We had the final installment of the story of Joseph in Breakfast Club. Yesterday, we left Joseph at the spot where he’d just been made second in command to the pharaoh. A famine had struck the area, just as God had foretold through Joseph, and Joseph’s family was forced to go looking for food in Egypt. They were brought before Joseph to ask for food. Joseph puts them through several test to see if they’re still of bad character or if they’ve changed.

Joseph learns that his brothers have had a change of heart and are no longer of a jealous and murderous nature. He forgives his brothers, offers them food and invites them and his father to come to live in Egypt. We learn from this story that throughout our lives, we can rely on God to be with us and will watch over us, regardless of our situation, whether it be good or bad and that we must forgive those who have hurt us and treat us poorly to ensure bitterness doesn’t overtake our lives.
The rest of the day was taken up with lunch, the trip home and our Welcome Back presentation for the campers’ caregivers. The songs for the program were, Jesus Is Our Super Hero, Rain or Poor and Absolutely Nothing. We also watched a video of our campers having fun throughout the week.

We want to thank our campers’ caregivers for allowing us to spend the week with their foster children while at camp. We’d also like to thank our camp sponsors and those who have made donations through the year.
It’s time to start planning our next year’s camp.
