Fathers Camp in Medina, TX

In July I attended a girls camp for girls at risk. There were about 21 girls there. I was asked to be the music worship leader. It was alot of work, but I think most of them liked the music. I tried to provide a variety of songs, from action, fun songs, as well as worship. The camp grounds are beautiful and the girls had a variety of activities ie. horseback riding, swimming, hiking Mt. Moriah, they loved that, crafts. They had approximately 1 hour a day of Bible study and devotions, and a class on Purity, presented by the nurse. One girl accepted Jesus and there were alot of girls that keft with a different attitude. The last night several girls shared stories of their life. I was very thankful for the home I was raised in, although not perfect, but, I realized things could always be worse. I left camp vowing I would pray for the girls as they all went their separate ways. It was a wonderful experience for the girls to be able to attend camp free and to be able do so many things that otherwise they might not ever get to do.

Port Lavaca

Today we drove to Port Lavaca, Comfort Point and surrounding towns. Port Lavaca has approximately 25,000 people and lined with beaches. The beaches and city swimming pool were filled. The City park was very pretty, it has many amenities, overnight rv parking, bird sanctuary, fishing, and sandy white beaches The temperatures are in the high 80's. Very nice weather. We ate at the Bay Side restaurant, great fish. I had Red Snapper, and Jerry had Flounder. Port Lavaca is approximately 30 miles from the RV park we are staying at. Tomorrow we will do some more sightseeing. This has been a very relaxing trip and are enjoying our motorhome once again!!
