Camp Files – Day 3: Here for Each Other
Thursday is when it happens. Every year, like clockwork. Fatigue. After two full days of activities on camp, kids finally hit the wall where they are a lot more tired and a bit more sore. Too much sun, too much ultimate frisbee, too much praise time.
Camp Files – Day 2: Friends and Stories
The camp friendships are real.
This year, we finally are starting to see the same group of students, over and over, and they really do thrive on these relationships!
Camp Files – Day 1: Let the Party Begin!
We arrived moments before a rainstorm. Checking in at camp during a storm is no fun, but the kids made the best of it, running off to their cabins as the rains lightened sporadically. We brought nineteen students this year, which is the most we’ve had in the last four years. Camp was abuzz as well, with more students than last year too!
Mission Trip Journal – Day 3, 2023
Day two of our trip was a little “more of the same” a nd a little “more different.” The “more of the same” was the group of kids who started sorting shoes for Grace Church’s Shoe Drive yesterday, only this time, the amount of shoes they had to sort quadrupled! It’s such a cool thing to see the donations for all the people in the Cape Coral area. Afterwards, some of those same kids helped to build a rocket ship for the upcoming VBS.

Mission Trip Journal – Day 1, 2023
So, being spared the wrath of hurricanes, we decided to help out our neighbors across the coast. We are staying at the church, in a mobile disaster response trailer, and the church is being awesome by providing us food! Before we arrived, the church liaison told us to “be flexible” in the jobs we were going to do. This was extremely important for us to embrace, when Grace Church itself had some major issues just before our arrival, such as a bad roof, air conditioners leaking into the walls, and a major water pipe break in their youth and preschool building! So, our job is now to help out the church itself.
