Thinking back on today's service, we're speechless on where to start. The fact that we were able to give back to the church by ushering and greeting people was a great way to start the morning. We had a camp led service that was run by counselors and campers who attended camp. Let's just say that the worship was awesome. We sang songs from our singing devo that we had on Thursday and it was amazing. After a couple of songs, campers and a few of the counselors got to share about their experience at camp. I think there was a common theme: their lives were deeply moved by camp. It's so encouraging to see after a couple of days how God transformed people's hearts tremendously. Another encouraging thing about the service was how grateful the church was. They were so grateful for all of us coming from America and bringing camp to them. Jeff as always preached an amazing sermon on how to live your life dedicated to God! We also got to witness a baptism which was great. As we sang the last song "Lord I Pray", the overwhelming emotion of gratitude hit. We were so so grateful for rejoicing and singing with our brothers and sisters in South Africa. We couldn't be any more thankful to God for this morning and the South African church has made an imprint on our hearts. Here we are at our host families house about to eat snook, which is a fish that is cooked on the brie (grill) for 80 minutes.
