3:34 PM ET Lee University, Cleveland, TN
Hello again! Well we finally figured out the internet here at LeeU, so we'll be able to let you guys back home follow us here at StudentLife Camp. We're on freetime now, and it's just after recreation, which was quite fun, except for being in the middle of a softball field at 1:30 in the afternoon, while it's...85 degrees or so? Maybe closer to 90. We had lots of teamwork games within our church group, as well as with a couple of other groups. A lot of fun, which came with a lot of sweat. And a lot of the games involved standing as close as possible, or holding on to each other, etc. It was a match perfect for youth camp.
After that we got freetime, which is 3:30 to 4:30 today. The girls went back to take showers (?) and probably re-straighten their hair, put on fresh make-up, etc. I asked them if they wanted to write something on the blog here, and they said no. So that's why I'm here writing again. Megan isn't feeling well, so Mark is staying with her like a good husband. Macauley is sleeping(though it doesn't make much difference to me when it comes to someone to talk and walk around with), and Mrs. Pam is staying with her and Megan. Which means that I am out here by myself, but it's not too bad. I'm in a shady outdoor table just outside the cafeteria writing to those of you who are reading, and it's pretty nice.
Yesterday's camp was really good. Worship here is fantastic- Matt Papa (whom Mark and I have pretty much deemed a clone of David Crowder in looks and style) is a great musician with wonderfully simple yet powerful songs. Wade Morris, the pastor for this week, is pretty cool too, and he comes at us with great messages and an amazingly hyper preaching style. Last night was one of the most powerful worships I've had the chance to attend. And that was day one. There's no telling what tonight will be like.
Auditions for Wednesday's talent show are in about thirty minutes, and Erin is going to head over there. If it all works out, we're going to try and get Mark to try out Macauley with her talent: sitting and being cute.
Quiet time this morning was excellent; God has been here with us ever since e got here, but this morning when I was alone in my new secret spot (a shady courtyard type thing with lots of trees and hills and these cool seats that go around the trees), I learned a lot and felt a new drive to do what God has called us as Christians to do.
This camp rocks.

Dinner is from 4:30 to 6:00, so maybe you'll here from one of the girls then.
Caleb,
ReplyDeleteThank you sooo much for doing this blog so that we can keep in touch and feel connected to guys this week. We are so proud of your group and the sincere way you are seeking after Christ. We are praying for God to draw you and the other students even nearer to Himself so that you may know him even better and experience truly the peace and joy that surpasses all understanding. Many blessings, Laura (aka Jessica's mom)
