Wednesday at Ardgour
AG 106 is now well underway.
Everyone made it to camp after some delays and a few minor mishaps, but the kids were in good spirits when they arrived. However, that did deteriorate quickly since the weather wasn't very cooperative on Monday. It poured, to put it lightly. So everyone was stuck inside.
The Time Out went very well, which is positive. After settling in, the kids finally went to sleep after midnight. There needed to be a few changes to the sleeping arrangements, but that seems to be worked out.
Although there are still some kids who have lots of lip and the girls can be a bit sulky there is already tangible evidence that God is at work in these kids. Megan wanted to go home last night and cried her eyes out, is absolutely raring to get at the activities today and is up for everything. Leah, who was quiet as a doormouse, is now talkative and jumping around. Darren wants to help with everything - setting tables, cleaning, dishes, etc.
Tuesday night was a good night. Everyone went for a walk by the beach and went to sleep fairly early, so most people are well rested. There was quite a bit of rain this morning, however it is clearing now, so can you please pray for good weather for the activities today, which will be canoeing, kayaking, archery and some high rope activities.
Some of the kids are still being stroppy. They develop an attitude if they are told they can't do or have something. Also, there are still some remnants of the tiredness experienced the first day, so as a result Jordan and Ivan are having some difficulties getting along and their teams are a bit chaotic.
Phil Arbon is visiting the camp today and Sarah and Lynsey visited the camp yesterday (they are going on camp next week). Tonight will hopefully be a quiet night, with a movie planned.
