Our last day at camp has been a great one! We started the day with breakfast and morning worship, then we went to our morning rotation!
After lunch we enjoyed two afternoon rotations and then went to dinner!
We played a game in the valley and then cabin groups went to start packing up their things and getting ready to go home.
Parents soon began to arrive and we had our closing ceremony. Bob spoke about what has happened this week and we worshiped with More Than Conquerors for the last time.
Campers reunited with their parents and said goodbye to their friends. There were lots of hugs and some tears as we parted ways. It was an incredible week of camp!
Our last full day at camp has been a great one so far! We began our morning with breakfast, morning worship, and a morning rotation! Then we had lunch and went to afternoon rotations!
See more camp pictures here!
Next up is dinner and Bible Quiz! Our staffers Levi and Nick are having a great time hosting it!
For valley games tonight campers went down the slip-n-slide!
Tonight we sang One Thing Remains, We Believe, City On Our Knees, Come As You Are, and Build Us Back!
Bob preached about service tonight! Ephesians 5:1-2 says, "1 Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children 2 and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God." The first disciples to follow Jesus sacrificed their lives to learn from Him. They wanted to be where Jesus was; we should too! We should want to imitate Jesus through service!
Service helps to strengthen our faith. Many campers and counselors shared stories of mission trips they had been on that changed their lives and helped grow their heart for the Lord. They went near and far but serving others impacted all of them deeply.
Jesus calls us to love and serve our neighbor, whoever they are. The ultimate act of service was Jesus dying on the cross for our sins.
Campers shared in communion with one another and prayed together. Then we went to various campfires in our small Bible study groups and worshiped and shared with each other around the fire. Campers were vulnerable during this time and shared their stories with one another. After we were finished, we went back to our cabins and went to bed.
Campers began their day today with breakfast, morning worship and morning rotations!
After morning rotations campers headed out to their two afternoon rotations and then ate dinner.
Bible Quiz tonight was a blast! We have three staff members with very curly hair and they had a competition to see who could brush it out to be the biggest. Campers cheered them on and voted for who they thought won!
For valley games campers played beach ball blunder with a 6-foot inflatable beach ball!
Then we came inside for evening worship!
Tonight we sang Blessed Be Your Name, Jesus Freak, Lift Your Head, From the Inside Out, What If I Stumble, Give Me Your Eyes, and Born Again.
After worship campers did devotions with their cabins and went to bed!
Another Great Day at Camp!
Our day today started off with breakfast, morning worship, and morning rotations!
After lunch we had two more rotations to make up for the one that we missed due to the bad weather yesterday. Today, the weather was warm and wonderful and we enjoyed some awesome rotation time!
After dinner we had Bible Quiz and then Pool Olympics! Pool Olympics is lots of fun water activities! We went down our slip-n-slide on inner tubes, we played water polo in the pool, we played human net volleyball where our staff members were the net, and we played sponge-dodge (dodgeball with wet sponges). We got all wet and had a great time!
After the valley games we went to the Lodge for Evening Worship!
Tonight at worship we sang Free To Be Me, What Faith Can Do, Come As You Are, What If I Stumble, Oceans, The Heart of Worship, City On Our Knees, and From The Inside Out.
The message began with God-sightings from the day where campers shared with the group where they had seen God at work today. Then they shared prayer requests and covered them in prayer.
The message was about believing in our God even when things are hard. We talked about Thomas the Apostle doubting that Jesus had risen from the grave. Thomas only truly believed it after had saw Jesus in person and touched the wounds that He had.
Choice is a big part of our relationships with God. We must be able to decide to follow Him in order for our faith to be valid.
We talked about why people sin. People sin because we are free to make our own decisions and we don't always choose the correct path. We lie. We cheat. We get angry. We seek inappropriate situations. We blind ourselves to righteousness by letting little white lies convince us they aren't sins of equal measure. God hates sin and it separates us from Him.
A band member named Ben shared his testimony with the group. Ben grew up in a broken home and had a lot of feelings of inadequacy throughout his life. He didn't understand why his parents had split up or why his mom and her new husband Jack also split up.
Ben withdrew from the world and stopped reaching out to people. His best friend Tammy tried to kill herself and Ben also struggled with suicidal tendencies. He didn't understand why God would do this to him, he asked "Why me?"
