Mt. Pisgah – Senior Camp

We had a few days’ break after Junior Camp then Senior (Youth) Camp started up, June 23-27.

Bro. David giving the rules and regulations of camp so that everyone could have fun

Preaching/Teaching

We were blessed to have solid Bible preaching/teaching throughout the week of Youth Camp. In the morning teaching sessions, different men taught on the different aspects of a worship service: prayer, music, praise, and preaching. 

Bro. Ben, teaching on prayer

Bro. David taught on preaching.

Daniel taught on music.

The preacher for the week was Bro. Scotty, who used God’s Word to give vital warnings concerning our modern worldview and culture to the youth.

Throughout the week, we had morning and evening devotions. Different men taught the boys or group devotions and a few women taught the girls’ devotions.

Singing/Music

Bro. David urged the youth to meet the standard of singing that the Juniors had presented the week before. We’re not sure they were able to meet the volume or enthusiasm, but they tried. 🙂

Throughout the week, various youth played for congregational singing.

Also, with the fun songs of Junior Camp preceding us, it was requested to teach the other youth these songs.

There were many specials throughout the week given by the campers and others who attended the camp.

A new twist on Sword Drills: bid how little time it will take you to find a book and race against the timer

Bible Quizzes

Bro. David did an excellent job putting together Bible quizzes for the year. He almost stumped the youth, but they managed to answer most of the questions.

Activities

Again, Bro. Matt organized the activities and everyone had a blast.

They’re not campers yet, but they still had loads of fun.

An amazing water-balloon-filling invention

Again, there were some serious checkers and chess tournaments.
