Rain or shine our Jr High Youth are up to the challenge of serving God by doing various projects around the camp. We have 20 youth and 7 adults who came up to Pinecliff this year to cut back the brush around the cabin and along pathways. (no worries parents - we've stayed far away from the near to flooding "creek"), picked up pine cones, cleaned the firepit, wire brushed and painted the outdoor chapel cross and stained the benches, painted the outside of 4 cabins and evened out the gravel so it won't go on to the paved driveway. And that was all today - Thurs 10 JUN.
On Friday 11 JUL we dug out boulders in the upper parking lot area and lined the driveway up to the parking lot with rocks on both sides. It looks really good!!!
Last night we did some fun activities to get to know each other better and then had a devotional where we talked about a woman who was dying and going to hospice, but didn't have any living relatives. We brainstormed ways we can help others and make other people feel needed, wanted and loved. We did spent time writing down things we could pray about for the "5 finger prayer" and then did a circle prayer which lasted over 25 minutes where we all prayed for each other. God is ever so present in our youth!! Later the rain stopped and we did our traditional campfire with SMORES.
Tomorrow there are more projects depending on the weather and later in the afternoon we will be joined by other Jr High Youth from around Utah for Jr High Camp.,
Blessings to you from our youth!!!
