Morning lesson was God telling us to forgive and to not carry the weight of hate. Forgive and give the burden to God. Our puppets had the boys being rude on the playground and their behavior was like animals. Rosetta got bumped which hurt her feelings. Revenge was derailed when the boys thought about what happened and said they were sorry. Joseph also had some bad times. People were unfair, however un-forgiveness smells like vinegar, and grows like a weed to choke us. To dig out the bitterness we need God’s love.
Now Joseph read the meaning of 7 fat cows giving 7 years of good crops and the 7 lean cows as 7 years of bad crops. When the famine hit, Egypt had stored food and Joseph’s family in Canaan were hungry. As a result, Joseph’s family moved to Egypt and Joseph forgave them. God made bad into good. Joseph was living in a place he did not choose, but God had a plan.
Lunch was great burritos.
Afternoon was a great birthday party. Games, balloons, and bounce house followed by cheeseburgers and chips. Kids got cupcakes with their pictures on them. The City Cats Not-Prime Players finished their story. Snookey was missed by the city cats country club. They admitted they were snobs because they did not welcome the Alley Cats. Snookey got them to accept one another and like them as they are. The new club became the Cast Away Cats. We are all the same in God’s eye.
Pastor Christine pointed out at camp we have all kinds of different people. Each person has a job and a roll to make camp run smoothly. When we are confronted with a person in rage, we should be calm. God sent Jesus to bring peace on earth. Jesus died to set us free. All should remember love from camp this week.
