We had another fun day at camp on Friday. We were planning on showing the Jesus Film but after reviewing the video some felt that it was really for younger children so we changed our plans for the day. And we know that God was in on it all. We had asked a Native American Lay Minister (David Marshall) to speak to our group. His testimony is just amazing. He could speak to the kids in a way that none of us could. Being native himself - we feel that what he said to the group hit home in a much closer way than coming from us "white" folks.
Everyone is tired and looking forward to a break. But we must not get to relaxed because there is more for us to do next week.
We ask for prayers for those traveling back home.....some to Michigan .....some to Sioux Falls....some to Montana........some traveling out for the second week of camp.
Also pray for these young people who have asked Jesus into there hearts:
Kelsey......JaeLynn......Tyler.......Joe......Diondra.......Miki......Jon.....Kathleen......
Karen
It really hits us that we have a huge responsibility now to keep in touch with these kids but in the same token....it feels good that maybe we will be able to
continue on with them in a way that they will become closer in their walk with
their Savior.

On a totally different note.......the last few evenings and mornings we have heard the native drums and singing right out our back door (approximately a mile and a half away). Yes, we are on the Reservation and it is all around us. The wind today is blowing very hard and right now it is actually cool out. We are wondering what is blowing in .....??
Keep praying for us :-) you are doing an awesome job!!!
Love to one and all,
Gary and Barb
