Elementary School Boys Camp at our Home

IEric leads a weekly discipleship group for the first graders at church. They had their annual camp at our house!  It was great fun, with only one homesick boy, surprisingly no wet futons in the morning, and good lessons learned.  Check out the pictures below:

The camp theme was "Courage".  Here's David and Goliath after the main skit.

David and Goliath went to town!  The kids loved it.

One of their favorite treats was eating an aquarium -- blue jello with gummi fish and octorpus inside.

There are several neighbor boys who love to come -- almost daily-- and play outside with Eric.  They joined in on "spoons" and several other camp events.

The boys watching VeggieTales:  Daniel and why we don't have to be afraid.

The last morning Eric made 2 fires, and showed them what it must have been like when Elijah cahllenged the gods of the 450 prophets.  

While Eric was giving the lesson, the neighbor boys gathered outside the gate to watch.  Later, Kenta recounted the whole story to them!

Wow- do we have faith like Elijah to publicly challenge the gods we are up against?
