Thursday

Last night was beautiful! The weather was gorgeous, the sky was full of stars! God's presence was truly here!
We had a picnic in the yard last night for dinner....cooked Polish sausage on an open fire! It was date night, so the couples got to go thru the dinner line 1st...
Then after dinner, some of the music groups that got together played for us out on the lawn. Then Exodus 15 played and did a great concert. It was about 60ish...so a jacket felt good.
After the concert, a few of us went to a darker part of the camp and watched the sky! It was SO bright with all the stars! The night was very peaceful and I felt very near God. I got to know some new girls last night too....Syliva, Kasha, and Maja. We had a good time dancing and listening to the music and then looking at the stars.
Today has been a very good day. The main session was just a question and answer time. It is amazing to realize sometimes that teenagers deal with the same issues no matter where they live. There were two main questions. One was about Creation vs. Evolution and the other was about how to put God in our lives everyday! Rufal(the camp director) did a very nice job answering those questions!
It's hard to believe that the week is about to end. We will have performances tonight and then most of the kids leave tomorrow.
Our group will be going to Lodz (pronounced Wooj) to do some shopping and sight seeing. Then Sunday morning we leave at 4 a.m.!!! The first groups' flight is around 7:45 and then the rest of us leave around noon. The week has gone by SOO fast!
God is good. He is opening doors for us all to talk to kids who are searching for Him. He gives us strength, He gives us the words that are needed at that time! I am thankful for His faithfulness!
I will write later....now time for one last choir practice before we perform tonight!
