Working in the Summer

Firstly, sorry for not keeping you up to date. But...What have I been up to!?

After coming back from holiday in Brazil (I'll post some pics soon) we were thrown straight back into work for Jesus Summer Camp 2010 - the first camp that Jesus Warriors (together with Iglesia de la Cruz and the other churches in the area) have undertaken.

On the 10th of February around 1,300 young people from all across Latin America came together for four unforgetable days. Aside from challenging preaches, and intimate worship all the participants enjoyed live bands, swimming pool, paintball, bouncy castles, sports, electronic rave night and much more! (And also! A prayer tent, headed up by myself and a friend in the Church.. whit whoo!) The whole week there was blazing sun - even though the week before and the week after there was torrential rain and even flooding in the Capital - it was, in that aspect, different from English Summer Camps! Muuuch different from Soul Survivor!

I worked in 3 areas: artistic - designing and painting signs before hand, and helping an art workshop
prayer - we set up and manned a prayer tent
worship - singing with Jesus Warriors Worship


And man...! Afterwards...
I WAS SHATTERED! I'm still recovering from the cough I got on the last night.

It's so rewarding seeing all the behind scenes, (and helping out a bit), and then being able to see the results... It's incredible what God did! Quite seriously!

There are many photos on facebook... but I've coll
ected a few for you guys here:

Sounds fantastic! I can't imagine the havoc that paintball would run at soul survivor though!
