I am getting ready to take a bunch of rowdy jr. higher students and leaders to winter camp at Camp Evergreen. This is an annual event and I love going up there for the weekend. I think that getting out of the city to spend time with a bunch burping smelly jr. high kids is one of the funnest things to do on a weekend. Well, maybe there are some things that are funner but I gotta stay positive right.

They have a great speaker coming who doesn’t know how to pronounce coyote (he pronounces it KEY-OH-TEE) and there is a really fun night game that involves the underground church. I did it at sr. high camp and our team was the first team to leave (10:00pm) and the last team back (2:30 am).

In addition to bringing the group up, I am also bringing a worship team up to lead worship. We were asked last minute to help and I am super excited to be a part of the band. The camp band is always the coolest group at a camp and I will finally be part of the cool kids. Maybe we can be like an exclusive club or something - we all have really cool scarves so that could be our “thing”.

Pray for the youth and leaders while we are up there. Jr. high camp in Big Bear is where I made the decision to follow Christ and I hope that all of the youth coming will be changed by this weekend. Now I just need to find my earplugs, air freshener, and a large bottle of Aleve.
