Last weekend’s Prayer & Praise Night and Youth Encounter at Camp Wonderland was awesome! Over 240 youth came all the way to Camp Lake, Wisconsin, to take part in a worship service that included a Justice Minute about Darfur, Worship, Testimonies, a Sword Drill and a message about what God sees when he sees us.

The Youth Encounter continued after the meeting on Friday night with games, snacks and fellowship in the Sharp Center. The next morning we began with Morning Devotions and Cell Groups that all talked about what others see when they see us. Youth were challenged not to hide their light in the light but to let it shine in the darkness (see John 12:44-50 and 2 Corinthians 5:20-21). The afternoon was filled with fun activities such as: Tubing, Rock Wall, Volleyball, Ice Skating, Cross Country Skiing and Board Games. After we had dinner together, everyone was on their way home by 5pm on Saturday. It was a great time and we already have next year’s Youth Encounter in the works.

Don’t miss the next Prayer & Praise Night on Friday, March 16th at the Englewood Corps. P&PN begins at 7pm!
