Super Kids 2

Tuesday:

After some time singing, the campers break up into cabins for some devotional time, what we call Super Hero University. Today’s was all about knowing what the Bible says. They spend time reading the stories of the super heroes in the Bible, like Moses and Jonah, and read about some of Jesus’ miracles. Then they have some time for memorizing today’s Bible Verse, 2 Corinthians 12:9. “But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.”

Just before Toes Up, which gives the kids a chance to relax while watching some Veggie Tales, we had this week’s edition of American Postman. Super heroes were competing for the title, trying to get the mail past the villain Copy Cat. With a few failed attempts, and some rather confused heroes, Rampage was named the winner. However, as he was still kayaking in circles, his prize of the mail was given out to the campers.

Tonight’s chapel focused on Nehemiah. Leane talked about his willingness to take on a job that was much too big for him in rebuilding the wall (Nehemiah 2 & 4). He prayed to God for strength and God did the impossible through him. The campers broke off into cabins and talked about how they would have felt in Nehemiah’s shoes. They talked about times in their life when it felt like they had to do something impossible and what they did about it.  Chapel closed with Philippians 4:13, “I can do everything through him who gives me strength.”

Today’s last activity was the Super Hero Challenge. The campers get to play games for tickets, have their face painted, eat some cotton candy and possible get their counselor wet at the dunk tank.
