Last night, our camp pastor, Tom Richter, rocked... it... out! He communicated the gospel in such a plain and passionate way. Many decisions were made throughout worship last night and it was awesome to see how God is moving already this week. Now today, we're concentrating on going Beyond Your Performance, and learning that God does not judge us based on our actions. Today is a good lesson even for seasoned Christians to learn.

The energy is great so far, and we're all looking forward to continuing on through this week! Now time for lunch!

Day 1 has begun in full force! After everyone arriving safely and getting organized into small group last night, today we dove right in to going Beyond Your Position. Our Camp Pastor, Tom Richter, nailed it home with his awesome humor that we have all sinned and that separates us from God and heaven. We can't wait for tonight when we finish the story with Jesus as the Answer!

As for now, it's lunch time and off to POIs!!

I tell you what, Chad Lewis, our Camp Pastor this week, has been nailing it. Last night during worship, he spoke about the performance treadmill so many of us get on and run and run to nowhere to try and please God. We all began to think about going Beyond Our Performance, and now today, continued to see how this is going to help us go Beyond Our Plans to God's plans.

Unfortunately thought during Morning Celebration this morning, our resident pop star Joanna Louisiana was kidnapped by the evil Beardy and his sidekick Sideburns. Hopefully our superhero's Shamu and Wowzers can successfully return her before all of Morning Celebration is ruined!

And now, it's chili dog day!
