We had so much fun at family camp this year, our family agrees that it was the most fun we have had in quite awhile! The weather was wonderful, our hotel was great, we were surrounded by our loved ones and friends from our church and the guest speaker was amazing. We headed down a day early on thursday and spent some time on the beach and in the pool. Friday we helped set up the convention center (all the kids classes, etc.) and then headed back to the beach before service that night. The speaker, Dean, spoke on being thieves and robbing God of ourselves, it was so powerful. Saturday morning was the fun run. Justice did great, Keri and I ran with him. Pastor Ed placed 3rd overall, we were so proud of him!! Our GL Breanna motored in taking 5th place overall and 1st place for the ladies!! Way to go Breanna, you rock! Spent some time talking with our friends Scooter and Sara and their boys after the fun run. Then there was kite flying and sand castle building during the day. We spent some time down at the beach with Brian and Laura and their kids, we had so much fun watching the kids play together and just fellowshipping. The service saturday night was about the Holy Spirit and was deeply intense, totally amazing. Plus the kids did a dance we have been working on for awhile that had some fun hiphop elements to it, they did awesome! Sunday morning Keri and I went running. Then our family went to the service and helped tear down everything and load up the trucks to go back home, always the saddest part about family camp! I am so blessed to be a part of a family of believers, and I love love love GHCC. I thank the Lord to be part of such an everchanging, challenging family where I continually learn how to put my flesh to death and to pick up my cross daily and follow after Him.
