Happy Birthday to one of the Polish Counselors, Ewelina! (This blog post brought to you by Victoria Zidek :p) Today was another beautiful day in Poland as the MOST team taught the classes either about food or the body. Of course we started the day off with a wonderful devotion from Lisa which talked about how even when we are tired, God is always there to help and guide us. After that, we enjoyed a wonderful breakfast with the children and Polish counselors. We went to chapel, sang songs and heard a message about Baal and how Elijah was able to show his faith in God. Within break time many played outside or prepared lesson plans. Within each class, there were many activities such as the hokey pokey, duck duck goose or labeling body parts on the teachers! The children had a GREAT time going outside in the BEAUTIFUL weather. After we ate pickle soup and spaghetti ( many tables had seconds or thirds of the spaghetti!!). With another lot of free time, many of the children went outside to play or just chilled out. During the workshop times the children made friendship bracelets, sang songs and played volleyball. For dinner we ate dumplings with pork inside and bread. The night activity, to celebrate the Olympics, was our own version of Olympics with the kids playing games such as: Boot toss, relay, basketball, soccer, rock run and football toss. Resulting from good behavior, the children are now allowed to stay up until ten when many games and more good times will be had. It is hard to believe that camp is already half way over. The children, home made food and counselors are really making this trip the best it could ever be. Though some within the team may miss home, we will all definitely miss this wonderful place and the people. God is wonderful in all He does and the opportunities He has given us here will always remain with us :) GO TEAM U.S.A!
