Ladies Camp

Last Thursday, Saturday and Sunday were definitely days to remember.  It really was a blessing to spend time with my sisters in Christ and to hear some great teaching.  The theme of the camp was Ps 141:3 which talks about controlling our tongue and what we say.  There were a morning session, afternoon session and an evening service.  I usually only attending the morning and afternoon sessions.  I was also privileged to be chosen as part of the 4 person team who "inspected" the rooms each morning.  This was definitely a cultural learning experience for me to see what they do to make their rooms beautiful. 
Saturday afternoon there was a short time of games.  One game that we played was a "friend" game.  Everyone's name was written on a piece of paper and placed in a basket.  Then we each picked a name from the basket.  This person then becomes your friend.  Kyrk jokingly called this pre-facebook.  Yes, I now have a friend.  Still not sure what this means but it was a neat experience to be a part of this and to have "friends."
Sunday was interesting.  We all filed into the church in a parade type way.  It was a very slow dance type walk which lead us eventually to the front of the church.  There were not quite enough benches for all of us, so we were squished nicely. 
We sang 2 songs.  One was the theme song for our camp and that is the first video.  The second was a song that only the ladies from Atrel sang (that is the second video)
Praising God for a great weekend and praying that God will continue to strengthen the relationships with these ladies.
