Longest Dad = Summer

June 21 marks the longest day here and it is when they say that summer starts. It is looking good with yesterday and today being lovely warm days. Making it to 24^C.

This is the sunrise which is at 4:14am. As you can see it is already very light. I don't know what time it gets light but it is early. I did go back to bed after taking the photo.

This is the sunset at 9:50pm. The sunset last for ages and will stay light for another hour. 

I took this photo the night before on my way home from Bible Study. It is taken at 11:30pm, to give an idea on how long the sunsets last for.

The longest day was a wonderful day here. So much was achieved. Mary and Stephen Noble arrived the day before and it is great having them here. Mary is programme director for the Summer. We have been working on the schedules and bouncing ideas back and forth. At the end of the day we had a time of singing and prayer. Mary played piano, I was on clarinet and Stephen joined us on the ukelale.


I am super excited that summer is here and camps begin. The camps start tonight with a Seniors Retreat, followed closely with the staff training beginning on Sunday afternoon. After that the camps look like this:
Teen Camp July 1-6
Kids Camp July 8-11
Pre Teen Camp July 15-20
Junior Camp July 22-26
Possible day camps for younger children July 27 and 28
Beyond Blueberry Trails July 29-August 5.


Please be praying that more campers will come and that God will also provide the staff needed. Please pray for wisdom for each of the leaders as we interact with children, that we might have insight into how to share Truth with them that these camps might have an eternal impact in the lives of children. 


We have so much to be thankful for, what a mighty God we serve.
