Four Corner Campout
-June 21, 2011-Comments (0)
In the July 2011 issue, we outline a "Four Corner Camp" for you to do at home. What better way to end the week "at camp" than having a family campout?
Here are a few ideas for a simple campout, indoors or out!
- Make homemade tents inside (outdoors if you have appropriate equipment).
- Fire up the grill (or a fire pit) and have hot dogs.
- After eating s’mores from the microwave, watch campers perform Matthew 22:36-39.
- Follow up with lots of silly camp songs! Slowly move this to a time of worship, singing slower songs. "More Precious Than Silver," "I Love You, Lord," and "Shout to the Lord" are good for reflection. If anyone in your family can play the guitar, all the better!
- If you can go outside, spend time looking at God's creation and being in awe of it.
- Remind campers that God desires our heart, souls, and minds. Pray, asking God to make this truth a reality in your family.