Eventually, Ben went on a mission trip that changed his life. He saw people who had even more hurt in their lives than he did who still had the joy of the Lord and who still enjoyed their lives. Then he began asking "Why not me?" Ben found God on that trip.
God isn't material wealth. He is love. Love for ourselves, love for others, and love for service.
The scars that Ben carries from his past are not something to be ashamed of but something to carry to help serve the Lord with!
After Ben shared Bob got back onstage and shared Revelation 3:20 with the campers. "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door I will come in and eat with him, and he with me."
Campers were asked if they were ready to open the door of their hearts and to let the Lord in. They got up and walked symbolically through an open door we set up and walked to the back of the room to pray with counselors, staff, and directors.
Some campers gave their lives to Christ!!
Our first full day of camp started with an awesome breakfast!
We had a bit of bad weather today so campers stayed inside until lunch. We played games, sang silly songs, and had a blast!
After lunch the weather cleared and we went to our first rotations! Rotations at Camp Adventure are high ropes, low ropes, blob, paintball, canoes, or pool. Campers break into smaller groups and each of the smaller groups goes to a different rotation.
After two rotations campers came back to the lodge for dinner. Following dinner we do Bible Quiz! Bible Quiz is a game show run by the staff that is hilarious and informative. It is set up like Jeopardy and has fun categories like "Know Your Staff," "Men of the Bible," "Camp Trivia," and many more.
The campers come up to the stage in pairs of two and use each other as buzzers to answer the questions once they are asked. The cabin that answers correctly gets to pick the next category.
Valley games are up next! Today campers played Zombie Triangle Tag!
One of our favorite parts of the day is evening worship! Tonight we sang We Believe, and Jesus Freak.
During the sermon we talked about Scripture. 2 Timothy 3:16 says "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness."
All Scripture is from God, since it is from God you should apply it to your life! Just reading your Bible doesn't cut it, we have to live out what we read.
Joshua 1:8 "Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day an night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful."
We used the analogy of wind chimes. The top part of wind chimes represents Scripture. One of the hanging pieces represents reason and common sense, another is experience, another one is tradition. When all of the pieces work together they chime and make a beautiful noise.
Luke 11:28 "He replied, "Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it."
Campers were asked to come forward and share their favorite Scripture verses.
After worship campers headed back to their cabins to do nightly devos with their cabin mates and then they went to sleep! It was a great first day!
The Camp Adventure staff is so excited for another week of campers! We're expecting incredible things to happen!
Campers arrived today and began to meet one another and their counselors!
Our first activity was a group game that we played in our valley. Campers played the Molecule Skills Game and then headed into Lookout Lodge for our first worship together!
During worship we sang Born Again, Lift Your Head, Build Us Back, and What Faith Can Do.
During today's sermon we talked about seeking versus looking. Seeking is far more intentional than looking and the Lord is seeking a relationship with us.
Matthew 6:22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy,[c] your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eyes are unhealthy,[d] your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
After worship, campers went stargazing to enjoy God's beautiful creation!
Then they went to their cabins to do devotions and went to bed.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani was quoted by the Iran-based Mehr news agency as saying that Donald Trump is "the worst, most evil" US president, even though all of his predecessors have stood against the Iranian nation since Iran's Islamic Revolution of 1979.
Rouhani made the statement as he met with the media on the night of June 13. Iran's head of state hailed the policy his country had been pursuing following the US withdrawal from the Iran nuke deal, claiming that "all but a few countries are condemning the US and praising Iran."
"For the first time in the history of the United Nations, Iran's right to enrichment has been acknowledged," he added.
Rouhani went on to say that the UN Security Council "has not given this right to any country so far and has acknowledged this right only for the Islamic Republic of Iran." The president also urged the media to unite against what he called "the psychological war of the enemies" that had affected Iran's market stability.
Rouhani said he has a positive outlook on the future of the Islamic Republic, despite the pressure Tehran has been facing from the United States.
Tensions between Iran and the United States have been on the rise ever since May 8, when POTUS announced his decision to pull the US out of the Iran nuclear deal and hit the country with new economic sanctions in 90 days. Many other states, including deal signatories Russia, China and the EU, have opposed the US move and vowed to uphold the pact. Iran has also reaffirmed its commitment to the deal, stressing, though, that it might build up its nuclear enrichment capacity if the agreement collapses.
