History is the study of past events, particularly as it affects humanity.

History can be 10 minutes ago, yesterday or 6,000 or so ago.

We have made history

Retold history

Written down history

Read history

Tried to rewrite history

Denied history

Learned from history

Not learned from history

Ignored history

But whether we like it or not, history is our past. It can’t be changed, it’s truth, like it or not.

There is a song that I enjoy called Same God. It speaks of the history of God, His faithfulness, love, grace and mercy.

O Rock, O Rock of ages

I’m standing on Your faithfulness

You heard Your children then

You hear Your children now

You are the same God

You answered prayers back then

And You will answer now

You are the same God

You were providing then

You are providing now

You are the same God

You moved in power then

God, move in power now

You are the same God

You were a healer then

You are a healer now

You are the same God

You were a savior then

You are a savior now

You are the same God

Faithful back then

Faithful you’ll be now

You freed the captives then

You’re freeing hearts right now

You are the same God

You touched the lepers then

I feel Your touch right now

You are the same God

As you’ve always been, You will always be

You never change, You never change

 

“I am the LORD; I change not” Malachi 3:6

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17

The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever. Isaiah 40:8

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:8

Our week of EG camp ended last Saturday, July 23rd!  It was a great week of fun activities, laughter, Scripture memorized, Bible lessons and Vespers heard, lots of singing, and good conversations with counselors and staff!!

It rained only on Monday of the week which allowed us to have all of our outdoor activities the rest of the week.  It was hot BUT not as hot as in the Philly area.  We are in a shaded area with lots of trees and it does not get as hot as in the city or suburbs.

There was no illness!!!  This is a praise especially since the camp runs a day camp program the same time that we are running our camp program.  They had 60 children there at the same time we had our 46 girls there.

We had one little who was homesick but she remained at camp and had fun in all of her activities.

The girls had a great time in their activities.  We had Photography, Cookie/cake Decorating, Crafts, Play and Create, Card-making, Drama, Creative Writing, First aid, and all of the outdoor activities–the Pool, Archery, Air riflery, Climbing Wall, Goliath, Challenge Courses, Hiking, Creek Walking–and Vespers every evening with a campfire!

A bunch of our campers climbed all the way to the top of a 50 foot Sycamore tree and ring the bell. 

Good discussion during our Bible lessons and leadership times with Junior Leaders. 

Four of the 10 Junior Leaders graduated from the program on Friday night!!

Bible classes were great.

Over 20 of the campers and 15 staff memorized the memory passage for the week.  So happy that God’s Word was hidden in hearts. 

Every day at meals, the girls were asked if there was something they had done that morning or afternoon that they had never done before.  It was so much fun to hear the various answers.  Going in a canoe for the first time.  Learning to shoot a bow and arrow for the first time.  Climbing the tree or Goliath or the climbing wall.  So many fun experiences.  There is nothing like camp!

Our mission project was to support several families in war torn Ukraine.  So far we raised $1086.00!  PRAISE GOD.

It is the Lord who has begun the work in the lives of the girls and staff, and He will continue it until the day that He comes for us.  We planted–God will bring the increase.  Keep praying for the girls! 

Thanks for being a part of camp, by your prayers and your financial support!  God bless!
