Teen 1 Camp - July 21, 2008







Teen 1 Camp 2008 began today with 110 campers arriving just ahead of a predicted thunderstorm. Registration check-in was moved indoors and indoor activities were planned. Registration went smoothly and the storm passed without a drop of rain, leaving much more pleasant temperatures and cool breezes in its wake.




Pray with us for the spiritual needs of the campers, for wisdom and physical stamina for our counselors and staff, and for safety during the week. We desire to see the Lord do a mighty work during this week of camp.


Pictures posted today show a couple cabin skits before supper, the evening activity (launching a "lame duck"), and pictures from chapel (singing, Pastor Paul Hamilton talking with the campers, and Dr. Stephen Jones preaching from Ephesians 2).

Last of the Junior 2 pictures






Junior 2 Camp is now history. Thought I would add a few pictures from Friday and Saturday.

Caleb and Mikey are helping clean up the camp.

The group picture was taken on Saturday morning.

Cabin 6 eagerly awaits the results of the "election." (Bald Bill won this week.)

Pastor Paul Martin closes Junior 2 2008 with prayer.

Pray for the campers as they seek to follow through with the decisions they made at camp. Pray especially for the ten who made professions of faith this past week.

Junior 2 Camp Update








We are enjoying the enthusiasm of our 5th and 6th grade campers. Yesterday morning they had their first skill class. Pictured is a swimming class, craft class, and fishing class. Our speaker, David Cajiuat, provided special music last night before preaching. Pray for continued working of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the campers. A number of young people responded to the message last night. Several made professions of salvation. Our counselors are following up on those decisions with the campers today.

Junior 2 Camp - First Day Pictures

Junior 2 Camp began yesterday afternoon with 106 campers (53 girls and 53 boys). Before the campers arrive, the staff spent Sunday evening and Monday morning preparing for the campers. Monday evening each cabin prepared a theme-related skit. (I have included pictures of 2 of the cabin groups.) Melody Peeler's kitchen crew decorated the dessert cupcakes to go with the political theme of the week.

The evening game was held out in the soccer field with 4 modified kick-ball games all going on at the same time. Campers enjoyed their first day of camp.

Thank you for praying for the ministry of Peniel Bible Camp.

Junior 1 Camp 2008






Well, Junior 1 Camp 2008 is now history. The campers left today around noon on Saturday. Continue to pray for the campers. The Lord worked in hearts and several boys and girls made decisions that will affect their daily walk with the Lord. Pray also for the ones who made salvation decisions last week.


You may be interested in seeing what a cabin looks like with all the campers belongings inside. I've included a couple "clean cabin" pictures.


Now to prepare for Junior II Camp next week...
