Camp!!!!

On June 18-22nd I attended Bluewater Covenant Bible camp in Grand Rapids, MN. It was my second time going to this Bible camp, and I was with my two best friends, McKenzie and Sophie Larson. 
I was soooo blessed by the whole week! Everything about it was amazing! The theme was "Transformation",  Romans 12:2  "Do not conform to the world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." was the main verse for the week. 
Hearing the speaker talk about the subject of not following the world really impacted me, because so many times I fall short and follow what the world has to say, but then the verse in Romans comes to mind, and the Lord always brings me back to Him. I can't possibly type everything that I learned from the speaker. Another thing that blessed me during the week was hearing a testimony every morning from one of the staff members, and hearing mission work that some of the staff had been on. Luke (a counselor) gave a testimony that was so moving, hearing how God pulled him back to the Lord in his darkest hour, and how he just knew he had to surrender to Him. TJ (one of the staff members) spoke on how even if you don't go far away to another country, you can still be a missionary in your community, and spread the word of Jesus Christ. This really impacted me, it was so good to be reminded that I can spread Jesus' love to so many people in my daily life! It's still pretty tough, but the Lord will always bring up the right opportunity to share about Him. 
It rained two days out of the week, which you would think it was a bummer, but we all had THE BEST time ever! Playing games in the mud, mud fights, lots of board games, and coloring inside by the fire place of the dining hall. 
Our counselor's name was Molly, and she was the crazziest, most fun counselor ever! 
To sum up the whole week: I was so blessed. By all of the speakers, the fellowship with other campers,  talking to the staff, and everything else we did!  
I could go on and on and on about how much camp really strengthened me as a Christian.... If anyone would like to hear more about it, or have any questions, just pop me an e-mail or give me a call.... I love talking (most of you probably know that....). 
Enjoy the pictures!

We played a super fun game called nine realms! It was kinda like 4 square, but much more fun!

Haha! Janzyn stole my camera for a little while once...

While I was at camp, I found out that Luke Christianson (Above) went to North Park University, and knows my cousin Pete Anderson, Pete's wife Anne, and is best friends with Anne's brother! Small world! 

There were three boys (Zack, Cameron, and Dossin) who called them selves the Three Musketeers. They all lived at camp because their parents worked there... 

 This is Jared, and one of his campers on the last day when they were saying goodbye. Nick (in the shorts) played the Ukalalee (sorry if I spelled that wrong!) for us while it was raining.
