Bubbles & Byes
Our final two days at Ox Lake were filled with joy and faith. After breakfast and chapel, we did our Thursday bible study themed “Give Thanks Always.” The story was that of Elijah and the widow. This led to some great discussion about trust and thankfulness.
Bubble soccer was one of the highlights of our day. We even got to play with an inflatable beach ball one of the campers brought! Later, we also played Exploding Enchiladas for an hour and a half!
Thursday night, we had an unforgettable specialty worship. Praying over each other brought some to tears. It just goes to show the amazing bonds we have made with each other this week. What a great spiritual experience to end our last full day together!
On Friday morning our bible study theme was “With You Always.” We read The Great Commission and talked about how we can go out into the world as Jesus’ disciples and be assured God is with us always! We said grace and then had some delicious brunch. We’ve prayed so many fun graces throughout the week! Then, we had some nostalgic time of reminiscing before it was time for closing worship.
It was such an awesome week at Ox! It’s so bittersweet to part with the people and this place at the end of it all. Our last two days of bubbles and byes are surely memories we will carry with us from this amazing place!
