Summer camp for street kids

Our summer camp is over, the kids returned home yesterday from a great week of our first ever street kids summer camp at CH. We invited kids and teens from the streets, local slum neighborhoods, and our poor neighbors to camp out at CH, have fun, eat well, and learn about Jesus.

Check out this short video. Man, i miss these kids, they are hilarious and brought a new vibe into campus this past week. Watch and see what happened at the end!!

kids camp at CH

Yesterday started our last activity of summer before school enrollment next week! We invited 25 street kids/children from the slum neighborhoods and a few of our neighbors to attend a 5 day camp in CH. Our College guys are their big brothers for the week. See here some of the team building games of the first day!

Please pray for a successful week of loving on these kid, showing them a good time, and most of all planting a seed in their hearts. More to come later in the week...





Girls night in campus!

this is what the gals do when we have the campus to ourselves for a night! Hehe, thats a "mini-bonfire" since the real one got rained out.
The boys were on their overnight camping trip, so us ladies took advantage of the "peace and quiet" by having an all girls seminar and then cooking out for dinner!

Camping with the ladies




All ladies camping weekend on the beach... "Together as One, sisterhood in Christ" was our theme for all girls camping this past weekend. We studied about being ONE BODY, each of us a different part. We competed in teams for some games related to the theme, and the girls took a deep look at which "part" they are, and how each different part/person is needed to fulfill Christ's mission. Each team made a craft from natural things they could find to show the theme. 1st place went to team 1 for our lamp, made of different leaves and sticks, but it was more beautiful when the light shined thru the different type and colors of leaves, put together. Our last night ended with a dance off, even the 2 grandmothers got out on the floor!, and we enjoyed being in company of all women. The girls would say, "even though the mosquitoes were biting, it was hard to sleep, and even though the rain came down all night, we had a great time together as one... when can we go again?!?!"

sports fest at CH is arguably the best week of each summer. We divide into 4 teams, staff, neighbors, and kids, and compete all week long, with the purpose of bringing unity in campus. You have never heard our girls be so proud of our boys until you witness a ch sports fest basketball game!
