Grit '08

On June 29th, I left for Grit at Island Lake Camp.
With Motto-X, a high ropes course and paintball, I had a blast.
During our seven hours of free time, we could swim, boat, skateboard,
roller blade, play carpet bowl and...... Blob!
Even with all those activities, I had time to sleep.
I was lucky enough to get put on Tom's team, yellow, and we completely
crushed the other three teams. My dad came to lead the 9th graders
and my uncle led my group until my regular leader arrived.
In comp, my dad's green team came in 4th place, but he still had fun.
He became friends with his group and led one to Christ.
Overall, 12 kids became Christians and 23 were baptized.
On Wednesday night, we all brought pillows to the church area
and had communion while worshipping for about 3 hours.
I got to grow in Christ while having lots of fun.
Go Grit!
