“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only
Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
John 3:16
Jesus is the ultimate sacrifice was the theme for the day.
We wanted the kids to understand that no one forced Jesus to take up the cross
and die for the sins of the world. Jesus chose that role willfully in order to
save every man, woman and child from the chains of sin, that we living today
may glorify Him and serve the Lord.
Day 6 was our last fully day with the kids before they went
home the next day, so we had to make it special and memorable. After lunch, we
set up a carnival in the town of Nazareth filled with different games and
activities where the kids can spend their coins, which they earned throughout
the whole camp, in order to win prizes.
During the evening service, we said our farewells and
thanks to all those that took part in this wonderful and blessed camp. Some
moments got emotional and we could not believe that the camp was coming to an
end. While the kids were busy singing, all the staff went back stage, grabbed
handful of sparkles in each hand, spread out under the tent and when the cue
came, we all threw the sparkles onto the kids. Before the service end, we
handed out glow sticks to everyone, prayed and walked over to the bonfire. Around
the fire, we sang songs, took pictures and talked until it was time for the
fireworks. Once the last firework went off, it was time to head to sleep.
