We spent last week at Lorentess Resort near our home hosting almost 70 high school age campers for 5 days.  Our roles were mainly to assist our friends who were leading the camp. We helped with whatever they needed and Josh was deemed official photographer so we have lots of pictures! You'll notice some things are very similar to youth camps in the States and some things are quite different (washing your own dishes at the water pump for instance). Nonetheless, we enjoyed the week. I personally felt like it was a small spiritual retreat as I was able to spend a lot of time in the Word and prayer early in the mornings while things were quiet. Thank you to those of you who were praying for this week.
