I went to a camp this week called Merge. Its a great camp! The worship was great and so was the message!
But this camp is different then Super Wow, its about mission work. We went to the Boys and Girls club in Tocca Ga. We worked with different age groups, K-2nd, 3rd-5th and 6th-12th. I worked with the K-2nd. I met a boy, his name was Nathan and he was 5 years old. I hanged out with Nathan this week.
Nathan lived in a small house close to the Boys and Girls club. One day his house completely burned down. Then his parents split up. His Mom lives in a hotel and his Dad lives with his Grandmother. He basically has nothing.
One day we were coloring pictures of Jesus. Nathan asked
"Is that Jesus?"
and I said "Yes. Did you know that God sent Jesus His only son to die on the cross for the sins and the mistakes we make? He loves you and me and wants us to love believe and follow Him. There is only one way to get into Heaven, and that's if you say a special prayer and invite Him into your heart."
Nathan said this "Can I do that?"
I said "Yes." !!!!
I helped Nathan say the prayer and now he's saved!!! Can you believe that?!?
The next day I Gave Nathan my Bible. It was like Christmas to him! He loved it!!!
This was the best camp I have ever been to! I'm so glad Nathan gave his life to Christ! And you know what that's what its all about!
