What I Did For Summer

For a school assighment I need to write what I did this summer. Some of this will be a recap from some of my blog posts. Well, here goes:


I went on Thursdays to Logan to go shooting with Mr. Lewis; I started to make a Star Wars movie with my siblings; flew in a light aircraft for FREE; I spent a week in Oklahoma at Camp Yeshua; hosted two girls from Columbia; and I acted in a Robin Hood play.


Well, that's just about my summer in a nut shell.

Camp Yeshua Part Two-Tribulation Game

In CP {Camp Yeshua} We played a camp wide game called the Tribulation Game, simulating the tribulation. It started while every one was dancing. The C.D started to skip, then a voice came on, there was gun fire in the back ground, along with screaming and Sirens. The Tribulation game had started.
You needed to form a team of some one from each camp. {All the tribes were split up in camps, red, blue, green and yellow.} Then you needed to find a councilor with an Israeli flag. After that you and your team would race around the camp ground visiting different stops with councilors that would help you. You needed to gather up several glow sticks from each position, they would also give you a clue you needed to know where to go to next. The clues would lead you to random letters, which you had to de scramble to form a bible verse. The first ten teams to find the verse won the game. The whole there were more people with highlighters that would 'mark' you with it. They roamed the whole camp grounds, in groups, pretending to be teams, as loners, striking in the shadows. If you were marked to many times, you would be dis-qualified. The markers added a realistic addition to the game.
Sadly, my team lost. The game finished well after midnight.

Camp Yeshua-Part One

So, on July 10th I took off all by my self to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma for a week long Messianic camp for youths. {Youths. I hate that word. That's all the camp councelors called us. Youths. Yea, it got annoying.} I stayed with Monte Judah, and his wife. Monte Judah is the founder of Lion and Lamb ministries. Yea, I felt pretty special. Me and some one from Oregan stayed there over night and went to the camp site at around two. After getting situated { found what room I'm in, met my room mates, ect. ect.} Ephraim Judah {Son of Monte, director of camp} told the rules of the camp {After which one of his councelers would break it, like when he said "No cell phones, one of the leaders called him on his phone to complain about him being a cowboys fan.

The worship was led by a Messianic band, called Mason Clover.

All the youths {There's that word again. Man, I got to stop using that word!} were divided into the twelve tribes of Israel. I was in Judah.

Each day the 'tribes' would compete against each other in different out side games. Now keep in mind this is in Oklahoma. It didn't get under 100 degrees, and thats not counting humitity. Now I'm a Montana boy, used to 50- wheather, not Oklahoma weather. Oy gevalt, was it hot.
