Velocity - Thursday

I'm leaving today. It's bittersweet. I can't wait to get home and see my family, but to leave early blows. The best part of camp is the last two days. By today, our group has gelled and the kids have softened, connected and are really thinking big thoughts on their faith based on what they've experienced all week.

After session, we played volleyball. We weren't very good, but the game was so representative of our group. We laughed and had a blast and encouraged each other, no matter how well or badly people did. The only exception was one of the leaders (whose name rhymes with Kave Durt) that was a little overly competitive, but only because he wanted the best out of his people, or so he says.

We all felt bad for Kasey, pictured on the right, because she had played volleyball in high school and had lost so much of her ability in her old age.

Most of our group went canoing today and just skirted past the rain. This is the last update from me, so be sure and be at church next Sunday to see the slideshow of all of the pictures taken.

You can see the rest of my pictures from Thursday here.
