Over the week of the New Year’s holiday, students from various states gathered to spend four days worshiping together, growing in their relationships with God, playing in the snow, and having a blast with their friends! Cold temperatures didn’t stop students from spending their afternoons at the snow tubing hill, playing paintball and laser tag, building sculptures in the snow, and so much more!
Morning Bible Study, led by staff from all over the country, focused on “Live It: Tell It” – sharing the story of what God has done in the lives of students. Bryan Bailey, camp pastor from
A big highlight of the week was the running of the “First Annual Human Dog Sled Race.” Each church provided a homemade sled equipped with four “dogs” (aka students pulling the sled) and one “musher” (aka a student in the sled). This offered a great time of competition between the church groups, not to mention a great laugh for everyone involved!
As a director, one of the most memorable things from this year’s first FUGE Winter Camp was watching students ring in the New Year in worship! With New Year’s Eve hats on and confetti flying, students were able to enter into 2010 praising God! What a beautiful picture of starting the new year off on the right track!
Life change happens at camp – this week proved no different! Many students professed Christ as their Savior for the first time. Others surrendered to ministry and made other commitments for their new year.
And, FUGE Winter Camps aren’t over yet – we have two more sessions in March. The first is March 9-12, followed by another session March 16-19. Groups can choose to stay on campus during the day or go skiing at Ski Santa Fe. We will work around your schedule! There is still room available – so register soon!
