It’s the first full day of junior camp, and campers have been ready for a full day of fun!
Flagpole
This morning, Elias Dispennett led flag pole. He introduced the first part of our theme, “Selfless.” He pointed campers to Phillippians 2:3-5 where we are told to look out for the interests of others. We are also told to be imitators of God in Ephesians 5:1. Jesus humbled Himself and washed His disciples’ feet- a very selfless act and excellent example to us!
Paper Plate Awards
During meals, compadres will give out paper plate awards. These awards recognize special things campers do through various camp activities. Check out our Instagram/Facebook for more!

Today’s Activities
Campers had the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities today. Our sports for the day were kickball, volleyball, and basketball. They also had a chance to show off their artistic skills in the craft hall with a Hawaiian/ocean themed canvas painting and mosaic. After lunch, campers did some indoor board games and Bible Taboo, Pictionary and Outburst with their age groups.
Bible Study
The girl’s bible study was presented by Kaletra Dispennett. She talked about how God calls us to be selfless when…
- Someone doesn’t like us (just like David in 1 Samuel 24)
- Something we have can help (just like Abraham in Genesis 13:1-12)
- We have been taught a different way (just like Paul in Acts)
The boy’s bible study was presented by Kolter Sokeland. He talked about The Good Samaritan and the example of selflessness he showed. We need to be active not only in prayer, but in doing phyiscal things for those in need. We need to ask ourselves, “in what ways can I be selfless in my life as a Christian?”
Surprise Event
After dinner, campers were met with a surprise event. They were given clues and with the help of their team captains went on a scavenger hunt around the campground in search for their compadre!
