Special Delivery

Today the kids received a wonderful surprise in the mail from Camp Blue Haven.  Both Abigail and Caleb memorized all fifteen passages for camp.  Each grade was expected to memorize a minimum number of selections with fifteen being the maximum.   They memorized all fifteen with no expectation of receiving any 'reward.' 
 
Today when the package arrived it was a big surprise!  Inside were two Bibles, each with the kids names inside and an inscription that it was awarded for completing all the memory work.
 
The leather covers have the beautiful embossed Camp Blue Haven logo on the front! Aren't they lovely!  The scriptures they memorized for camp were:
 
1 Peter 1:3-5
1 Peter 1:8 & 9
1 Peter 1:14-16
1 Peter 1:22 & 23
1 Peter 2:1-3
1 Peter 2:9-10
1 Peter 2:11 & 12
1 Peter 2:24 & 25
1 Peter 3:8 & 9
Psalm 34:12-18
1 Peter 4:7-9
1 Peter 4:11
1 Peter 4:12-14
1 Peter 5:5-7
1 Peter 5:8


Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart. 23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.  I Peter 1:22-23
