Camp Mashiach 2019

Camp Mashiach is a weeklong summer camp for Messianic teens and youth. Rebecca has been the camp nurse there for the last couple of years, but this was my first time going. 

This year, they moved from their previous location in Tennessee to a retreat center outside Cherokee, NC. Apparently, though there are hills, they're nothign like the last place. 

The kids had such a great time playing games, doing devotions, worshiping, and taking part in various activities together.

There were various theme nights where the kids dressed up in silly outfits.

This year, the boys got to come along and participate in the wolf cub group. they learned all kinds of neat survival skills.

Even the parents got in on the action!

It was so great for the kids to get to spend time with other kids who share their faith in Yeshua and in keeping the Torah. Looking forward to next year!

Camp Mashiach 2018

For a couple of years, our church, Valley of Blessing, has sent teenagers and adults (as staff and counselors) to a messianic summer camp called Camp Mashiach. It's an amazing place with pastors and tribe leaders that share our beliefs and values. There they teach all kinds of valuable lessons to the kids on matters of faith, personal growth, teamwork, worship and other important topics. The best part is that they manage to do all this serious work in a way that's engaging and fun for the teens. 

They do it through games, 

activities,

bible studies, 

skits and songs,

and fellowship.

This year, Rebecca went along as the Camp's Head Nurse, making sure all the campers were safe and well-cared for in the event of injuries. No question that they were in good hands there!

Rebecca and Olivia came back and told me in no uncertain terms that I had to come next year so I could experience it for myself!
