July 13- August 4th I was serving on assignment at lost canyon. Lost canyon is a young life camp in Arizona where we took kids about a month ago. I was blown away seeing the behind the scenes of camp. You can know that hundreds of people are volunteering in the summer, working very hard, to put camp together. All the work it takes is usually unnoticed yet the people are not discouraged. It is amazing to see so many people with servant hearts giving everything they have to see lost kids be found by Jesus.
One of my favorite parts had to be the young lives week. It is a young life camp for teen moms. The whole camp is turned upside down so each kid can experience "the best week of their life." We have strollers and high chairs everywhere. Child care workers paid the $500 to watch these babies all week for free. The Lord worked in huge ways. Generational bondage was broken that week. That is one of many examples of a normal week at a young life camp. Normal people going out of their way to make sure Jesus is shown to the last and the least. Each kid matters there. It is a little glimpse of heaven on earth.This experience made me love young life even more & very excited for the upcoming school year.
