Camp 3: Monday!

Can't believe our first day of Camp 3 is already over! We had so much fun yesterday! Here's a little overview of what we did!
We started with breakfast- biscuits and gravy!- and then the usual cabin clean up.
After cabin clean up we had chapel, where we talked about different water stories and how water affects our lives everyday. Funny thing- God put water in the middle of a lot of stories in the Bible, we're wondering if that was on purpose...
Each family group made a skit of their take on these stories and presented it to the group. When we finished chapel we learned one of the most important CGM traditions- the CGM line dance! Our youth did so well with it!



Of course we had a delicious lunch of corn dogs and then a glorious siesta (which at CGM is spelled Q-U-I-E-T) because we were all so tired from an already busy morning!
When we woke up we were ready for a full afternoon! We got to choose between 3 things: rapelling at Fiery Gizzard, swimming at Fiery Gizzard or staying on campus for Arts & Crafts for tie dye and the pool! All were a blast and everyone was having fun!








We washed the dirt off and then it was time for one of the best nights of the week- taco bar night!! And to make it even better, we had banana pudding too! Too much yummy for CGM to handle!

Next we moved to Eucharist! We are so lucky to have Father Terry Street from Memphis here for the week! Welcome Father Terry! The singing was so joyous and every bit of the service had the Holy Spirit present!




After Eucharist we learned how to play a game called Ships and Sailors!

Next we went into our Messy Cabin Olympics! We had Couselor Trivia, Name that tune, a frozen t-shirt relay and a Bubblegum-flour relay to name a few! We were laughing and running all night long!






We had a brief closing prayer and went to bed- we are so grateful for a good night of sleep so we can be ready for Tuesday!