The Iran accord of 2015 saw the Islamic Republic reduce its nuclear capacity in exchange for the lifting of crippling economic sanctions from the country.

Can you still remember your parents yelling at you to close the refrigerator door? Although they might have just been trying to keep the energy bill down, they were also protecting the food in the fridge. There are ‘rules’ for keeping things safe and healthy in your refrigerator.
The first and most important one is to keep the door open for only short periods of time. This rule prevents the warm air outside of the fridge from raising the temperature inside. Here are nine other tips for keeping the food in your fridge fresh.
Don’t cram all the food you can fit into your fridge. It’s important to leave enough space between food so the air can flow freely and keep the temperature inside consistent. Consistent temperature is key to keeping your food fresh.
Vegetables prefer a humid storage climate while fruits prefer dry. Check to see if your refrigerator has controls for each bin and store them separately. If you don’t have this option, you can wrap veggies with a wet paper towel to maintain humidity.
Milk needs to be stored where the temperature stays consistently the coolest. In general, the best spot is in the rear of the fridge. Milk should not be stored on the door, since that area is regularly exposed to warmer air when the refrigerator door is opened.
Many refrigerators have a dedicated storage space for cheese and butter, most often located at the top of the door. This is a fine area to store your cheese and butter, but it’s still important to keep them sealed in an airtight container so they don’t spoil.
6. So what should you keep on your refrigerator doors?
Store soft drinks and non-perishable condiments on door shelves. These are items that aren’t that affected by slight temperature changes.
Eggs should be kept in their original container and placed on the middle shelf with nothing too heavy stored directly on top that could crack your eggs.
Raw meat juices can cross-contaminate all the exposed food in your refrigerator. Therefore, store raw meat in a glass container so liquid doesn’t spill onto the shelves.
Leftover food should be kept in clear glass containers or resealable plastic bags so you can see what condition it’s in without having to open the container and expose the leftovers to air. It’s a good idea to always store your leftovers in the same area in your fridge so you don’t forget about them. As a general rule of thumb, you should purge your leftovers every three days.

WATCH ABOVE: The National Lacrosse League and the Professional Lacrosse Players' Association have yet to reach a new collective bargaining agreement, threatening the start of the 2019 season. Ryan Flaherty reports.
The National Lacrosse League (NLL) announced Thursday it reluctantly has no choice but to cancel the first two weekends of the 2018-19 season due to a labour dispute with its players.
NLL has been negotiating with the Professional Lacrosse Players’ Association (PLPA) — the exclusive bargaining agent for players — and a collective bargaining agreement has not been reached.
League officials said the PLPA has instructed its players not to attend training camps or submit to physicals. The players have followed these instructions which has made it impossible for the teams to form rosters or otherwise operate, the NLL said in a statement.
All games on Dec. 1 and Dec. 8 have been cancelled by the league.
The NLL said it has proposed a fair calculation of bonuses based on attendance growth plus a percentage increase each year to account for growth in all attendance-related revenue streams.
“We have put a very good and fair offer on the table, which includes a 25 per cent increase in salary and benefits for the players,” the NLL statement said.
The players’ association told Global News it’s sorry the league chose not to accept either of its two proposals and they welcome dialogue around ways to create the partnership both sides deserve.
“Our proposal Wednesday would have us play under the first two years of their seven-year proposal, with the prospect of a five-year term if an agreement on the definition and application of gross average team revenue is reached by January of 2020,” the PLPA statement said.
Founded in 1986, the NLL is comprised of 12 franchises in North America that include: Buffalo Bandits, Calgary Roughnecks, Colorado Mammoth, Georgia Swarm, New England Black Wolves, Philadelphia Wings, Rochester Knighthawks, San Diego Seals, Saskatchewan Rush, Toronto Rock, Vancouver Warriors and Halifax ‘18.

Large flowers in a range of cheerful colors bloom over dense olive-green foliage. The small plants make a big impact in mass plantings, in containers on a hot sunny deck, in a rock garden, or the front of the border.
Remove any winter-burned leaves in the spring. Vibrant 15” flower spikes shimmering with tiny deep rosy red bells starting in April and lasting for months, then repeat throughout the summer.
