Day Three


The week just keeps getting better and better! We had an incredible session last night as we heard from Jared again and learned how to live in rhythm with other people and the importance of asking for and giving forgiveness. Many of our students and staff decided that they needed to let people who have hurt them, know that they now forgive them. The theme of rhythm has so many implications and I am so excited to see where they will take it next! We are having a great time getting to know each other better as well as we hang out in the water and on the beach, eating laughing and worshiping together. This morning we has an eye-opening session about how to love the world as Jesus does. We learned about the things that BigStuf is involved in, like the 410 Bridge which aids communities in Kenya to give them clean water, education, food and shelter as they tell them about Jesus., as well as Compassion International, and already many of our students have pledged to sponsor a child in Kenya and make their life better. It is amazing to see the difference that these students are dedicated to making. They want to live a story bigger than just being an average middle schooler or high schooler, and they are getting an opportunity to be Jesus to the world, and put their faith into action. The band taught us a new song based off of Micah 6:8 which catalyzes the movement here at camp! Its been awesome. Tonight's session is going to be rad... the Big Stuff staff let Katie and Kurt get a little preview of tonight session which has a very funny guest, but we have to keep it a secret, so we will fill you in more tomorrow. See you then!

Can't wait until you are all home savely and can hear about your trip. Miss you, Z-man!
