1. READ what gave Rob fresh purpose
“When I was a camp counselor during college, after evening devotionals in the cabin, the campers had the option to step outside and sit with the counselor one-on-one by the fire to talk about anything that was on their heart. These were some of the most powerful experiences I had, in that I palpably felt like God was right there during those moments. One 5th grade boy broke down in tears, and shared that he felt like he is really starting to "get it" as far as his faith and what God means and what He is doing in our lives.”

How can you encourage others to share their heart with you and experience God “right there” together?

4. PRAY God’s purpose-filled words over your day!
May your will be done, Lord! You said in your Word that I should “be still and know that you are God.” (Psalm 46:10) May I find quiet moments in my life to just be still in your experience. And to invite others into this experience of knowing you and being loved by you and living by faith. Amen.
5. Before you go…ENJOY this fun fact about summer camp!
The first summer camp was created in 1861 by Frederick W. Gunn in Connecticut. It was called Gunnery Camp (pictured here) as a place to engage in outdoor activities and develop physical skills. By 1918, over 1,000 camps like this sprung up in the U.S.
