Day Five- Our Camp Has Come to a Close

 



We’ve reached the last day of our camp for this year.  It seems like a good time to wrap up some loose ends.  Sue completed the story of King David for us.  We learned that King David made some bad choices in his later years that led to some personal heartache, and that while sometimes we may have to live with the consequences of our actions, we can ask God for forgiveness and he will lovingly grant it to us.

In terms of our play, yesterday’s post left off with one of the sheepfold’s young rams being coerced into joining the wolf in his den where he very well could end up as the wolf’s next meal. Through a series of events the wolf carries out a plan where with the ram’s help, convinces the rest of the flock to unwittingly become a part of the wolf’s larder.  It is a very close call but in the end the Good Shepherd finds the sheep and sends the wolf packing with his tail between his legs.

 

The day was wrapped up with the campers, counselors and staff performing the children’s three favorite songs for the children’s foster parents.

At our debriefing meeting, we all agree that we were pleased with how the camp went and that we all feel very blessed to have been a part of it. Time to start looking forward to next year.
