Safe Arrival to Camp!

Hello parents!

Everyone arrived safely to Rock N Water today. We left around 1 and arrived by 5 (long drive, but we made it!) Students and staff pitched tents and unpacked in time for a great dinner!

In the evening, we gathered by the campfire and heard from Mr. Murray about waiting on God. 

The plan for tomorrow is to do some clean up at the main Rock N Water camp as well as two other rafting companies down the road.

I will keep you updated as the week goes by!

Students are in good spirits and excited to see how they can be of service this week and bond as a group as well!

You can click the link below to see photos from today, but more will be added tomorrow since I'm having some trouble uploading them.

Thanks!

They will also be cleaning the river as they raft. Attached are some photos taken by the leaders on Day 1.  Thanks! Alex

Day 4 at Lotus

Dear Parents, Good morning! To follow up and update you on what students did after lunch yesterday, Day 3, students continued cleaning up the campground by raking the dried leaves.  Then they gave students a long break until dinner which students appreciated. After dinner, we had a time of worship and devotional. The rain was the only hiccup we had last night.  The rain crept into one tent a little more than others due to the amount of rain and the design of the tent, but we all slept through the night alright.  It is our Day 4 at the camp. Today a small group stayed behind to work at the Rock N Water site while most of us came to the Placer Height Baptist Church to lend help.  We are divided into groups of 6 to  clean out planters and put in new bark move cans of paint out of the shed trim back vegetation pick up leaves put back fence deciders cut back bush at back gate replace painted vents clean baptismal tub and  distribute Easter bags to the neighbors We will b

Day 3 at Lotus

Dear parents, To recap Day 2, students had a blast rafting yesterday.    We finished the day with a few worship songs and a devotional by the campfire.  It is Day 3 now.    We all slept well and woke up in time for a warm breakfast. We then had a quiet time by the river with a prompt to reflect individually on how God designed us and the things we take for granted.   In the morning, we were divided into several different groups to (1) build a big tent for a boat, (2) clean up the camp ground by picking up branches and burning them, (3) secure a tarp, (4) remove an oak tree that was blocking a pathway and more.  Students are serving wholeheartedly and are representing Christ and TKA very well. We truly appreciate your prayers too! Enjoy the photos/a video from last night and this morning. Unfortunately, there are no footages from rafting because no phones were allowed.    Also, fyi, almost all student phones are dead by now since there are no charging stations for students in case you a
