Formula 1 Camp June 15th - June 20th

Formula 1 was great camp for boys! They learned what it means to be a man according to the Biblical principles. They also had a great time doing a variety of different activities. They learned how to drive a real car and all about what goes on under the hood of a car. What's better than driving a car?? Shooting a gun and a bow!     Plenty of time for sports activities, bike riding, and swimming, too!      And building their own race carts!      There was even a little time for hanging around the camp site and talking with our leaders about life.  Thirty-two boys accepted Christ this week! Praise God for the work in the hearts of these kids and pray for this seed to keep on growing.

Building Completed!

Please keep on praying for the team writing the program and the final preparations they make before the camp.
