Sunday - Monday AM

Well, we have arrived! The teens are already interacting and playing with the campers as they arrive. They are all doing a great job.
Yesterday we travelled well through the rain. We switched up seating and who was in the van or bus at least three times; so everybody got to interact with each other.
Lunch was Cici's pizza, and supper was Burger King. We arrived @ 9:30pm and were greeted with pepperoni bread from BaYouCa.

After unloading, we had an orientation from the Camp Director, Russ Warner. He gave a very detailed set of instructions and things to be prepared for, including a slide show. After that, we had a little time of prayer and handed out our team devos for the week. Lights out was @11:30, we made it by 12!

I was very encouraged to see the team members in their Bibles and devo books this morning. Puppet stage and other props are set, cabin assignments are out, and the campers are here!

It is looking to be a great week. I will attempt to post pics and video tonight.

Thank you all for your prayers!!!
