanning for wildlife that might want to join me as I blog -it's best to be vigilant because you never know what critter might wander by. (Dave says I ought to rename Ann's Cybercafe to Ann's Rustic Cybercafe due to the less than technologically advanced computing conditions. For one reason, besides all the bugs and animals that might happen by, the internet is constantly dropping out and it takes forever to retrieve your emails or upload photos.)
The young two-legged critters called campers are all fast asleep, worn out from the afternoon's events -hiking, swimming, games in gym, crafts and even watercolor painting. Tonight's dinner of fried chicken, rice pilaf, corn, salad and watermelon was excellent as usual (for camp food, that is). Yet as good as dinner was, chapel was even better with worship by Miss Karla that reminds us that we serve a God who "never let's go" as well as telling us that those who are last now, will be first later and that we are the light of the world like a "city on hill that can't be hidden" (like our theme from this morning.) We always have such an outstanding time singing praises to our King, Jesus; no one who attends a Lightseekers' Camp ever comes away with the impression that lifting our voices to God isn't one of the best parts of camp. Also in chapel, Miss Carol shared more on her continuing missionary story about Romania -tonight we heard about the girl with the hole in her heart who needed a miracle that God provided, but we were all left hanging as to whether she received another after God answered their prayers the first time.
Speaking of answered prayers, today the campers gave over $300 in offering towards supporting our World Vision children -praise God!
Miss Mary spoke tonight about why we need salvation in Jesus using the Gospel colors. If you don't know what the colors are and what they represent, be sure to ask your camper when they get home. I'm sure they will be "ALWAYS READY!!!!" to give you an answer.
