Wake Up! Day 4 -The Final Evening

Tonight was a truly amazing and wonderful night. From the moment the doors of the chapel opened at 7pm to let the children in to watch the camp picture show, the atmosphere was electric. One of the adults later commented on Facebook,"I heard the most amazing thing tonight! A house of children's voices rang so loud that it muted all amplified musical instruments with praise to the Lord. Amazing!!!" So true, but if Lightseekers' Camp was only about having children sing loudly or seeing themselves on the projector screen, we wouldn't be doing what God has called us to do. It is all about helping these kids find Jesus and develop a life-long relationship with Him.
In tonight's message, Arol explained how Jesus endured unjustly, the pain and humiliation of the cross so that we could be restored to the good life that God intended for us, but had been lost by sin. He then invited any campers to come forward which several did. Now we have some new brothers and sisters in the family of God. If anyone wonders why so many adults volunteer a week of their time to come to camp, this is the reason why. I'll post more tomorrow...
