Day 13 and 14

Day 13 was the day for each group to prepare their drama for the last day of camp. Throughout the camp we have gone through many bible stories and learnt lots of the meanings behind the stories. Today was the day to digest the stories and practise a drama. and here are the result on the Day 14.





Day 12

When we pray, we should listen to God.

Today workshop is to simulate listening to God's word. Each group was given a map and a set of questions and quizzes. The questions represent the word of God, the map represents God's guidance and the quizzes represent the hidden treasure of God.

So when we read the questions, we need to ponder the questions just like we need to ponder on the word of God. We can't just simply read the bible according to our preferences. We need to read step by step, chapter by chapter in order to understand more about God, so the map and the direction are both represent the right way of reading the bible and God will guide us through. The moment we are in the right footstep and understand what does the word trying to tell us, we will find the hidden treasure that God want us to receive, just like we figure out what are those treasures hidden in the quizzes.

Day 11

Budget planning

Each group were given a big fish, some cooking utensils and USD$3. Students need to prepare a with a dish. They can use the 3 dollars to go to the local market to buy oil, vegetables, fruits or any spices that they need. They need to spend wisely else they will be out of money. It's a good experience for them to plan with the limited money and try to bargain the price in the market.

Day 10

We praise the Lord for who He is.

God tells us about Himself through the Bible. We praise the Lord for God is Love, God is our rock and salvation, God is judge, God is everywhere, God is all knowing, God is our fortress, Lamb of God, etc... We can praise the Lord through various ways.

For today's workshop, we taught the students to praise the Lord through fruits decoration. Students were given various types of fruits and they were asked to use them to praise the Lord by decorate them with a theme. Example, if Light Green Group got the theme 'God is Judge'. They need express the idea of the theme and decorate the fruits to deliver a message of God is Judge. Some of the students performed well in this workshop, but most of the students need more practices in order to deliver the idea.

Day 9

God's creations

The lesson is about God's creations. In order to let the students to remember the lesson, we have made 10 types of activities such as"
God created air --- students were blindfolded to smell 10 different kinds of fruits, and then told us what each type was.
God created water --- With a thankful heart, students need to drink at least 10 liters of water per group.
God created sun, moon and stars --- students need to answer some questions about the planets and solar system.They also arranged the sequence of the planets in the solar system.
God created Vegetable --- Students were blinfolded and ate 10 different kinds of vegetables, then told us what they've eaten.
Etc....
The whole process of creation was devided into ten stations. Students enjoyed the process and had deeper impression on the creation process.

Day 8

God is our battle fighter.

In our daily life, God has given us many tasks. We need to pray and read the words of God to understand what are the tasks that we need to do day by day. There will be lots of challenges and difficulties. Therefore after prayer and surrender to the Lord, we must then work hard to claim the promises of God as God dislikes the lazy people.

Today's workshop is about battle games for the students to accomplish. We made 10 station games like, bicycle relay, bowling, football shooting, basketball shooting, eating competition, etc. Students need to work together as a team and work hard to win the games.
