Camp in Huaral, Peru

This is the Single Adult group from our church taken to camp this summer. There was a total of 39 from our church (Abundant Life Baptist Church) this week and another 30 teens the previous week. We have heard of three Salvations and many other Spiritual decisions that were made at camp. After camp the church allowed us to share the testimonies and experiences of what God did at camp. To God be the Glory!

The bus trip took roughly 28 hours due to slow speeds and running out of gas and engine trouble.  
Always be sure to take your own toilet paper in Peru. It's not always the cleanest facilities either.
The mountain scenery was better to look at. 
We arrived to camp just at the end of registration time but were all dirty, tired, and hungry from the trip.



One of Matthew's favorite games at the camp was 9-squares where you knocked people out by getting the ball to fall through their square.

Camp is camp food. I will say though that the flies and the mosquitoes were bad.





There were many activities made available for the campers during their free-time. 


Basketball, Paintball, Table-Games, Swimming, Ping-Pong, Soccer, Volleyball, 9-squares, etc...
 Skit night was enjoyed by the campers as well.
 The "Blue" Macho train ended up winning the week of camp and tossed Matthew up in the air many times throughout the week.

Camp is a tremendous week of Spiritual growth. Each morning was started with a Bible Study through the book of Ephesians. The evening preaching was directed to start and strengthen ones walk with God. There was Cabin devotions with their counselors each night before bed time.






 God and I time was taken each morning as well.




The bus trip back to the mountains started with a smaller bus packed with just our church teens and their things.
Praise the Lord for a safe and blessed week of camp. Thanks to all those who donated to help support these teens in their Spiritual growth.
