Day 7, 2nd Day of Camp, Miyajima

    ALL VIDEOS ARE NOW WORKING FOR YESTERDAY AND TODAY!
     Today was a slow day.  It was up at 6:30 this morning to walk to breakfast at 7.  We had our 2nd day of camp, which began with a massive soccer game for the whole camp.  There were four goals set up and the entire camp was divided into 4 teams, with four goals.  All the balls were in the middle and then everyone rushed the balls and tried to kick them into the nets of any of the other 3 teams.  It was mass confusion and a lot of fun.  The day consisted of 8 skill stations with groups rotation between the stations.  The younger groups played games mostly, but ones that emphasized dribbling.  The older kids had skill stations like shooting, passing, heading, settling, etc.  Periodically the groups would rotate between stations.  During breaks, it was either time for water, or for the players to do games like "Whose story is true?", singing fun songs, or breaking into groups to get to know each others names and a little about them.  Chapel time involved a skit about we can be tempted by wrong things and become "stuck" to them, and only Jesus can "unstick" us.  Spencer did his testimony today and Paul did the follow-up to the testimony.
     After camp, it was lunch, break-time in the afternoon until 3, and then off for some sightseeing to the island of Miyajima.  There is a temple, Torii gate, and wild deer that roam the island.  They certainly are not tame.  We took another picture in front of the Torii gate.  It was a fun time for all.  We could not find places to eat on the island, so we came back to base and ate at the food court.  The guys enjoyed dinner of Taco Bell, Burger King & Pizza Hut.
    Thanks for your prayers.  Back in Osaka, we had a player (Thomas) come down with heatstroke (we think) and he has been out of commission since then.  He hadn't really improved since then so yesterday he was taken to the hospital to be checked out.  He came back clean, and then today was well enough to travel with us to Miyajima.  It was the first time out of his room for about 4 days.
     Pray for camp wrap-up tomorrow and for the gospel message to be accurately and clearly presented.
