At Camp Wakanda, we spend a portion of our day in "CE" - Christian Education.
We continue to focus on the scripture of the day through videos, activities, discussion and prayer.
For CE, this week in Camp @ Home we hope you and your "cabin" will use these ideas to:
connect with each other, grow in your faith and have a little fun.
Peace be with you!!!

Today's Scripture
“He prayed to the Lord and said, “O Lord! Is not this what I said while I was still in my own country? That is why I fled to Tarshish at the beginning; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and ready to relent from punishing.” - Jonah 4:2
Icebreaker
Today's them is "God Hears You" and our Icebreaker Video comes from the movie "Inside Out" ... I know I can identify with all of Rylie's emotions ... fear, joy, anger, frustration ... some days I feel all of them. Today, let us remember to bring ALL of our emotions, ALL of who we are to our God in prayer.
Learn Jonah's Story
Check out this video to learn a little more about Jonah's story ... we're going old school with this Veggie Tales video.
Prayer Activity
The Western Wall, Wailing Wall or Hotel is an ancient wall in the Old City of Jerusalem on the western side of the Temple Mount. According to Jewish tradition this wall is a remnant of the Second Temple in Jerusalem. The Western Wall is a holy place of prayer and pilgrimage sacred to the Jewish people. Visitors write prayers and petitions on slips of papers and wedge them into the cracks between the stones. Today we are creating our our camp "wailing wall" of sorts.

Another great prayer activity is to create your own Prayer Journal. Find an old notebook, a piece of stationary or start a brand new journal ... set aside time to be in relationship with God. |

Dear God,
Be with us as we go throughout our day.
When we're sad or worried, give us courage.
When we're angry or overwhelmed, help us find peace.
When we feel love or joy, help us to share it with the world.
We bring all that we are, wherever we are to you.
Amen
