Denver Falcon Camp!

Today completes our last Falcon (elementary age) camp of the summer... there is a lot of bitter/sweet feelings with our staff as we round up this group. This is our group from inner-city Denver and typically it is our "hardest" Falcon camp.

This week has probably been our best ever Denver Falcon camp!

Great kids.

Fun (safe) times.

Open hearts and minds!

We went into this week expecting more challenges because we have less support staff available to do all the work required to run the logistics of the day to day operations. Think: dishes, set up, clean up, errands, cooking. Our 5 support staffers have ROCKED it. They are serving and not stopping! God's people are showing us all how a little of what belongs to God is mighty!

On top of that, yesterday we had two young ladies profess faith in Jesus as their Savior!
One camper has had a very hard heart the past few years she has attended, she very easily will get angry in a passive way and will refuse to talk to people if they displease her. Mid week her counselor gently told her, "I think you need to stop living for yourself and give your life over to God, things don't seem to be working for you on your own." She spent the entire next day giving her counselor the silent treatment. Her counselor began to wonder if she shouldn't have been so "in her face". Then the next day after playing a game she washed up and peeked around the corner and said, "Hey. Krystina, I am giving my life to God now!"

Tomorrow the camp leaves bright and early to start a very LONG trip home.

Please pray for...
Safe travel.
No road issues with fires.
Easy going travelers.
Not many stops (that bladders hold out).
The late return trip for our drivers.
