  Well, we're home!!  I'm sitting here in my own home and it feels great but part of me wants to be back at Falls Creek so bad!!  Sorry there wasn't an entry for yesterday.  Our schedule was  jam packed with worship, which was amazing, and packing and getting in our final icee dates!  The way the Lord moved in these kids and even us sponsors, is just mind blowing.  They are definately different kids.  I am so excited to share everything with you guys tomorrow morning.  Be prepaired to worship the Lord and hear some exciting ways God moved this week. 

P.S. we won a 42" plamsa screen t.v. in a drawing!!! How cool is that?

 

The girls on the last day of camp. 

Personally I enjoy little Terry's bandana look in the back. 

 

Our crazy, awesome trophy for winning the T.V. drawing

 

Thank you to everyone who was there to welcome us back!!!  And thank you for all of your prayers while we were gone!!

Mom and I have excaped to some high quality air conditioning to "blog" but really we were just HOT!! No we wanted to share some more pictures with you guys.  During this time of the day this entire place is completley taken over by the campers.  I think the kids are out swimming and on the ropes course...they just said we're going out to have fun (armed with clothes pins of course)! They have been such a great group; we completely trust them to go off on thier own.  Not once have we had problems with dress code or behavior in tabernacle or anything.  They are so good!!! They are very tired today...I think a couple of naps are in progress right now...but they are still going strong having fun and worshiping the Lord.  Mom and Tracy have bought out Dollar General of clothes pins.  The kids have really taken off with it.  How amazing that they can turn something so simple as a clothes pin into sharing Jesus with the world.  Be on guard on Sunday.  Here are some more pictures, hope you enjoy.  We love yall (remember we are in Oklahoma) and really appreciate your prayers.  God is moving in so many ways!!

Prepairing clothes pins to go "clip" people.

 

A rare shot of Adam...you can see some of his face!!

 

This place is so large we have to take a bus to get out to the volleyball courts, ropes course, and a swimming area.  Here we are waiting to get on the bus to go get wooped at volleyball!!

 

The girls decided that they were going to straighten Adam's hair, and a side of him came out that none of us had ever seen!! Just ask him to model for you sometime!!! Jacob and him are waiting for tabernacle service to start.

Worship this evening was great.  We found out that 129 people responded in some way to the Lord after service last night.  Thats like the ENTIRE Journey Church responding all at once at the front of the church.  How'd you like that, Pastor Matt??? The kids have started something really fun.  They have been clothes pin clipping people all over camp.  They wrote on the clothes pins, "Jesus Loves You.  Pass It On.  Journey Church Joplin, MO."  It has really taken off and we have gotten to know several other campers because of this.  Becky had to go to Dollar General in Davis to get more clothes pins to pass out!! We are so excited to come home and share what the Lord has done with you but I know we don't ever want to leave.  We lost again today at Vollyball...but we are getting better!! We scored points this time not because the other team let us but becasue we actually scored them!! haha.  Camp is so much fun, I wish everyone coud be here.  Expect to see a whole different youth group show up to church on Sunday.  Love you all

Holly and Becky

P.S. we are trying to get pictures loaded!!!

  I don't have much time, almost time for tabernacle, but I'm adding some pictures for now.  I'll try to blog again later tonight or tomorrow.   Our challenge this week has been to memorize John 10:27 so I challenge you to do the same.  God is doing amazing things in these youth's lives.  Untill next time.

So here we are at Falls Creek and in the words of Justin, "This is definately awesome!"  We have been having so much fun worshiping God and goofing around as a youth group.  The group is building a strong relationship among themselves and with God.  To hear the kids say they definately feel God in this place brings chills, but we have been learning that God is everywhere.  I definatley recomend that you check out the sermons at www.skopos.org.  You can also check out entire camp pictures.  This afternoon we played vollyball.  Our Girls Team, Coed 4 on 4, and Boys 4 on 4 all lost....well we got destroyed....but we had a lot of fun.  Plans for a vollyball court at Journey are already in the blue print stages!   There are also tons of other things to do like swimming and ropes courses.  Check out some of our pictures and we will try to log on again tomorrow.