The flowers emit a sweet fragrance that appeals to both pollinators and people! Nicely sized at 3-4', with lush dark green foliage, this Eastern native can handle a variety of soil types with ease.
They adapt to any soil and increase quickly. Use as a background for annuals. Monarda didyma Jacob Cline beebalm is one of the easiest perennials to grow. Intensely glowing red, extremely large flowers.
Doublefile viburnum shrubs are prized for their horizontal branching habit and amazing lacecap blooms. Deer won't bother this spring-bloomer, and you get added fall interest with the appearance of berries.
Flowering from June to November, the compact plant habit produces tall upright stems that look stunning in a vase. Garden Alstroemeria will perform best in perennial plant border, but can also be planted in a container for display on a patio or balcony.
With their attractive divided evergreen foliage and strong resistance to deer, they are essential elements of shady beds and borders. Blooming in late winter to early spring hellebores are delights of the winter garden.
Thrives in rich, deeply worked soil. If sown early, blooms first year from early summer till frost. Perennial in zones 3-7. Immense, graceful light to medium blue spikes with white "bees".
The star-shaped florets, densely clustered along the 8-12" flower spikes, make a strong color statement. Try them in containers, where you can enjoy their magical scent to the fullest.
Grows well in partial shade or sun in borders and woodland gardens. Spikes of speckled, shapely blooms flower in shades of pink, rose, purple, cream, primrose and white in early summer of second season after seed is sown.
Flowers form brownish, urn-shaped fruits in fall and persist throughout the winter. Blooms scent can be described as combination of pineapple, strawberry and banana. Also known as Carolina allspice, calycanthus is a south- east U.S. native deciduous shrub.
Blooms the first year. Tidy, compact plants enhance the otherworldly size of these 8" wide flowers. Huge blooms literally swirl open to reveal brush strokes of pink, rose and cranberry red on silky, bright white petals.
Blooms mid spring. Petals are extremely hardy and long lasting in the garden even under bad weather. It petals are so deeply fringed they look like a cotton candy in the vase. Huis Ten Bosch is one of the deepest fringed tulips.
Summer Drummer is an ideal addition to the spring blooming perennial border when planted with Foxglove and surrounded by late single tulips. The tallest ornamental allium commands vertical interest as high as 5 feet.
Globemaster is the best selection for color intensity. Alliums are deer resistant and flower late in the spring to early summer. They provide color in the garden between the finale of spring bulbs and the summer show of perennial flowers.
Long a favorite in the garden, a winner of the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. Prune in early spring before plant leafs out. An outstanding red clematis with gold anthers add to the velvety, classic look.
Bulb size: 12 cm. And for endless color in the spring garden, we suggest planting Candy Prince in concert with crocus Grand Maitre, hyacinth Purple Sensation, tulip Magic Lavender and allium Gladiator.

Lat 7° 19' 60S	Long 146° 43' 0E Wau is located at an elevation of 3,720' / 1,133m in New Guinea. To the north is Bulolo and to the west is Edie Creek. The Bulldog Track terminates at Wau.
Today, connected by road to Bulolo and westward to Edie Creek and to the west is McAdam National Park. Today located in Morobe Province in Papua New Guinea (PNG).
During the 1930s, Wau was a gold rush boom town full of prospectors. During 1930-1933, Errol Flynn lived in Wau during 1930-1933 working as a Patrol Officer (Kiap), trader, shipper, hustler and gold prospector. The Catholic church established a mission at Wau. In 1940, Father Glover was assigned to the mission.
In early March 1942 Australian Army Captain Allan Cameron and his men withdraw from Salamua Airfield via Wau and noted Wau was "a terrible mess after bombing, water on drome, town completely deserted" then trekked the Bulldog Track to the south coast.
After the Japanese defeats elsewhere in New Guinea, the Japanese Army hoped to strengthen their holdings in New Guinea by advancing from Salamaua on the coast inland to capture Wau. During February 1943, the Japanese offensive was defeated by the defending Australian forces, then pushed back towards the coast.
Built prior to the war, first used on April 18, 1927. Used heavily during the Wau campaign.
Bulolo Gold Dredge that was overrun by the Japanese. This dredge is still abandoned outside of Wau, where it was used post-war, then abandoned.
