Superbowl

As you can guess from the title and the photo, today's theme was American football. For this we had a very special guest - Robbie Shuman, who's on leave from his football coaching (oh yeah, he's a guidance counselor too) in Narragansett, RI and here in the Kandern area to serve at Black Forest Academy for a year - to put the kids through their paces. How many teams can boast a wide reciever who speaks French with a German accent wearing a green shirt, blue shorts and bright yellow sneakers.

It is a bit surreal to see a number of folks in the area with First Baptist Narragansett connections. There's us, three additional team members (well four if you count Jason Hodges who "attended" FBC till he was about six months old, the Shumans - now our neighbors, and Jay, Haley, and Zoe Ashcraft working at a sister English Camp. Way to go FBCN - never lose your knack for sending directly or indirectly!

Many conversations are growing deeper between staff and campers. Please pray that nothing would impede this process as it progresses. We're seeing some kids with a deep desire to experience God in a deep way.
