Camp Fun with Neighborhood Children

Since coming to Dangriga in May, 2015, 
one of our ministries has been partnering with 
other missionaries and local youth leaders 
to minister to the children and youth in our neighborhood.
This weekend we had the privilege of joining this group 
for a fun time at a Christian Camp. 
The crowd of 65 gathered to get instructions and begin the games.
The group gathered in an air-conditioned room for worship and Bible study.

After lunch they played a messy game.
They sprayed water on a large plastic and added baby oil.
 Many of the boys wanted to play with that spray nozzle.
The teams lined up to start the fun.
Orelle humbly faces his team as they are given permission
to throw soft bananas at him for misrepresenting them as their leader.
Sorry man. It got a bit messy.
The fun began with a wheel barrow race.
Than they pulled each other backs down.
They added ketchup and mustard to the oil bath.
Horse back riding race next.
After chocolate syrup was added to the mess, 
each team raced tunneling under one anothers legs.
Everyone washed off in the river and we cleaned up their mess.
After we took these pictures we left the camp.
We came home to get a nap.
Our prayers remain with the group at camp as 
they continue their weekend fun and worship together.
