Camp Blue Haven

The McDermott kids are off in New Mexico for session 1 of Camp Blue Haven.  They will have a great time being surrounded by God's beauty and majesty.  

The week will be filled with cookouts in the great outdoors among the trees on the side of a mountain.

They will have sleep-outs under the stars after a devotional around the campfire.

One night will include a talent show put on by the campers and counselors.   There will be plenty of hiking because Blue Haven is surrounded by National Forest. Hiking in the surrounding area allows our campers to see God’s beauty while interacting with each other. 

Each day includes a chapel service led by the men counselors and their campers each morning.  There are also morning devotionals held in the cabins before starting the day.  Camper take turns reading the bible, leading songs and in prayer before breakfast. Two Bible classes and one music class are enjoyed by each camper daily.  Each evening concludes with cabin devotionals each night. 

There are plenty of great activities during the day Abigail's favorites include nature hikes, archery, volleyball, tether ball, nuke’em, and Frisbee.  She also loves the challenge course including a low ropes and high ropes courses.  The courses include a zip line, a giant swing and a Leap of Faith.  

The kids are in for a wonderful week! 

Sing for joy, you heavens, for the Lord has done this; shout aloud, you earth beneath. Burst into song, you mountains, you forests and all your trees, for the Lord has redeemed Jacob, he displays his glory in Israel. Isaiah 44:23
