Bluesky 13: Session 3

This week I got the amazing honor and privilege to leave the high school boys at camp.  The high school takes a camping and adventure trip that is a lot of fun and gives us more time to get to know them. I had a blast and was so blessed to get to be a part of some amazing God stories.  Unfortunately, I can only share with you briefly about them now.


One of the campers I also had back in 2010 and I enjoyed getting to catch up with him.  He has started following Christ since the last time I saw him!  It was amazing to see that he remembered almost everything about me: my major, where I'm from, specific things about that year at camp, and things that I said to him.  I was blessed to get to encourage him in his faith.

Another camper said that he had nothing to do with God before this week, but God opened up his heart and he experienced the presence and love of Jesus is a tangible way!  He couldn't stop talking about how he wanted to build on his relationship with God!

Another camper flew in from London just to go to camp Bluesky, which he heard about at a wedding in Pakistan!  He believed some of the right things, but it was clear to see that his faith was cold and more or less dead.  But this week, Christ set him on fire with passion for the gospel and knowing Christ!  He told me that this was the most important week of his life!

This coming week I have the smallest boys, which includes my discipler's grandson.  Pray that God will give me supernatural patience and love for them, and that I would truly find joy in the Lord at every moment.  Thank you everyone for your support, prayers, and encouraging emails!
