Camp Xtreme

Camp Xtreme was awesome! I was so proud of Cliff in his leadership throughout the week. Here are a few pictures of the kids that week.

This pic is of some of the guys at the Luau

The guy on the left is Bradley Maybin, he is the youth minister and came to spend a night one night of camp. The guy on the right is Brad, he is one of the youth interns and was a great help this week.

Sarah is Cliff's assistant this summer and she is standing with Rashthanic (sp?) who moved to the US recently from Iraq.

I took this group of kids hiking for one of the afternoon activities. We had a blast hiking the cliff. It was actually pretty challenging and very hot, but totally worth it once we made it to the top.

This was the group that led our music. Juli and Gary are the worship leaders from FBC Canyon. This was their second year to lead music for our group. They had their team of kids lead the singing with them and do all of the motions to the songs. The rec team from Hardin Simmons is up there with them in this pic. They were so great and a huge help!

I absolutely love this pic of Kaleen. :) She is our tiny sixth grader who hiked up to the top with he flip flops on. She was taking up the back of the group and looked WORN OUT by the end of the climb to do the zip line. She's adorable!

This was the first group of sixth graders to do the zip lines. Some of them were quite nervous, but acted all brave the whole time! I got to do the zip line after these girls and it was a blast!
Here are four of our sixth graders. They worked real hard to get cute for the Luau! We're gonna miss them in the children's ministry this year. From left to right: Rachel, Caroline, Meredith, and Madison. :) Fun girls!
This is Lindsey, Cliff's intern, and Martha his secretary. But Martha is really much more than a secretary. She was the Children's Interim minister before Cliff came. She is a HUGE help and so so sweet. We are very blessed that she continues to help out!
This is the stage. Cliff worked really hard to make it cool this year. One of the other groups made the awesome shadow pics and they had the banner made to use year after year.

Finally, this is a video I took of Cliff pumping up the group. I thought ya'll would like to see him in action. I'm so proud of my husband!! It is so much fun watching him do what he loves.
