Tuesday, July 1, 2014 - When Fear Starts to Rise, Refocus Your Eyes

Happy Canada Day!!!!

What a day to be at Camp Sunrise!  It is sunny and hot and we celebrated Canada's birthday with an afternoon carnival!   Everyone is getting into the groove of their classes and making new friendships. We ended our celebrations with a movie & popcorn followed by a great fireworks display.

Today in chapel we talked about the story of David and Goliath.  When David could have been very scared of Goliath, he instead chose to focus on God who gave him courage to fight the battle.  Our compass point today was "When fear starts to rise, refocus your eyes".  We talked about different scenarios in life that may be challenging or scary and how it's important to trust God to help us do what he has called us to do.  Our memory verse today was Deuteronomy 31:6 "Be strong and courageous.  Do not be afraid or terrified for the Lord your God goes with you.  He will never leave you or forsake you".

Monday, June 30, 2014 - A Willing Heart Is Where You Start!

This week in chapel we are learning about David and what lessons we can learn from his life to apply to our own.  We are being led through these sessions by "Brother Bill" and "Sister Jessica" as well as some very entertaining knights.  The lesson from today was that A Willing Heart Is Where You Start and our memory verse was 1 Samuel 16:7b "The Lord does not see as man sees.  Man looks at the outward appearance but the Lord looks at the heart".

The day was filled with performing arts classes, electives, some free time and we wrapped it all up with a campfire.

JPAC 2014 has officially begun!

Hello!   JPAC 2014 got off to an amazing start yesterday with our campers being welcomed at the ferry terminal by a faculty brass ensemble.  Once at the camp, everyone was registered and off to their cabins to make their home for the week.   We enjoyed a lovely spaghetti dinner together and were off to our first classes of the camp.   We then all shared in a worship and devotional time together before heading off to bed for the night.  Happy faces all around!
