Wednesday night we had a blast. The whole camp played Chief Mau Mau. If you don't know what that is - well, you just have to hope you are lucky enough to see it someday. All I can tell you is that we were loud, we laughed harder than we have all week, and a few special people got quite the surprise :).
Later in the evening the older girls were still up past lights out time (imagine that). Sooooo, Sherry, Gail and I came up with our own method of letting the know it was time to go to sleep. We snuck outside their room and we each stood by a window. On the count of three we began yelling and banging on windows. The scared screaming reaction was awesome and it worked - the lights went out quickly and we were all able to sleep in peace and quiet (until the rooster began crowing). Fun and fellowship is a big part of what makes camp special.
On a more serious note, there are people here from the islands of St. Vincent (30 in the congregation) and St. Kitt (6 disciples with only one man). I am getting to know the two woman who traveled with their campers from those two islands and I am convicted about my ungratefulness for the fellowship I have available to me at home. I don't want to forget that I have brothers and sisters who long for the fellowship as have. Jennifer
