I would like to thank our Burney, California hosts Cheri and George Chapman for allowing us to invade their humble home and for the great feasts we had every day! I especially thank them for the caramel coffee that they sent with us to the last camp as someone forgot a coffee pot!
The VBS was so much fun! The kids came in and enjoyed worship so much they wanted to join in the fun and became a "JR Worship Team on Friday!
For a small church, Solid Rock , is big on hospitality! 
Craft time Each group put on a small skit as part of thier day, these children called themselves the Rattle Snakes and were lead by De Angelo, Beverly and Heather. They are seen here preparing for one of their skits.

| As a delightful break from the day 's work we took a hike to Burney Falls itself! |

From VBS we went on to Redeem the Time- and Take back what the enemy stole from us!
When we do things we know we shouldn't we end up with changed lives. We can't go back and change what we did wrong, but what we can do is get forgiveness and direction from the Lord as to how we can go on to do the right thing next time! Even if your mistake was painting your hair pink!
At the J12 camp we sang songs around the camp fire, made omelets in a baggie and cooked them in a pot over the open fire, and had chocolate-less s'mores! We swam with the fishes and found shells in the rapids! It was a great group of kids and the discussions were good! We taked about giving up the wrong things we choose to do and taking more time to talk to God about things each day, starting up a daily Bible reading plan and following the ones available to us; so that we can grow closer to Him.
Most of all God was there!

| Did you ever do something you wished you hadn't done? "Mama T" died her hair pink to prove a point; we all make silly and even stupid choices but God can help us to forgive ourselves and move on to redeem the time we have and make wise choices. So be careful how you live. Don't live like fools but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. Don't act thoughtlessly but understand what the Lord wants you to do. Ephesians 5: 14-16 |
