I'm in Toccoa, GA!
And you are saying to yourself...Why? Well I'm here to help out with a new camp called MERGE, created by the Georgia Baptist Convention. MERGE is a camp that focuses on missions and fleshes it out through worship, missions, discipleship and fellowship that is customized to fit the needs of students. Youth will have the opportunity to get involved locally helping at the Boys and Girls Club, VBS and several construction projects. Not only will they get to make a difference in the community of Toccoa but they will have a chance to worship and build relationships with fellow churches from around Georgia. It's going to be awesome!
It's day one and God is already doing some amazing things in the hearts of the students, the staff and the community... We are already the talk of the town. Stephany, Chris and I went out to Home Depot and Wal-Mart today to get supplies and all the workers were intrigued by the things we were buying. I mean we did buy 45 paintbrushes, 70 pairs of gloves, 20 wire brushes, 70 pairs of googles, 200 trash bags, paint, traps, and much much more... so I can understand why people were curious. Big things are gonna happen this week!!! Go check out the site and if you weren't involved this year, definitely get involved next year!
Just for your entertainment, here is what we did at our first morning meeting:
Can we say "Kids at Heart!" I sure do wish I could stay all week:(
