Turkey!

Monday-
Christmas has come and soon will be gone. The staff opened the day serenading the campers with “Chestnuts Roasting on an open Fire…” and each camper received a handmade stocking full of sweets after breakfast. Classes and activities ran as usual – if anything is ever usual while Herr Director (Russ) Team Leader (Diane), and a few of the counselors went off to town to food shop for the trip and take part in what’s been dubbed “Manpri Monday” – the search for cheap guy capris – all the Euro-rage. The great laugh in this is that the only one to find a suitable (although not in Hannah’s eyes) pair was Herr Director (€3.98) – I know, hard to imagine! Lunch was turkey with many of the “fixins” followed by turkey soup for dinner. The kids were well fed today and the cooks are doing a super job.

Tonight we do some How To’s on spiritual warfare – the full armor of God and such. Pray that the kids will be open to what God has for them here this week and that we’ll be sensitive enough to them and to God to act in providing it.

Merry Christmas, English Camp! Wish I could see those Manpris!!! Hannah must be so very proud.

I'll pray for God's working tonight.
